Colapz Food Grade Space Saving Watering Can From £12.35 Delivered (1 Viewer)

[Deneb]

Really pleased that you like yours. Would you like another, brand new and completely unused? £12 and it's yours! Or anyone else for that matter who might be interested

Yes please I'll PM you

 

[Wombles]

@Deneb thank you for your feedback & like the idea of filling a bucket at the same time to refill the watering can

For anyone considering this then the Colapz buckets are £19 (less 10% with code) so cheaper to buy a second watering can as they have a bucket function with blanking cap as well plus then have some watering can spare bits in case any get lost

 

[Deneb]

Unfortunately @ludo and myself are having logistical problems re collection, so if anyone else would like to jump in and do a deal, don't worry about treading on my toes.
Honestly, £12 is a bargain for one of these Colapz watering cans. I only want it as a spare. Ignore @ludo 's review and make him an offer

I've been using mine for the first time this weekend

Any suggestions on how to get the inside of it dry, before folding it up again??

We just either leave to air dry or if need to collapse it then wipe it out & pop a piece of kitchen roll in the bottom to suck up any excess moisture but must remember to remove it at a later date! I do the same when packing away our electric kettle after use. Can just rinse with fresh water before using again if concerned there has been any trapped water.
Which one did you go for?

 

[Burgo]

I was well up for one, but they wanted £23.95 delivery for Spain!!!

Can I just ask, what is the issue with food grade v non food grade? Obviously something leaches out, but what and how dangerous is it?

Can I just ask, what is the issue with food grade v non food grade? Obviously something leaches out, but what and how dangerous is it?

If made of polyvinyl chloride(PVC), it contains harmful lead that leeches into water in levels deemed unsafe to drink.

ie carcinogenic .. same reason not to use garden hose for filling

Searching on the web it seems that current thinking is that the risks are minimal but then again Glyphosate (Roundup weedkiller) was meant to be safe but now thought to be carcinogenic - we used it for years on our gravel driveway It doesn't cost much to choose a food grade option rather than one that isn't so for us having lost family to cancer any known risk is worth avoiding if possible even if it's low.

Thanks, but Roses looks like it's over 1000km from us - its way north east of where we are! I've come up with another way to get it over now, as someone we know is coming over so I'll get it delivered to them. Ta muchly for the offer, though.

Glad you got sorted

 

[John Mee]

I suppose if you are full timers it might be an issue, but it doesn't worry me over much.

Having said that, I need a hose for onboard the van, so where there is a choice I will go the food safe route.
I am a potter (40yrs), using harmful and carcinogenic substances all day, I have ridden motorcycles since I was sixteen, I don't think occasional micro particle of pvc will hurt. I had a pvc mac when I was a kid and a I wore a sou'wester!

 

[Stewart J]

Arrived today, great service, it will be put to the test this weekend on the Dumfries Rally. Well pleased.

For those that like the watering can - you might also like the tough freestanding, wipe clean bags here https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/foru...chargeable-shower-pump-water-bag-more.173492/ as in the same type of material & fold up small.

 

[Wombles]

UPDATE: Although FFX have now completely sold out can still buy the 2 in 1 watering can for £12.99 delivered here
Some might prefer it in the dark blue option:

The darker colour might be good for leaving full of water in the sun to heat up for washing later?

 

[Wombles]

If prefer something other than bright or dark blue then still stock of the original 2 in 1 watering can in pink & black on Colapz Clearance section of their website £14.50 plus £2.95 delivery so total £17.45 - the discount code doesn't apply to Clearance items.

UPDATE:
The Colapz navy blue watering cans are still available at £12.99 here
Xmas pressy for the motorhomer who has almost everything else?!

 

[Wombles]

Colapz https://colapz.co.uk/shop/ do have a free delivery code XMAS2018 for orders over £25 (except pre order items) until Xmas Day & although their prices are high for the latest model of watering cans (£35 ) there they do have a few handy items at good prices. If you are a C&MC member then worth trying your 10% club discount code to see if they both work or if that saves more than the free delivery code.
We have a couple of these silicone utility mats (£9 each) as ideal for protecting the glass cover on the sink/hob & to prevent scratches on the worktop or table.



Also like the utility bags (£14 & £19) - the smaller one makes an ideal wipe clean shower bag whilst the bigger one works well to hold water. More info. about these products here https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/foru...ower-pump-water-bag-more.173492/#post-2939627

UPDATE - watering can still available in dark blue - in stock here at £12.99 delivered.
