Do they still do this do you know?[/quote:r4aftdbb]

Woodies in Sallynoggin had it in stock last week.[/quote:r4aftdbb]

Sweet, I'll take a jaunt up to the Glasnevin one over the weekend. Which aisle should I be looking for it on?

It took about 30 mins total. Just make sure you have the right size band to fasten the hose to the pipe - I didnt have the right one on the outlet and it gave a bit of a squirt when I first used it!

The chadwicks one is coiled, but with a diameter of about 0.75m. The woodies is coiled much tighter at about 30cm diameter. I used a tub of protein and just bent it around that. The rest of the time was spent bending the outlet up from the bottom (you need to be super careful here) and then curling the inlet and outlet out towards the hose. The hose just slots on then.
