Monument vs Hilmor vs Rothenberger

[ShaunCorbs]

I've had my hilmor about 11 years. Worn and battered but still does the job. However I have gone through a few runners (if that's what they are called)?

That site ontop of the pipe ?

That site ontop of the pipe ?

Yes. I always call them runners even though I know they are not.

 

[Harvest Fields]

Are they called Guides?

Yes. I always call them runners even though I know they are not.

Guides or slides from my part of the world

Guide here also.

I have a Rothenberger but its not very good the guides are crap. I inherited a very nice old one from a retired plumber. Unfortunately I don't know what model it is but fantastic, good quality.

I'm looking at buying a floor standing one. Saw one being used the other day. They are an awesome bit of kit, just bloody expensive for a decent one.

You can pick them up second hand.

 

[Harvest Fields]

I know. Always weary of second hand though as they are still about £100.00. Will be gutted if I only get 3 months out of it.
