Flexi tubs

[Andy Burns]

Does anyone sell "better" versions of those flexible builders rubble tubs? Various ones I've bought all seem to crease/crack/rip after about 12-18 months...

My yellow "Gorilla tubs" bought in 2009 lasted 10 years before the first one cracked. It was stored in the shade and, perhaps crucially, had only occasional use for heavy stuff:(

Still sold by CPC under same brand/part nos but I've no idea if they are the same.

In passing, I see the price has increased by 129% - rather more than the RPI (58%) and CPI (40%).

Certainly look similar to the first ones I bought, whether or not they were Red Gorilla, I wouldn't remember, they didn't last as long as 10 years though, but they were left outside with rubble and rainwater in them for many months.

I see toolsatan sell them.

Actually, they're a bit sneaky, the 75l they sell is Gorilla, but the smaller ones are generic, I'll take those back and spin past Mole stores for some more Gorillas.
