    Honest review there Moho vlogger/Graham. I don’t have one of these but have been looking at them, I wondered about the floppy tube and wanted to see how other people got on with them. I have now made my mind up and will stick with the firm one like yours with is easy to push in, you don’t want to be thumbing a floppy one in. Great review, Martin

    Hi Graham. I used these last weekend and had no issues at all. I did trim them prior to first fitting them though. Thanks Phil

    I have recently bought the Colapz kit. I have to agree with you. It fell out of the waste several times when away at Blakemere. I have cut two pieces of that ribbed tube to strengthen it. Honest review there mate. Ian...

    The guys at Colapz are very interested in getting their products right and I am sure will listen to what you have to say. I spent some time with them at a rally talking about their products and what was good etc, so I know they are 'on our side' as customers.

    • @CaravanVlogger

    Hi Graham, Strongly suggest you watch Dan Trudgians vlog re waste connectors. It's the absolute best set up - small, rigid but flexible and best of all - cheap. The whole thing cost £6, bargain.

  • @Bernie_Outdoors

    I'm with you Graham, too floppy and I had several occasions where the pipes just fell off when maneuvering the waste tank to empty it by just touching it. I've gone back to a solid pipe connection which still connects to the Colapz Waste Pipes as well which are great.. Love Colapz stuff, but this one didn't hit the mark for me either.

    Nice one for keeping it real again. Have patience though, MV was clearly drunk as usual. I've yet to use our outlet flexi pipes, but will find out next week. Look forward to retrospective review in 2yrs on how you coped with it. Cheers. Martin.

  • @iancampbell7684
    @iancampbell7684 4 роки тому

    I agree don’t really see the point of that connector and I use the one you had originally. I recently bought the collapz flexible drainage pipes for waste water and was delighted with it. No long lengths of pipe to lose around the van and easy to store and set up. Just an update on the e and p leveller I had fitted to my van, I used it for the first time last week when away and it’s a delight, just to press a button and watch the van self level to perfection. Yes an expensive toy but will be well worth it over the coming years. Keep the videos coming as I find them both informative and yes even humorous lol

      Thanks for watching Ian and thanks for the E&P update. Pleased it's working well, I must say, it's certainly something I'd look to getting. However, at the moment having 4 movers on my twin axle, instead of 2 is my priority! Please don't tell me you think I'm humorous, it'll only go to my head haha 😊Thanks, Graham

    Well done Graham, like you, I rate Colapz stuff very highly for quality products and customer service! It is refreshing though to have an alternative review of a product. You did not trash it, you simply explained in your own inimitable, internationally renowned CaravanVlogger manner, the issues you have had wit a product you purchased in good faith... 👍🏻
    I guess most would rather not post a negative review for fear of upsetting the manufacturer, supplier, whatever, but a real world commentary, such as yours, is just as valuable an asset to those of us looking to purchase stuff for our ‘vans & travels... 😉
    By the by - I’m not sure trimming that hard pipe to stuff it in your floppy bit will necessarily work, as it may be a similar diameter to the waste outlet and, consequently not fit? I could try it on mine, but is is dark ‘n wet out there... 🤷🏼‍♂️🤪

    • @CaravanVlogger
      @CaravanVlogger  4 роки тому

      Thanks for watching Rog. I’m glad you understood where I was coming from. I think if anything I was saying it was me rather than any real issue with the product. Thanks for the kind words too Graham

  • @leighrowberry9651

  • @robswiseways5697
    @robswiseways5697 4 роки тому

    You would think Colapz trialled this before releasing it to market. Or as you say Graham, maybe it should have a short rigid pipe pushed in the ends of the floppy bits. I'm thinking of getting those Colapz extending waste pipes. Are they any good? Good review of the floppy section. Take care. Rob

    • @CaravanVlogger
      @CaravanVlogger  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching Rob. Yes the extension pipes are really good. Other people have found the waste connector works fine 🤷‍♂️Graham

      The waste pipes work great but the pegs to hold them up are a ridiculous price.

  • @jasons2290
    @jasons2290 4 роки тому

    I’m with the same view,I purchased it from Colapz but found it useless and if you use it with the waste pipe kit they do it just falls off with the weight.So it’s rubbish but worth a go.

  • @AdventureCaravanners

    Hi Graham,
    I’m just about to purchase the colapz outlet pipes. But I’m very glad of your vlog.
    I have made my mind up to stay with our strong plastic pipes. Good vlog pal. 👍👍

  • @andrewpaley9914
    @andrewpaley9914 4 роки тому +1

    Colapze seem to be a firm that invented a new solutions for problem that have already been solved perfectly well. You never mentioned the price how does it compare with the solutions that have been on the market for years?

    • @CaravanVlogger
      @CaravanVlogger  4 роки тому

      Thanks for watching. They're about £15, so you can get cheaper solutions

    • @andrewpaley9914
      @andrewpaley9914 4 роки тому

  • @randyfrog1969
    @randyfrog1969 3 роки тому

    Sorry Graham, great vid but I don't agree. I've used the waste pipe connector this entire season and it hasn't been an issue. They do take a little bit of practice to get in easily but once you know how it's fine and the end result is far neater than 'orrible white plastic piping.

    • @CaravanVlogger
      @CaravanVlogger  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching. I've been using it again recently. I need to do another vlog on this maybe, giving an update. I spoke to Colapz about it and it's designed to not fall out. Apparently they'd heard complaints that the other type tended to fall out.... Graham

  • @HereWeTow
    @HereWeTow 4 роки тому

    I have never used the waste pipe adapter and I didn’t see the need for it for us. I have just bought the waste pipes and a small adapter for the Motorhome as we are on a serviced pitch for our first trip. As there is no MH point on this site I thought they may make life easier. I most say all the Colapz stuff we have has always served a purpose but I guess we haven’t bought items we wouldn’t need anyway. I was wanting to try the Trunk before we sold the caravan, we wont need one for now. Thanks for the vlog! Karina

    You have your original one set up incorrect, the swept bend is supposed to follow the flow of water. You currently have one flow against the other.

  • @scotiajinker8392
    @scotiajinker8392 4 роки тому +1

    If it’s made by a company that’s made its name by collapsing things why in gods name do you need to cut bits off? Surely the space between the 2 outlets should “colapz” as should the bit that goes into the wastemaster. You’re absolutely right, the 2 bits that go into the waste outlet are far too flexible, they also look the wrong diameter. Tbh I’ve found 99% of colapz stuff pointless.
