Default Diluter problems

For more years than I like to think about I have used Diluters from
Access Irrigation, and never had any problems with the,
BUT
I bought a new one about 2 months ago. They have changed the design and
the Bottle has a much narrower neck than the last model, it lasted about
a week before I started getting a spray from the top of the thing, turns
out the bottle had split in the neck.
That's because you are using a water pressure of more than 3 bars, You
must not close off the water at the outlet end
They supplied another bottle at cost and after less than a week that has
split in exactly the same place.
Why, the hose kinked and it took me all of 30 seconds to get to it.
The bottle has a pressure relief valve but it's not for sudden surges of
pressure and doesn't do a thing.
I'm now looking for a different make of diluter or feed injection system.
The other alternative is to get pressure regulators
Any ideas?
