We have some bamboo condos that are 5 years old. We are just now starting to see some of the smaller branches start to break off when you hang up in it. They are still going strong and catching fish off them. So, all in all, we don't really know yet how long they will last. Definitely longer than most wood brushpiles and easier to fish.
