If you have limited experience of bending a double set isn't going to be an instant success, normally. Persist with it, you may waste some conduit but it will be satisfying when you achieve it.

Exactly this. It's worth taking the time to learn skills, rather than take shortcuts.

My experience of plastic conduit is limited to a single occasion, but I decided to go all in with a double set tight up against a 90. Might have benefitted from beginners luck, but it turned out alright on the second attempt.
 
I’ve seen people use heat guns on a few videos to slowly bend the conduit. But I’m nor sure if it’s a fad. I’ve bought Marshall Tufflex Conduit, it feels good quality.

I know I’ve bought the conduit and the FP200 2.5 was free. But I may return it if possible and just buy SWA as 1.5mm2 3 core would be more than enough. But then again I won’t learn anything taking the easy option.
