Hozelock 40 m Floor-Standing Fast Reel

I decided to treat myself to one of these as a few friends have got the self wind version. So far I am very happy. I decided to go for the manual wind as I figure, possibly there is less to go wrong than the self wind mechanism but you do get a 5 year warranty (that you need to register on receipt). It was pretty straight forward to install but you will need a decent drill/drill bits for the wall, but you can always just leave it sat on the ground. As other reviews have mentioned the pipe does seem to have a habit of kinking, but equally it is easier to unkink than other hosepipes I've used. The manual wind mechanism is very smooth and is so much easier than your standard hose reels. I got the 40m version so it will reach all parts of my garden front and back. Definitely a good investment.

Instructions could be improved upon, but we put this together and put it up in an hour which was longer than it should have taken as we had some really crap tools to fit it with!It looks great and does the job and is easy for my Mum to use and retracts back nicely out of the way.

Would be 5 stars if they offered it in green as they did in the past. Bought to replace the same item (no need to change the wall fittings…. but I did as the old ones were faded ). It was circa 10 years + old and was just starting to leak.

Preiswerte und schön große Rolle mit 40 Meter ich bin sehr zufrieden . Sie lässt sich sehr schön einkurbeln und die Wandhalterung schnell anzubauen.

Mycket bra produkt. Har haft en sådan innan den blev för gammal.
