The Best Automatic Hose Reel

This is the hose reel that earned The Best rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it had the most consistent automatic retraction time without losing any durability or functionality. Its 114′-long hose performed with an average retraction time of 10.37 seconds with a 1.14-second variance, while other models varied as much as 2.63 seconds or broke entirely. Easy to use, the reel pivots from side to side after easy wall mounting using the included hardware and prevents tangles with a hose tracking system. An adjustable clip prevents full retraction when keeping a length of hose extended is desired; hose guide allows retraction from around corners. Quick connectors provide easy swapping of spigots and nozzles. Swivel is made of sturdy, lightweight metal while the housing is made from high-quality plastic, unlike other units that used inferior materials. 11/2′ H x 11/2′ L x 1′ W. (39 lbs.)
