Product Information
Full details
This B&Q Hose Reel in black is ideal for users with limited space, such as those with motorhomes, boats, or caravans. Its key benefit is providing a compact and convenient solution for storing up to 10 meters of flat, food-grade hose, addressing the challenge of hose management in tight environments. A potential consideration is its 10-meter capacity, which may be insufficient for larger areas.

Troubleshooting
Hose not winding evenly
Ensure you are guiding the hose flat onto the reel and distributing it evenly across the drum as you wind. Avoid letting sections bunch up.
Reel feels stiff
Check for any debris caught in the winding mechanism or on the drum. Wipe the reel with a damp cloth and allow it to dry thoroughly.
Hose tangles upon unrolling
Make sure the hose is fully wound onto the reel. Gently pull the hose and allow it to unspool without pulling too hard or quickly.
