Product Information

Full details

This B&Q Hose Reel is designed for gardeners with large outdoor spaces who need a reliable and convenient way to manage their garden hose. Its key benefit is the 2-in-1 functionality, allowing for both wall mounting and freestanding use, providing flexibility for any garden layout. A potential caveat is that the included hose is 25m, while the reel has a 45m capacity, meaning users with longer hoses may need to purchase a separate one. This product offers a total capacity of 45 meters of 12.5mm hose, comes fully assembled, and features a sturdy winding handle for easy rewinding.

FAQs

What is the maximum length of hose this reel can hold?

The hose reel has a total capacity of 45 meters for a 12.5mm diameter hose.

Does it come with a hose?

Yes, it includes a 25-meter, 12.5mm premium multi-purpose hose.

Can I use a hose larger than 12.5mm with this reel?

This reel is designed for 12.5mm hoses. Using a larger diameter hose may reduce the total length that can be stored and could cause winding issues.

How do I switch between wall-mounted and freestanding use?

The reel is designed for either setup. For freestanding, use it as is. For wall mounting, use the included brackets to attach it to a suitable surface.

Is assembly required?

No, the hose reel comes fully assembled and ready to use straight out of the box.

What materials is the hose reel made from?

It is constructed from high-quality, weather-resistant materials designed for long-term outdoor use.

How do I clean the hose reel?

Wipe the reel with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Hose is difficult to rewind

Ensure the hose is not kinked or tangled before winding. Check that the winding handle is properly engaged and that the reel's axis is clear of debris.

Hose reel leaks at the tap connection

Check that the hose connector is securely tightened to the tap. Inspect the washer inside the connector for wear or damage and replace if necessary.

Winding handle feels stiff

The reinforced axis may require lubrication. Consult the manufacturer's guidelines for appropriate lubrication if available, or ensure no obstructions are preventing smooth rotation.

Unit is unstable when freestanding

Ensure the hose reel is placed on a firm, level surface. Distribute the hose evenly on the reel to maintain balance during winding and unwinding.
