FAQs
Does the hose pipe come with the reel?
No, the hose pipe is not included with the reel. This product is for the reel only, designed to hold a standard 15M garden hose.
What material is the hose reel made of?
The hose reel is made from premium PP plastic, which is designed to be non-rusting, anti-freezing, and anti-shattering for long-lasting use.
How long is the hose that can be used with this reel?
This reel is designed to accommodate a garden hose pipe up to 15 meters in length.
Is the hose reel easy to store?
Yes, the hose reel is lightweight, portable, and foldable. The empty reel can be folded to save space during storage.
Can I leave the hose reel outside?
While the material is durable and weather-resistant, it is recommended to store the reel in a dry place, especially during harsh winter conditions, to prolong its lifespan.
How do I connect my hose to the reel?
The reel has a water inlet designed for standard garden hose fittings. Simply attach your hose securely to this inlet.
What are the benefits of the water conservation design?
The robust design ensures water flows directly into the hose, minimizing leaks and promoting efficient water usage in your garden.
Troubleshooting
Hose difficult to wind onto the reel.
Ensure the hose is not kinked before winding. Check that the hose diameter is compatible with the reel. Distribute the hose evenly as you wind.
Water leaks from the connection point.
Check that the hose is securely attached to the reel's inlet. Ensure any washers or seals are properly seated and in good condition. Tighten connections firmly but do not overtighten.
Reel feels unstable during use.
Ensure the reel is placed on a stable, level surface. If the hose is fully extended, the weight distribution might affect stability; try to keep the reel closer to the watering area.
Crank is stiff or hard to turn.
Check for any debris or obstructions around the crank mechanism. Ensure the hose is not caught or twisted. If the issue persists, lubricate the crank pivot points with a silicone-based lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This hose reel is designed to work with standard garden hose fittings. Simply attach your chosen 15-meter hose (not included) to the inlet and ensure it is securely fastened. The reel itself does not require assembly; it is ready for use out of the box.
Compatibility:
Compatible with most standard garden hoses up to 15 meters in length. Ensure your hose diameter is suitable for the reel's winding mechanism. Standard hose connectors will fit the reel's water inlet.
Care:
To maintain the reel's longevity, clean it periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Store the reel in a dry place when not in use, especially during freezing winter months, to prevent potential damage from frost. Ensure the reel is dry before folding for storage to avoid mold or mildew.
