Retractable Garden Hose Reel 5/8 in x 65 ft, 2025 Upgraded Dual Ratchet Lock UV & Freeze Protection Brass Seal Slow Retraction Anti-Tangle Hose 180°Swivel Reinforced Scaffold Wall Mount

Good length, operates well. Quality hose. Cleaned up my shop!

Update after a couple months use: The spray nozzle did not last long. We like it, but the thumb lever stopped turning the water on. I am getting a little concerned about the “mouth” of the real. It seems to have weakened exposing a metal rod. The hose catch is still stopping it but you can see from the added pictures that it is going in a bit more now. No stars off for now but something we are watching. The unit has seen a lot of direct sun and hot days and so far the housing still looks good.I recently built a new double wash station for our horse farm. So far I’m happy with how this unit has fit into the new build. Easily swivels to the left or right centered mounted between the two wash bays. I went with the 5/8 hose as volume is more important than pressure or spraying distance in this case. I was also hoping the hose would be sturdier than 1/2”. The hose has already been stepped on a couple times by individuals not retracting excess…but no damage that I have found. I originally wanted a shorter hose length but 65 was the shortest available and it has proven to be handy having the extra. The plastic on the unit does seem to scratch pretty easy, even where the hose stopper catches on the face of the reel, but I’m not taking any stars off for that just yet. This is probably getting more use than a typical home user. I’m not sure if a pin was supposed to come for the rod that holds the reel to the base, there is a hole for a retaining pin but one was not included. Again, not really a big deal as I had one that worked perfectly. I have the gray colored unit and it is facing due East so the UV resistance will definitely be tested. I figured black would likely fade to gray eventually anyway. Will update if anything comes up this summer as it gets more use.

Good product works as advertised, however sometimes the reel gets jammed but a little bit messing with it usually get it back on track.

Worked out perfectly were I needed it

Bought this 3/1/2025, it started leaking from the bottom of the reel 6/3/2025. Went to contact the seller and their provided email address kicked back as not real. Very upset about the quality of the product and customer service for the price

I purchased this in the fall, but waited until spring to install it. As my home has aluminum siding, I attached a 2x4 to the house and then screwed the mounting bracket to that. I did drill pilot holes and used an impact driver to install the screws and the last screw snapped. I contacted their customer service at the email address in the instructions and they promptly sent a new screw pack via Amazon. After getting it mounted, I tested it out and it works fine. Rewind is smooth and so far no problems.

I bought the 65' hose unit. So far the hose and reel mechanism have been working great. Unfortunately the plastic housing has faded in the Florida sun. It has been roughly 8 months since installed. Hence the 3.5 stars. From day one, I have been applying every couple of months some Turtle Wax Ceramic spray coating to the plastic housing to help protect it from the elements, but nonetheless it has still faded pretty significantly. I can only imagine how much worse it would be had I not been applying some protection. Not sure how long it will last before the plastic housing becomes brittle and starts to crack. I know I'm able to remove it and store it while not in use but that's not ideal when we use this hose weekly to water the plants and washdown/flush our boat and jetski every week or so. It would be nice if they offered a cover we could purchase to help protect it from the elements. Other than that, the reel itself has been great and has had no issues reeling in the 65' of hose. As recommended, we always turn off the water and leave the spray nozzle open as the reel retracts, so that the water inside the hose can escape. If you don't, the reel may not retract the hose completely and you could risk breaking the unit due to the added weight of the water trapped inside the hose. I recommend this reel, just know that it will fade in a short time.

Installed this in the backyard mainly for watering the garden and doing a bit of cleanup here and there. The rewinding is smooth and no tangles or weird jerks. I like that it locks into place properly, so you don’t have extra hose lying around. The nozzle has multiple spray modes, which came in handy when I had to quickly rinse off the patio furniture after a windy day. Build feels strong, and the whole thing stays in place once mounted. Setup was simple too, which I always appreciate.
