What Is a Hose Reel?
A hose reel is a gardening accessory which holds a coiled hose and pays out lengths of hose as needed for watering. When watering is finished, the hose can be wound back up onto the reel for tidy storage. Many nurseries and home supply stores stock hose reels, and if customers cannot find what they are looking for, they can also check Internet sites which sell garden supplies. There are a number of styles of hose reel available. Some are designed to attach to a wall or to sit on a stand over a spigot, while others are set up as rolling carts which can be pulled around the garden. A hose reel can also lie or sit on the ground. In all cases, the reel is designed so that a hose can be coiled around a hollow core.
