All About Hose Reels 

For a long-lasting and better-performing hose, you need a good hose reel to protect it. Hose reels also help you carry and store your hoses effectively. To make the right choice of a hose reel, there are many factors to consider. And because there are many brands out there, we have prepared this guide to help you choose the best hose reels most suitable for your gardening, irrigation, or landscape maintenance job.

Types and Characteristics of Hose Reels

To help you make the right choice of hose reels, let's outline the types and characteristics of hose reels. Hose Reels can be classified according to their retraction mechanism, their use, and mobility.

Hose Reels According to Retraction Mechanism

Retractable hose reels can be classified into three: 

• Spring Driven: These types of hose reels utilize a spring mechanism to automatically retract the hose back into the reel. These types of hose reels are pretty convenient and easy to use, however more expensive than the traditional hand crank types.

• Hand Crank: Hand Crank Hose Reels come with a manual rewind. You have  to turn the crank handle to retract the hose into the reel. These reels are more affordable, durable, and easy to maintain.

• Motor Driven: These are automatic hose reels. They use an electric motor to retract the hose automatically. With just a push of the button, the motor drives the reel to wind the hose back in. This type is the most expensive but easiest to use. They are best used in industries for handling heavy-duty hoses.

Hose Reels According to Use

1. Garden Hose Reels: Garden Hose Reels are designed for your everyday garden use. Best used in gardens, lawns, and other small landscapes around the house. They could be portable or wall-mounted.

• Water Hose Reels: for spraying water in gardens and for other irrigation purposes. Water hose reels are usually portable and can be carried around the house with water hose reels carts.

• Air Hose Reels: store your air hose, preventing hoses from lying around the workplace. Very compact and mostly retractable like the VEVOR retractable air hose reels.

•  Fuel Hose Reels: for carrying and storing your fuel hoses. 

There are also Portable and wall-mounted hose reels. Wall-mounted hose reels are space-saving while the portable ones are easy to carry around.
