    This hose box was very easy to put up on the wall. It was simply a matter of detaching the bracket and screwing that piece onto the wall and then simply fitting the hose box onto the bracket. In the winter, it would be very easy to take the hose box off the bracket and store it in the garage to keep the hose from freezing. The hose box looks heavier than it actually is.
    I love the way the hose retracts into the box. That is such a welcome relief from our old hose that had to be manually wound up.
    The build quality of this product is unquestionable. Highly recommended!

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersExcellent quality puts hozelock to shame. Everything is connected out of the box again unlike hozelock. Took less than 10 mins to attach to wall and I’m not great at DIY. The quality of connectors and the way the hose reels in and out is unlike anything hozelock do. Switch brand you won’t be disappointed. German quality!

    Heute kam die Box an. Verpackung war einwandfrei keine Beschdigungenan der Box. Die Montage war sehr einfach, hab aber lieber meine Dbel genommen weil ich da etwas eigen bin.
    Habe sie auch gleich mal getestet. 30 m Schlauch ausgezogen Garten gewssert und den Schlauch wieder eingerollt.
    Das ausziehen geht etwas schwer, genauso wie das aufrollen etwas langsam geht. Mir persnlich gefllt das da man so beim rausziehen und aufrollen den Schlauch leichter fhren kann. Die stopp Funktion ist klasse.
    Also bis jetzt bin ich voll und ganz zufrieden. Zu der Robustheit und Haltbarkeit kann ich noch nix sagen. Das kommt spter, nur soviel bei 5 Jahren Garantie wird die Qualitt und der Rest auch passen. Warten wir es ab. Erst mal in allem 5 Sterne.

    This is quite a large hose reel, which feels well-made and sturdy. The grey and white outer is quite neutral and understated in appearance. The hose reel doesn’t come with a mounting template, and the reel needs to be unscrewed from the mount before this can be attached to the wall. The supplied wall fixings are heavy duty — unsurprising considering the weight and size of the reel.

    This reel is well made and robust. Despite the absence of a template, wall mounting was fairly straightforward, and the hose has a decent length tap connector, although we haven’t used this so that it is directly connected to a tap, but rather so that another hose (connected to the tap) will reach round the side of the house and connect to this reel, giving us better coverage over quite a large garden. The hose itself feels strong and reliable. This style of reel hose is very easy to use, doesn’t tangle and retracts neatly onto the reel without the end disappearing.

    The real advantage this system offers over others lies in its promised frost protection technology. We have a smaller (15m) Gardena City compact hose reel, which we’ve had installed for coming up to three years now — it has done three winters outdoors — and has survived with the hose intact thanks to the effective frost protection function, so I’m satisfied that this 30m version can be safely left on the wall over Winter. Much more convenient than hoses which need to be drained and stored under cover to help prevent frost damage, particularly if under cover storage space is limited or unsuitable for the overwintering of largish garden items. Our older Gardena wall reel is a similar colour to this, and comparing the two now, the plastic on the older reel seems to have stayed looking pretty much the same rather than fading or going mottled in appearance.

    This is a very sturdy and robust hose. It was easy (for my son-in-law) to install close to our outside tap and it is now in daily use.

    The pipe stays round, does not ‘kink’ or ‘flatten’ and the pressure is constant – the spray action is ideal for our garden and, possibly best of all, a quick tug and it ‘puts itself away’ this is the best garden hose we have had at any time in the past forty years.

    Highly recommended.

    Amazing quality. I honestly didn’t expect the hose box to be so big as it’s only 25meters. The box is 17in x 25in x 10in so you need a space for it on the wall. Weight is 10kg. We have just placed a decking on our garden so where our old hose box was placed before is now our grill area and I thought I could still squeeze it in without a problem but it’s just too big. We had to place it farther cos eventhough it can swivel to the side it would hit the gutter pipe. So the size of this box should be considered before buying. Installation is straightforward with good and heavy duty fixings supplied. Once installed, the magic happens. This is really great and effortless to use. No more winding back the hose manually after use. It will automatically roll back if you tug it. The hose spray head is basic but good and can be easily replaced with your preferred one. Build and material is really good like any Gardena products. Just make sure you have a space for it.

    Wall hose box roll up to make life easier and gardening more enjoyable.
    First of all this hose is massive to my surprise .
    The box is really heavy ,so be careful when picking it up.
    The hose box came with full detailed instruction ,and if the book seems complicated, you can always check the installation video .
    As these is a heavy unit ,all installation must be done properly using the right required tools for a good result.
    The roll back system is such a relief!
    After the work has finished in the garden ,all you want is to speed up the process of putting everything back in place ,and a manual hose is definitely an extra hassle and time wasting.
    The automatic roll back system works well,once the job is done you just pull a bit the hose and release it and is all done.
    No more tingles and time waste for the next time.
    20 m of high quality hose ,which are kept untangled ,protected from rain and sun which means that it will last forever!
    The hose box keeps the hose on its place ,making the garden look nicely and tidy.
    Whichever use you decide for fhis hose ,either gardening ,patio cleaning or car washing,this hose box set worth its money and you won’t be disapointed !

    Money worth!

    I’ve been using this hose reel for some time now and it has been absolutely brilliant!

    It has been outside all the time, through hot summer, and it still looking good.

    The hose reel has been excellent.

    It has been used throughout this summer to clean the dog and the cars, and during the growing season for watering the garden.

    The pull out is easy and the return is gentle

    No leaks and it still retract with just as much pull as when it was first installed.

    So far I’m very impressed . Only downside is this whole unit is pretty heavy.

    Great very well engineered and made product.
    Comes with all you need and decent instructions on how to wall mount. Long solid hex bolt/screws and wall plug are supplied.
    It works great – pull to extract the hose then relax a little and it locks in place, another little pull and release and it retracts pretty rapidly.
    Good solid hoselock style fittings and the adjustable spray nozzle looks pretty good and works ok.
    My only real niggle is how big this is which made it difficult to find a location that wouldn’t cause us an issue but then for something that does this job its probably difficult to make it smaller and still solid

    I was kindly sent this product for free in exchange for an honest review.

    This hose looks great, it’s not too big so won’t take up too much space.

    It it easy to install and use.

    The hose has great options from high hose to a fine spray. So you can use it to waterpla the or pressure wash you patio.

    It has an Excellent mechanism which pulls your hose back into place once you’ve finished with it.

    It’s great ergonomically, it’s light and has a ball at the end of the hosefor you to grip onto easily.

    I would definitely recommend this hose to everyone who needs one.

    I was pleased to try this ‘Wall hose box RollUp M / L (white) 25 m’. I have a good hose but as I have mobility problems I am finding it increasingly hard to wind it onto the reel – this automatic winder should be a great boon.

    1. You get the assembled hose on its wall bracket, along with chunky screw/bolts, rawl plugs, three tap connectors and a traditional spray attachment.
    2. You have to undo one screw that holds the hose container onto the wall bracket. This will be really handy to remove it for winter storage – just leaving the bracket attached to the wall.
    3. Fitting the bracket to the wall was easy, after measuring, using a hammer drill to get through our stonework. My husband fitted it for me, without any trouble and he hates DIY.
    4. It has to be near to an outside tap and you need to drill into the brickwork and not into the mortar for a good hold. Mine feels extremely well held now. The unit will swing left to right against the wall and will easily face forward, what ever angle you want.
    4. Trying it out was a joy. You just pull and it comes out and locks when you stop, so you don’t need to be constantly ‘pulling’ while using it. To get it to go back you pull a little again and then just walk back with it – the hose cleverly goes back, running side to side in the casing to ‘stack’ it neatly. No knots or tangles here!
    5. The spray nozzle is effective and you can store it under the unit along with a space for another spray gun – they hang easily
    6. This 25metre hose reaches to the bottom of our garden or around the house into the front garden, with more left over on the reel. It was a joy to just walk back from the front garden with it rather then my old hose needing two people – one to wind the hose onto the reel and one to prevent tangles and guide it back.
    7. I am in love with this hose and the quality is fantastic in my opinion.
    8. It is a lot to pay for a hose but worth every penny for the quality, convenience and functionality.

    This Gardena Hose Reel and 30 meter hose is simply fantastic
    At first Glance it looks expensive for what it is but I think there is a Valid reason in this Case
    ok so The Build quality right out of the Box is Good it is EU made so to be honest even the Plastics feel a better quality and durable its very Heavy and you may need a Hand when installing this as it can be tricky drilling and setting it level on your own
    It comes with 3 wall plugs and 3 Bolts that will need a ratchet or spanner to tighten up properly 6 to 8 mil i think
    after setting it up which took around a hour i was right away impressed with the hose rail it can feel a little stiff to unroll at first but after one or two uses that should ease up there is grease on bits of the hose as i unrolled it but thats nothing to worry about it is lubricating fluid from the factory and will do its job as you use it it will distribute itself if there is too much for any reason it s fine to wipe off and its normal nothing to worry about
    there is a rubber ball that acts as a stopper when fully contracted
    The hose is 30 meters and feels good quality and flexible so easily laps around my house even out my gate i could clean my car at the top of the street
    its great to put the hose away and easy all you need to do is give it a little tug like a seatbelt but in reverse as a seat belt locks with a jolt this contracts instead as it contract back it feeds itself perfectly you will see the rail slide left and right to even out the roll as it coils back up NO MORE TANGLED Hoses YES
    i Have a tangled hose at least once a week plus my dog likes to pee near it which then needs disinfectant and swilling before use all those issues gone now
    The hose also comes with a adjustable nozel that locks onto your hose at the rear of the box there is a second hose this is the piece that goes to your wall tap or hose extension
    the nozel can be adjusted to spray a wide angle light spray or turned to Jet which is reasonably powerful its good enough to clean the yard etc but obviously not as good as a pressure washer
    I had issues with a rotten wall at the back so the first attempt at fitting failed and i moved the box onto A lancashire stone wall where its solid so luckily i have a long enough hose to couple it still but you may need to plan your location as once fitted its kind of perminant so near your wall tap or create an extension
    There is UV protection on the plastic but i guess only time will tell with that one its design is good because it swings so can be swung around when needed there are also some small release screws on the back of the hinges so it can be removed and stored in winter etc or for security if your going on holiday
    over all i was very impressed with this and it makes everything 10 times easier in the garden for me i have to wash the Yard daily and car weekly using a 4 year old hose with a modern trigger
    I did notice the cheaper un branded trigger and hose connections i have all fit but there was slight leakage but when using GARDENA provided nozel or More suited ones there were no leaks
    I think this is expensive but in its defence iv never seen anything like it that is so well built and functional
    its been a pleasure to use i imagine it would be great for large flower beds lawns and large yards Very impressive in my opinio

    Heavy Duty Water proof Uv protection 30 meter Hose with Locking system and impressive rolling Rail

    Opening the shipping carton, you will find that this comes fully assembled and ready to go. The hose is already in the cassette and the cassette is already connected to the wall bracket. In theory it would be possible to use the hose right away without mounting it to a wall, it even comes with a small foot on the bottom of the cassette which stops it falling over when placed on the floor. However, in practice you would need someone to hold the cassette still on the ground as you pull the hose out as this takes significant effort. Despite the presence of the foot, this is really only designed to be used when attached to a wall.

    Make sure you read the instructions provided, as it isn’t obvious the wall bracket can be removed from the hose cassette. You need to separate the two before fitting, unless you want to make mounting it to a wall very difficult for yourself.

    The hose cassette with hose inside weighs approx. 12Kg. Three 6cm long coach screws are provided, along with raw plugs and washers. There are no extra fixing holes available, so you will need to make sure these 3 fixing points are very secure when you fit it. Be aware that you will need to provide your own spanner or 10mm hex socket to be able to tighten these coach screws.

    If you are wondering about the ‘(white)’ part of the product description as the cassette is obviously black. The ‘white’ refers to a plastic circle which is present on each side of the cassette. It appears removable, so it may be possible to swap it out for other colours. In terms of accessories, you get an adjustable hosepipe spray nozzle and 3 different adaptors for connecting the cassette input hose to a threaded tap spout (1″, 3/4″ and 1/2″ – aka 33, 26 and 20mm).

    The hose cassette, when fitted to a wall and at 90 degrees to the wall, stands approx. 72cm proud of the wall (65 for the cassette and an additional 17 for the hose end which cant fully be pushed back inside the cassette). When swivelled to be horizontal with the wall it stands just 26cm proud. Unless you have masses of space, you may want to fit the wall bracket in a position which caters for the cassette being folded flat against the wall when not in use.

    Additionally, in terms of where to mount the cassette you may need to consider the length of the water input hose (1.4m) and place the cassette within that distance of your outside tap, unless you use further extensions.

    The provided hose is the Gardena Classic 13mm aka 1/2″ hose. This has a 22bar burst pressure and is UV resistant. Gardena also make three higher quality hoses which are available with more expensive cassette kits. Their top of the range hose goes up to 35 bar, though if you aren’t using high-end pressure washers the basic hose should be fine. Just be aware that despite its quite high price, this is actually the budget end of the Gardena range.

    You may have already spotted in the product description; this comes with what Gardena call ‘RollControl technology’; as you retract the hose after use a mechanism moves back and forth and distributes the hose evenly across the roller inside the cassette to keep it tidy. At the moment this seems to work OK, but I wonder about its long-term functionality. You may need to lubricate this periodically after you have had it a while.

    As other reviews have mentioned, it does take quite a lot of force to pull the hose out of the cassette, but the trade-off for this is that it has plenty of power to pull it back in again once you are done. Emptying the hose of as much water as you can before retracting helps with this. The only issue I had was that occasionally I would tug ‘incorrectly’ to pull out a bit more hose and trigger the rewind when I didn’t want it. It is probably something that won’t occur once you get used to how much you want to pull out each time you use it.

    My belief is that at least some of the negative reviews about it arriving in a scratched used condition are because of the rather sparse packing material. When I opened my shipping carton, I was shocked at how little support such a large and heavy item had. Inevitably these are going to get thrown around inside their boxes and no surprises really that some arrive with scratches or even broken parts.

    You are paying extra for the Gardena name. This does mean you likely get some extra quality in return, but at this price you may want to consider stepping up a little more and getting one of their kits with the slightly more robust hoses.

    Expensive, but good quality

    Opening the shipping carton, you will find that this comes fully assembled and ready to go. The hose is already in the cassette and the cassette is already connected to the wall bracket. In theory it would be possible to use the hose right away without mounting it to a wall, it even comes with a small foot on the bottom of the cassette which stops it falling over when placed on the floor. However, in practice you would need someone to hold the cassette still on the ground as you pull the hose out as this takes significant effort. Despite the presence of the foot, this is really only designed to be used when attached to a wall.

    Make sure you read the instructions provided, as it isn’t obvious the wall bracket can be removed from the hose cassette. You need to separate the two before fitting, unless you want to make mounting it to a wall very difficult for yourself.

    The hose cassette with hose inside weighs approx. 12Kg. Three 6cm long coach screws are provided, along with raw plugs and washers. There are no extra fixing holes available, so you will need to make sure these 3 fixing points are very secure when you fit it. Be aware that you will need to provide your own spanner or 10mm hex socket to be able to tighten these coach screws.

    If you are wondering about the ‘(white)’ part of the product description as the cassette is obviously black. The ‘white’ refers to a plastic circle which is present on each side of the cassette. It appears removable, so it may be possible to swap it out for other colours. In terms of accessories, you get an adjustable hosepipe spray nozzle and 3 different adaptors for connecting the cassette input hose to a threaded tap spout (1″, 3/4″ and 1/2″ – aka 33, 26 and 20mm).

    The hose cassette, when fitted to a wall and at 90 degrees to the wall, stands approx. 72cm proud of the wall (65 for the cassette and an additional 17 for the hose end which cant fully be pushed back inside the cassette). When swivelled to be horizontal with the wall it stands just 26cm proud. Unless you have masses of space, you may want to fit the wall bracket in a position which caters for the cassette being folded flat against the wall when not in use.

    Additionally, in terms of where to mount the cassette you may need to consider the length of the water input hose (1.4m) and place the cassette within that distance of your outside tap, unless you use further extensions.

    The provided hose is the Gardena Classic 13mm aka 1/2″ hose. This has a 22bar burst pressure and is UV resistant. Gardena also make three higher quality hoses which are available with more expensive cassette kits. Their top of the range hose goes up to 35 bar, though if you aren’t using high-end pressure washers the basic hose should be fine. Just be aware that despite its quite high price, this is actually the budget end of the Gardena range.

    This is a very good quality hose and box and is by some margin the best quality example of this that I have used, and you would of course expect that given the purchase price being the best part of 100 for a 20m hose. Sometimes it really does pay to get the best hose system you can afford, as in my experience cheaper hoses don’t last and you end up buying again.

    What makes this hose so exceptional is not only the quality of the hose and fittings, but the smooth operation of the box and the simplicity of rolling it in and out. No more hoses left snaking across the garden for me, as it’s simple and easy to use and put away with this system. Because of that functionality it also means that you’ll get far less wear and tear on the hose which increases longevity.

    The features, such as roll control and short stop technology makes using this hose system a pleasure, and the 180 degree swivel on the wall holder is helpful for directing the hose at different parts of the garden easily. It’s easy to fit with even limited DIY knowledge and all the fittings are provided. So I’m very happy with this and have no hesitation in recommending.

    Much larger and heavier than anticipated but not a biggie as it’s great. Set up and ready to go in a jiffy courtesy of my old man!

    I’ve just moved to a new house and I finally have an outside tap which is why I was excited to after I ordered this.

    I hadn’t realised there was a tap in the garden and was thinking how I would get it to work for me if I mounted it in the garden near the kitchen door then figure out how to attach the hose to my kitchen tap . Well I don’t need to do that or worry about that anymore.

    Anyway back to the hose. It’s absolutely perfect for me. It’s long enough to water all my plants as well as it being great that the hose is housed neatly away once I’ve finished with it.

    It comes in 3 different lengths 15,20 & 25m respectively and can swivel making it very easy to use in different directions. My garden is small so I don’t need to worry about the swivel but it will be useful for large gardens.
    So should be long enough for average size gardens if not there is a connector that can be purchased separately if the hose is not long enough. So If I need to use it out front I can

    Great piece of equipment Who knew I’d get so excited about a hose.

    I would recommend.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersWhere to start with this rollup hose, well I’ll start by saying it’s one of the best products I’ve received!

    When it first arrived the box was huge. I was slightly apprehensive that I’d received a hose they would ordinarily fit on a fire engine. It was heavy too but once opened it seemed to be of a more normal size.

    You get the bolts needed in the box, rings and plugs. You get three different width screw adapters for your outside tap. An adjustable hose head (you turn for your desired pressure and flow rate) and you have the hose and housing unit too.

    I have changed the hose head over to my own gun as I like more control but I’m keeping the original one as it’s pretty decent for swilling and filling my hottub. Just clips in when needing to change this over.

    You’re going to need a pozy screw driver, 8mm drill bit (obviously a drill) and spanner/wrench. I prefer to use a wrench with bolt heads as it’s less time consuming when fixing and easier when you’re on the final tightening, nothing worse than scratching up knuckles either. If I remember correctly I used a 12mm head for the bolts when fixing.

    You’ll find the release screw for the pivot neck just below the lower connection. Undo this and the wall brace will come apart. Align where you want it, mark with a sharpy and drill the holes.

    It was so easy to fit. It took me literally ten mins on my own. Once the brace is on the wall just sit the hose housing back and rescrew the locking screw back. Just reverse what you did prior.

    Now I found the plastic adapter for my outside tape wasn’t the best quality. I attached a brass two-way splitter as I like to be able to use my watering can and fill buckets. The 3/4 one with it needed tightening as there was dripping and the grip spanner I used really dug into it. Could imagine that failing within no time.
    For the price of this I would have expected brass fitments but you can buy them easily enough so it’s no biggy.

    The hose inside the housing is the solid reinforced plastic types. Not the expansion ones you see that claim to stretch to five times their length. Absolutely fantastic as it’s 30m worth of hose and allows high-pressure, as well as being able to use with my Kartcher K7.

    It allows me to get to the front of my home with several meters still rolled up! Honestly I’m over the moon with this as I’ve managed to clean the car without needing to ask neighbours to move their cars.

    It’s simple to use and just take your time to get used to it. I hadn’t used one before, you just gently pull the hose and it will unravel, once you stop it will lock at that length. To release, stand next to the housing and gently pull away – then allow it to pull back – and it will automatically roll back into it.

    The pivot hinge allows you to stand either side of the garden and pull it towards that area and swings with ease to the direction you’re stood at. There’s a ball shaped plug that prevents it from pulling the hose back into the housing once you reach the end.
    You can swing it to sit flat against the wall so it’s out of the way when not in use.

    The pressure was higher than my old hose, I don’t know how it does this as my old hose was on a plastic ring frame but the weight would always press down, so I would have to completely unravel. Not with this, it was high and consistent throughout. I didn’t get my usually drops up and down either.

    The instructions state that this can indeed be left out during winter. Just empty it fully before leaving it and you’ll have no issues. I noticed others suggesting that you had to bring it in. This isn’t the case.

    Love it! Been after one of these for years!

    When this got delivered I was suprised the package was massive so expect a large heavy delivery there is alot of weight to this hose.
    This was alot easier to set up than expected it takes 3 large screws/bolts to mount it to the wall screws and rawl plugs provided
    Fix to a wall not a fence I don’t think a fence would take the weight in the long term.

    You will need a 8mm masonry drill bit to do the holes for the wall itnonly took about 10/15 mins to fix this all up.
    The bracket comes off the hose box to fix it to the wall then you just slot the hose box back on once it’s fitted and one small screw to keep it secured on.
    Once all set up there is an ease of moment the hone box swivels on the bracket well but secure.
    The hose has all connectors to attach to tap and few spares.
    It has a standard basic flow spray nozzel on it when it arrives but personally I prefer a trigger gun and the one I had just clipped in place like with any other hose.
    The hose is really long covers my whole garden which is about 17meters long with plenty spare.
    Hose pulls out easily on a self recoil.
    When you want to put it away just pull it a little and it will start to roll itself back in at a decent speed its not slow. No need to mess about self windinding by hand and the best part about the hose box self recoil is itnwont knot up inside either as you can see from he video attached the mechanism moves side to side as it rolls up to give it a even roll.and won’t get all knotted inside.

    At first when I looked at the price I thort it was expensive but the quality and ease of use of this hose it is worth every penny

    Amazing hose

    TOOLS THAT YOU ARE GOING TO NEED IF YOU DECIDE TO PURCHASE, INCLUDE A) A PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER ( sometimes called a posy drive ) B) A 10mm ( 0.39 of an inch ) SPANNER OR SOCKET. C) A CORDED/CORDLESS DRILL CAPABLE OF HAMMER DRILL FUNCTION (if you intend mounting your Gardena wall hose box to a wall ). D) AN 8mm MASONRY DRILL BIT. E) A SPIRIT LEVEL & LASTLY A HAMMER. THE SCREWS AND RAWLPLUGS SUPPLIED ARE PERFECTLY ADEQUATE FOR THE TASK IN HAND.. SIMPLY MARK UP THROUGH THE THREE HOLES OF THE BACKING, USING YOUR SPIRIT LEVEL TO KEEP THE BACKING LEVEL. REMOVE THE BACKING & DRILL YOUR 3 MARKINGS USING A HAMMER DRILL WITH AN 8mm MASONRY DRILL PIECE FITTED. GET AS MUCH OF THE DUST OUT OF THE HOLES AS THIS MAY SHORTEN THE AVAILABLE SPACE FOR THE RAWLPLUGS. INSERT THE RAWLPLUGS INTO THE HOLES. MOST RAWLPLUGS WILL PUSH IN, VERY NEARLY ALL THE WAY, REQUIRING JUST A SMALL TAP WITH YOUR HAMMER TO DRIVE THEM HOME. OFFER UP YOUR BACKING AND PASS THE SCREW/BOLTS THROUGH THE BACKING AND INTO YOUR DRILLED HOLES. HAND TIGHTEN THE BOLT HEADED SCREWS. THEN USING YOUR 10mm SPANNER OR SOCKET ( a lot easier ) FIX THE BACKING TO THE WALL. THEN PLACE THE HOSE BOX ONTO THE BACKING OVER THE 2 FITTINGS. LASTLY TIGHTEN THE SCREW UNDERNEATH USING YOUR PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER. JOB DONE. NOW THAT YOUR BOX IS IN PLACE JUST CONNECT IT TO YOUR STANDPIPE. THAT’S IT. THE HOSE PIPE WHEN PULLED OUT CLICKS EVERY SO OFTEN. IT WILL THEN STAY AT THAT LENGTH. WHEN YOU WANT TO REWIND THE HOSE WHICH IS 25M ( 82 feet ) IN LENGTH, PULL IT OUT FURTHER AND THE HOSE WILL AUTOMATICALLY REWIND. THIS IS A GREAT FEATURE AS IT AVOIDS TANGLES. THE CONNECTORS FITTED TO MY EXISTING QUADRUPLE STAND PIPE ATTACHMENT WITH NO LEAKS WHATSOEVER. ALL CONNECTIONS AND ACTIONS ARE VERY SMOOTH INDEED. I HAPPEN TO FIND IT ALSO LOOKS VERY STYLISH WITH THE HOSEPIPE OUT OF SIGHT. WOULD I RECOMMEND THIS HOSE BOX ? MOST DEFINITELY

    DIRECTIONAL HOSE !!!!

    I did not know Gardena invented the quick click hoselock mechanism I always thought it was Hoselock that came up with it first. Anyway this is brilliant quality from Gardena German made product. I am getting to love there garden products and I have a few now the quality of this one is 100 times better than Hoselock that I use to buy and I mean everything Hoselock for watering things I’ve had. Easy to bolt to the wall and you get all the bolts and plugs you need. Then this just slides on and you get a locking pin so someone cannot just lift it off and away with it. It pulls out easy all the way and it retracts very easy too moving right to left on it’s own with the mechanism inside it’s brilliant we love it.

    This is a heavy unit (15kg dry) but most of that is the reel itself. The bracket is quite light and easy to install though.

    You get the bracket, fixings, hose reel, spray head and connector lead from the reel to your tap. Everything you need. Once installed you slip the reel in and tighten up a couple of screws and it’s ready.

    The reel runs smoothly and retracts easily. It’s really does just what you need and the only negatives are the price (which is really quite steep) and the large ‘bird nest’ sized hole. I’ve had Robbins looking in there a few hours after installing it. I used a short length of gutter brush to seal it off, and also provide a way of cleaning the hose when it’s retracted.

    I have often found that adverts for such things as garden items or general tools are shown much bigger than they actually are: not so this hose box set. It is heavy and very big. When the courier delivered it I noticed that in contrast to what is usual he put the box containing the hose box on a trolley. I thought oh my this is going to be ‘really’ heavy. No, its heavy, but being in its own manufacturers box inside Amazon’s box made holding it a bit out of balance -hence the trolley, I think.

    So, to sum up it is large, relatively heavy and therefore needs a good solid wall to install it on. The overall build quality is very high; I can see why they guarantee this for such a length of time.

    Golden Review Award: 10 From Our UsersIn recent years I’ve been using the hoses that extend when the tap is turned on. They’re OK, but need a fair amount of water pressure before they extend and this is sometimes more pressure than you want/need. Plus you have to be careful not to leave the tap on when the water’s shut off at the other end of the hose, otherwise they can balloon and split. They also look untidy when not in use.
    This hose from Gardena looked like a great alternative.

    The unit comes with the mounting bracket, screws/washers, raw plugs, a short length of hose (about 1.5 metres long) to connect the unit to your tap, various attachments that will screw on to your outdoor tap in different sizes, a spray head and a manual. Initially I had leaks below the tap, but when I replaced my original plastic tap connector, with the equivalent supplied in the box, the leaks stopped completely! The Gardena part was better than my original, which may have perished a bit at the seals.

    I have the 20m hose, I believe the mounting bracket is different for longer versions. Installation took me about half an hour, but most of that was spent locating the right tools, it could probably be done in about 10 minutes. I placed the mounting bracket in the place that I wanted the hose to be, and aligned the 3 holes in the bracket with mortar rather than brick faces (less cosmetic damage involved and easier to drill) and marked where the holes in the bracket were with a pencil. I then used an 8mm masonry drill bit to drill to a depth equal to the length of the raw plugs. I ended up just drilling the top 2 holes, as the screws and raw plugs are quite hefty and most of the stress will be on these 2 screws. I tapped in the raw plugs with a hammer. You need the correct sized spanner (or an adjustable one) to then get the screws tightened up. I’d recommend using all 3 screws, but I wanted to drill as few holes as possible and I’m pretty confident about the top 2 holding.

    Once the bracket is mounted, it’s just a case of removing the front section, sliding the main unit in, replacing the front section, inserting/tightening 2 screws and connecting the short length of hose. Job done!

    To use, grab the end of the hose, give it a good pull until it’s at the length that you want and let the hose wind back a little. It then locks at that length. You do need to give it a reasonably good tug, but this is generating the energy for winding the hose back in. When you’re finished, give the hose a tug and release and it will wind all the way back into the housing automatically. Excellent! No issues with the hose sitting unevenly in its housing or getting jammed — it just works.

    The unit seems sturdy, and looks nice/tidy. It can swivel 180 degrees which is useful. The ‘rewind’ mechanism seems strong and has no issues winding back the full 20m length even when it is dragging along the ground and full of water.

    This hose system is ideal if you have to water plants daily but don’t want a long hose lying around making your garden look untidy. I’ve used manual systems that involve cranking a handle, but the hose always seems to coil up unevenly causing issues. This has a mechanism to ensure that this never happens — see my video. The hose is fed steadily from right to left and back as it retracts.

    I can’t fault the quality or ease of use.

    If I’m being really picky, the price seems a little bit high (I’m no expert in top-of-the-line hose prices though), but otherwise, this is a great bit of kit — highly recommended.

    Gardena don’t make inferior products, at least, I’ve not come across any. This retractable hose is no exception. We have a manual, cheaper wind up hose in the garage, but this is on a different level. The quality of the materials and the build is obvious, and the ease of installation is a credit to its designers, although the ‘anti-theft’ device is a cross headed screw, not exactly foolproof! Using the wall bracket as a template makes for easy positioning, but remember there is a swing of 180 degrees which takes up 500mm either side of the center wall bracket, so position needs thinking about. Connections are just a matter of pushing the intake hose onto a convenient tap, if it’s not close enough, then to add a suitable length of hose with a joiner seems to be the simplest solution. In use, it’s simple to walk away from the cassette taking the hose, not a great deal of effort is required, but it does need some, there are stops that prevent it recoiling , the reassurance of a loud click is an indication that a stop has been reached. A short pull will allow it to retract. Though don’t expect it to retract from a full extent of the 30 meters with hose full of water without some help. I have found it easier to empty the hose and retract it whilst standing close to the wall unit. The rewind gear will travel from side to side automatically, so the quality 1/2″ hose never winds up unevenly, which would probably cause a jam in the housing.
    This is a quality product and quality has its price. Five stars is appropriate.

    Hose winding in one spot and falling off the reel
    Getting wet and dirty from handling the hose that’s been dragging along the ground.

    This expertly deals with those issues.

    It arrived in a pretty heavy box (15kg) but is well packaged and the internal box was in perfect condition.

    It’s in two main parts: The hose/reel and the wall bracket.
    Also supplied is a fixing kit, supply hose connector, hose nozzle and three adaptors for attaching to a standard threaded tap of varying diameter.
    The fixing kit is sturdy enough for the job. The bolts supplied being long enough and of a size that will definitley support the device, tightening up with a spanner, not a screwdriver. (not supplied)

    Attaching the wall bracket was pretty straight forward. Three holes drilled out with an 8mm bit and then screwed in place.
    The hose reel is clamped in place with another bracket that allows the unit to rotate 180 degrees – which it does with ease.
    I had mine installed in less than 5 minutes (once I found all my tools…)

    It uses the standard Hose-lok system and is compatible with my old hose-lok fittings, including my old multi-function nozzle. This was fortunate because this system is only supplied with a basic nozzle that operates from a wide spray which tightens up to a quite powerful hose as you twist the end the of the nozzle.
    For the money I would have liked to see a multi-function nozzle included.

    The hose pulls out easily and locks when you stop pulling. A small tug on the hose and release and it begins a steady (but not slow) even coiling up process.
    The mechanism can be seen to be traversing back and forth across the drum so winding the hose up evenly.
    The speed remained constant throughout the full 20m length and didn’t slow down for the last few meters.
    A very impressive re-winding mechanism.

    The supply hose for connecting to your tap is 1500mm long, ample for positioning your reel at a decent height.

    All in all a very well made, tough and functional hose reel that I am very glad to have replaced my old hose with.
    Price wise it’s at the top end of the market. Most others have a multi-function nozzle supplied. But they just don’t look as nice as this one on the wall.

    Brilliant!

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersIch hatte schon lange vor diese Schlauchbox zu kaufen. Mir war sie einfach immer zu teuer gewesen. Doch nun habe ich mich durchgerungen und habe das Geld investiert. Ich habe nun die Schlauchbox seid ca. 3 Wochen im Einsatz. Bis jetzt kann ich keinen negativen Punkt finden. Ich habe mich fr die grte Box mit 35 m Schlauch entschieden. Weil unser Garten so lang gezogenen ist Brauch man die Lnge auch. Ich habe die Schlauchbox in einer Ecke vom Garten mit Holzpfosten in den Boden einbetoniert. Die Schlauchbox funktioniert tadellos. Und sie ist ein Segen. Vorher habe ich immer den Schlauch auf einen Schlauchwagen aufgewickelt das war immer aufwendig und nervig. Nun geht es ganz einfach von der Hand. Der Schlauch wird schn gleichmig eingezogen und ordentlich aufgewickelt. Preis knnte etwas niedriger sein aber sonst habe ich nichts zu meckern.

    Sehr einfache Montage, alles notwendige Zubehr dabei. Einmal kurz ziehen und der Schlauch wickelt sich perfekt auf. Endlich keine “Aufrollorgien” mit niemals richtig funktionierenden Schlauchwagen mehr….
    Lediglich fr das ausziehen des Schlauches ist (bei 35m) etwas Kraftanstrengung ntig. Einziger Verbesserungsvorschlag: Eine Brste o.. an der ffnung um den doch immer anfallenden groben Dreck abzustreifen, dieser sammelt sich ansonsten im inneren der Box….

    Von der Trommel bin ich begeistert.
    Aufrollen klappt wenn es nicht ber 2 Ecken oder nassen rasen geht.
    Gehuse knnte 1cm grer dann wrde ,wenn er mal nicht ganz korrekt wickelt am Ende nichts schleifen….kommt aber selten vor.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersDie Halterung lie sich leicht montieren. Bei 30 m Schlauch ist die Schlauchbox nicht gerade klein, aber nicht so gro wie sie auf Bildern wirkt. Die letzten 5 Meter lassen sich schon etwas schwerer ausziehen. Wenn man die Box den Schlauch vllig selbststndig einziehen lsst, gibt es meinst keine Probleme. Manchmal zieht sie die letzten Meter nicht mehr ein. Dann muss man nochmal einige Meter wider abrollen. ber’s Eck aufrollen geht nicht. Da wird der Schlauch nicht sauber aufgerollt und die letzten Meter gehen dann nicht rein.

    Golden Review Award: 21 From Our UsersProduit conforme la description.
    Par contre, GARDENA protge peu le dvidoir : Carton en mauvais tat et dscotch en partie ce qui inquite pour la suite. Une fois ouvert, le dvidoir est juste pos dans ce grand carton l’effigie de la marque et non cal. On dirait qu’il a t dball puis remball.
    Une fois sorti, je constate quelques micro rayures sur le dessus et le flanc mais rien de rdhibitoire.
    Je l’ai install sur un mur extrieur en parpaing creux l’aide des chevilles et visses fournies et a tient parfaitement.

    CONSEIL : Attention, c’est un point d’eau donc pas moins de 60 cm d’une prise ou d’un interrupteur. Ce n’est pas une norme, c’est du bon sens.
    ——–
    Une petite vis sur le support permet de dsolidariser le dvidoir pour le mettre l’abris l’hiver. On aurait peut-tre aim un systme plus scuris histoire de limiter voire d’viter un vol.
    La rotation se fait 180 degrs, le tuyaux de 35m sort trs simplement en tirant.
    Pour l’enrouler, c’est trs simple, il suffit de tirer lgrement dessus, relcher tranquillement puis accompagner le tuyau lors de sa course d’enroulage.
    Pour les finition et la qualit, c’est du GARDENA, donc pas de surprise.

    DANS LE CARTON :
    *Support mural + visserie
    *Dvidoir et tuyau 35m assembls + 1,50 m de tuyaux de raccordement

    Das gieen wird fast zum Vergngen. Keine herumliegenden Schluche mehr, denn das Aufrollen des Schlauches wird zum Kinderspiel. Ein kurzer Ruck und der Schlauch rollt sich schnell und selbstndig wieder auf.
    Die Montage war ganz schnell und einfach. Auch der Wasserdruck bleibt aufrecht. Ich habe keinen Druckverlust wahrgenommen.
    Das Gehuse und der Schlauch sind optisch gesehen von gediegener Qualitt. ber die Haltbarkeit kann ich keine Angabe machen, da ich erst seit kurzem Besitzer dieser Box bin.
    Anmerkung:
    Toppen knnte es nur mehr eine Auffbewahrungsbox, welche auf Knopfdruck den Schlauch nicht nur einrollt, sonder auch auf die bentigte Lnge beim ausrollen untersttzt. Die gibt es aber meines Wissens nach (noch) nicht, wre aber meiner Meinung nach wnschenswert.

    Das Teil ist zwar relativ gro, aber es muss ja der Schlauch darin Platz haben… es funktioniert einwandfrei: der Rckstopp arretiert den Schlauch ohne oft daran ziehen zu mssen und er wickelt sich wieder geordnet auf. – ich hoffe, das bleibt so. Wrde ich sofort wieder kaufen.

Wir hatten vorher 30 Meter Schlauch und es war einfach nur nervig diesen nach Gebrauch ordentlich zu verstauen. Mit diesem gardena Hilfsmittel rollt sich der Schlauch alleine auf und ist zugleich ordentlich in der Garage verstaut.

Der Einzug krftig. Die Befestigung der Halteplatte und die der Trommel an der Halteplatte ist sehr hochwertig und simpel. Der Schlauch behlt immer seine Form und verdreht sich nicht beim Einzug (Das kenne ich auch anders.. ). Einziges eventuelles K.O. Kriterium ist der hohe Preis….(Ach ja, ich schreibe nicht oft Bewertungen, aber wenn dann ehrlich!…..)
