Flat Hose Reel

Product Information

If you’re working with limited space, you might be wondering if there are more compact units available. The VonHaus Auto Rewind Wall-Mounted Hose Reel measures 41 x 40 x 20 cm which is significantly smaller than some other models.

DKN Leisure Supplies offers flat garden hoses as a suitable alternative. Flat garden hoses are designed to be lightweight and resistant to punctures and kinks. That means you don’t have to worry as much about getting holes in the hose or spending a lot of time untangling it. Instead, you can spend less than a minute straightening out the flat hose as you bring the head to the proper destination. Our Flat Drink Water Hose is one of the best available caravan / motorhome hoses in Australia. Complete with high-quality brass fittings, this high-pressure rated hose rolls flat on our Multi-Reel. The internal lining is taste free potable water PVC t hat complies with coveted AS 4020 standards. Our Lay Flat hoses have an abrasion resistant woven cover. Brass snap-on fittings ensure a perfect connection to your drinking water supply. With a diameter of 19 mm, your hose is powerful and boasts a pressure rating of 1400 kPa (over three times mains pressure). The end fittings are standard 12mm size and can be combined with other brands of snaps. Stored neatly on our Multi-Reel, they're a great, user-friendly choice. The reason you should get our Sullage HoseAutomatically reeling in 40 m of hose, and winding it on to the wall unit without tangling or kinking, this popular auto-reel saves time and effort. The result: a neatly stored hose in minutes. Of course, non-drip connectors are a must-have when it comes to garden hoses – keeping water bills down and generally making watering jobs easier. The Alfresia hose reel and hose have all brass fitting; on the spray gun, hose end and tap connector. These are robust and durable, much like the spray gun itself which is also made from metal. If you are looking for a high-quality hose reel to store and transport your hose (up to 200 feet), the Gorilla Aluminum Hose Reel is the perfect choice. After we tested 25 other reels of different shapes and styles, this product shines above the rest for its durability and design. Practicality: In terms of practicality, I looked out for reels that were resistant to kinks and those that had additional features that made them easier to use, such as auto-rewind technology. Models that were heavier – such as those above 15 kg – were rated lower in terms of initial practicality, as these were difficult to hold and assemble, so could pose difficulties to the average gardener immediately. We’ve covered the best expandable garden hoses extensively on DIY Garden, and there are some great options on the market. One of the main advantages of expandable hoses is that they can be longer than hoses in reels, whilst taking up less storage space.

This is one of the cheapest reels on the list, and as a result it may not be quite as smooth in operation as some of the more expensive models. However, arguably the generous length of hose makes for an acceptable compromise. The hose can sometimes require a bit of persuasion to unravel, and to avoid damaging the unit or surrounding objects the hose should be walked in carefully. Another thing to consider is the size of the reel unit itself. You should make sure you have enough wall space to mount the hose reel that you want to buy, as some of them are quite large. It’s worth noting that this is a large hose reel that does take up quite a bit of space – certainly something to bear in mind when considering if it’s the right product for your garden. The reel casing measures 27 x 66 x 55.5 cm, which is bigger than some other models. Naturally, unlike expandable hoses, a hose in a reel can naturally be left out for most of the year inside the casing.

As with most garden pots, this option isn't ideal to transport your hose or any other garden accessories. We found that lightweight hoses were the best choices for this pot, because you have to take the whole hose out and drag it around when in use—you don’t have the benefit of a reel to roll up the hose for you, but if you are looking for a hose pot, you can’t go wrong with this stylish choice. You should also look for a casing that is made from frost-resistant plastic to help protect the hose if it’s left outside during cold weather. Our Flat Out Drink Water Hose is a world-class potable portable hose. This taste-free, high pressure-rated hose with brass fittings, rolls flat on our Multi-Reel to save space. It takes a fraction of the time than conventional models take to use. It even self-drains! Designed originally for caravans and motorhomes, many of our customers utilise the Flat Out hoses in marine, equine and commercial settings. The reel has a reliable, and fairly powerful, winding mechanism, making it well suited to use in small spaces and on terraces; it cleanly stores the garden hose away in a neat casing that measures approximately 55 cm in diameter.

If so, we’re happy you found us. Flat Out is an Aussie family business (est. 2001) dedicated to manufacturing 'tangle prevention products' of the highest quality, designed to make life easier. In addition, the better quality the hose, the easier it will be to use and less likely to kink or fail to rewind. Superior garden hoses also come with better tap fittings meaning they are less likely to leak. Compact units, holding 15 m hoses, are available for small gardens . In medium gardens, a hose of 20 – 30 m should work well. Larger gardens will benefit from a 30 – 40 m hose . You can always attach an additional extension to the hose whilst working. A sense of freedom and independence, the morning sun rays falling through the skylight, birds singing and the beautiful blue sky reflecting in the smooth surface of the water. Sounds familiar? Everyone who is a fan of traveling with a camper or caravan knows this feeling. This is the journey where the history of Flat Out International begins. Beautiful views, evening bonfires, thousands of miles travelled, spontaneous stops wherever we dream, and starry skies - this is the beautiful side of traveling with a camper or caravan. The other side is meticulous preparation for the trip from the technical side, taking care of every detail so that the trip could be trouble-free and provide only positive experiences. One issue frustrated Peter and Lena on their journey - they couldn't find a way to store the water and sullage hoses so that they wouldn't get tangled, dirty and wouldn't take up a lot of space. After many conversations with fellow travellers, testing various products and solutions, Peter and Lanie designed and in 2001 launched their proprietary, innovative Flat Out reels and hoses system. After 20 years on the market…If the space where you choose to mount your reel is some way from the outdoor tap, you may need to acquire an extra ‘leader hose’ to connect the reel to the water supply. Also referred to as a ‘feeder hose’, sometimes you will have to create this yourself by cutting a piece of the hose pipe. It’s also a good budget option, possessing many of the same features as some of the best garden hose reels on this list, without the eyewatering price tag.
