My Narrowboat Flat Hose Reel Review 

1salahudin Thanks for the feedback.

Your welcome, I suppose your next question will be how big a water tank, then whether to have stainless steel, plastic or steel welded into hull.

Your welcome, the point to this video was to show that just because it’s cheap doesn’t necessarily mean it rubbish

Your welcome ! 🤔😉

Just need to align the slot in side of wheel with slot in main body and move the release clip on body then slide hose out flat through hose reel

Thanks for the feedback

£9.99 on eBay today I just ordered one

Sorry for delay in response, was unable to find supplier able to ship to US until now amzn.to/3xMOpvZ

@@endeavour2968can you still use the hose as you normally would if you don’t take the whole length of hose out of the reel?

@@christianbonfiglio5544 unfortunately no, it’s rolled up tight so you need to fully unwind the hose to use it, However it’s so much easier than a big hose reel, I now have 3 of them that I can connect together giving me 150ft, which haven’t given me any issues in 4.5 years use

For the past 2.5 years of owning them, as I have two to reach water points from my boat and using weekly, I can say not one leak (touch wood), had to tighten one reel with a Phillips screw driver as bolt came loose, but that is the extent of faults, I keep hoses on reels still. Only negative I’d guess is if you wind two fast, as the real is pushing water out you might find hose jump off reel, However I have personally never had this happen, would I buy again, the answer is yes, nearly bought a third, but found another 50 ft hose in a locker.

This is a link to the one I bought amzn.to/3EkWr0i

Just a standard garden tap but comes with two different size tap thread adapters in the box

Why junk?, I’ve been using these two hoses for the past 2 years and they are still as good as the day I bought them
