high hose reel
« on: December 29, 2013, 12:45:39 pm »
happy xmas everyone .....im killing myself bending down to reel my hose in so im after a reel that about waist high , looked at gardners brodex and all the other supliers , there are some that are off the floor but still not high enough to save my back ... sometimes I put hose back on van to reel it in and it is so much easier so imagine just standing behind a reel and reeling it in    any sensible ideas please
the more flyers i post , the luckier i seem to get ...

Got a dodgy back meself. Mine is at shoulder height. Makes a world of difference.

I don't think you will find a reel the height you want, one of the reasons for this is the weight - you'd never lift it

Fix inside your van



Best option by far

Just below shoulder height is where you want it.
