7 poles too?

How do you find the hozelok reels for work?  I've got one on the wall at home for the garden hose and it always feels like it just about to break - too much flex in the plastic

How's the pressure washing going in your area?

I like the door mounted reels - smart idea!

Do you have to be ambidextrous and can you sit down, turn around and roll up the near side hose?

One on the left in picture is the windows minibore. One on the right is standard 1/2inch filling hose. Red hose inside van ishe pressure washer hose, black one coiled up in the back (just out of view) isthe extra piece of pressure washer hose for some long jobs!
Yellow hose coiled up is for the beast on the roof.

As for the hozelocks on the door, used one as last resort when my metal window reel broke(for the 3rdtime) I COULDN'T BE ARSED OPENING UP ALL THE ANNOYING BOLTS!!

They work ok. They do feel flimsy true enough but I've given them some stick,andthey're still there. They've been pulled off, thrown and punched when i bang my head on the one on the left. Still going. Once i thought it was game over, the middle part blew off, but I put it back together and all's good.

They've been on the van good few months now - would love proper metal ones, but. An't find any.
The metal window ones used to p me off somehow every day.
