That doesnt bother me. Already worked out how it done. If you never had to pull that lever in and out then it would have been even better!

Looks simple to use.
But I wouldn't want to be drilling holes in the side of my van.
Also looking at the video it seems that you are dictated to only being able to pull hose out from one side of the van which could be a hassle.

So what's wrong with keeping your pole-hose attached to your reel-hose and just opening the door, same difference and no extra outlay.

£1400  :o....anyone who buys that must have rocks in their head.

I have spent more than £1400 developing mine.

Money well spent.

I recon the Tims fixed hose reel is better even although he has to open his back doors to wind the hose back in.

Very undecided about the poles being attached to the outside of the van though. Nice idea, but theft of the pole not used is very possible and probably inviting.

I also don't like the idea of a couple of holes in the side of the van to wind the hose reels in as has been commented on. Where did he store the cranking handle as I didn't notice?

Initially I thought the poles outside was quite cool, but then I remembered we goto several care homes and apartment blocks with low archway entrances...

Snapped pole me thinks 😱

Interesting solution to winding in problem but maybe should have gone electric.

Love your setup soupy
