Been using that reel for a while it does a good job but I found that if you pull the hose to the side ,the hose catches on the side of the reel as it is a petal design ,I have just bought the caber reel from gardiners for £40 looks good but don't think it would hold 100 m of 8 mm  ,I bought the thiner hose

I have been using the black one of these from the cleaning warehouse(wolves) for over 2 years still going strong it was loaded with 8 mm minibore and that's still going too!!!

I have the Thermobore hose from gardiners and the outer diameter of the hose must be 10 mm as it has  a much thicker inner  hose and it fits fine on the Claber reel they sell . Mike
