I think I am having difficulty understanding why people roll the hose reel around. Could you give me some examples why you would roll the cart instead of just unrolling the hose and then rolling it back while keeping it stationary? Like those hose boxes that you just roll, do your watering, washing, and then reel it back. Is it to keep it light so you don't have to carry the hose if it gets heavy? And do you just reel the hose in as you move it back near garage etc?
I want wheels in case I need to get my hose reel to my backyard

Do you reconnect it every time? Or is one end connected to a hose hub and you just unroll it? Isn't it same as just pulling the hose out. Sorry I'm having a brain fart asking stupid questions. Isn't it easier to just unroll the hose?

I reconnect it cause I bring the entire hose reel to the backyard cause I don't have a hose back there when I need to do stuff and don't want to carry just a coiled up hose. Plus if I unroll my entire hose, it still isn't long enough to reach around my house.

OK that makes sense. Do you use those quick connect couplers, they are life savers. I got them for my pressure washer. Whoever invented them is a saint.

I thought about that, but I don't know how much it'll effect the pressure from the spigot to the hose then to whatever I need to connect it to.

I have quick connects for the hose to the pressure washer and such.

A good quality 50-100' rubber garden hose will run at least $50, or over $100 for a Dramm rubber hose now that Craftsman isn't rebranding their product and selling them for cheap.

That's not something I choose to leave in the front of the house in case it someone else decides they want one for themselves, for free, so it gets carted back to a safer storage area.

I bought the 225' model of the Gorilla last time Walmart had a sale. It's a good, solid cart, certainly much better than the disposable plastic junk that Suncast peddles, but I can already tell where the frame bears the most stress, and might fail at some point in the future, even given the lesser weight of a 100' hose, never mind one that would use the full capacity of the reel.

It's fine for typical light/medium home duty, but something like the Eley will be sturdier, albeit at a much higher price. Buy once, cry once, perhaps.

Suncast ones are really garbage, I wish I never bought them. I am considering getting one of those retractable ones. The ones Costco used to sell thst mounts on wall.

clearly the Eley, but it's also more than double the price.
I purchased an Eley several years ago and would not hesitate to purchase it again. Yes, it does cost a bit more, but it will likely last a lifetime. With 135psi hose bib pressure, it and the leader hose have held up. I am still using a Craftsman hose that is 30+ years old !! I cannot speak to this Gorilla model, but I did purchase it for my son 3 years ago. It has sat out in the Southern California Sun since, and still works fine. Based on reviews, etc. I suggest a Gorilla hose reel is a great alternative to the Eley.

As for quick disconnects, there are none better than Eley. I have never found any that allow the same flow through them as the Eley, they are 3/4 full flow. Years ago Eley stopped offering sales, but that changed about a year ago when the resumed having an occasional sale. Note, I did have an issue with the collar on a male quick disconnect, Eley replaced it.
