steve - what hose do you use and how much of it?

I've never been to bed with an ugly bird but I've woken up with loads!

Put it on a base plate with the ability to rotate.

i will put 100-150 metres of minibore on it,

 i also find myself going back to reel to make sure the hose isnt a foot high accross the pavement as they dont free wheel very well

I use an Ionics stainless steel hosereel. It's pricey, but IMO worth it as it is definitely a much better build quality and practical hosereel than the one shown in the top picture.

Same here, not light weight, but very robust.

ok cleaning
