What size Post did you use? I am looking at the Hoselink Reel like the one you installed on this video however, I purchased 4X4 posts and based on the dimensions of the brackets I don't think it will fit on a 4x4. In your links you do have 4x4 of the composite cover you put over the post that would indicate you used a 4x4 but you don't mention it and I would have to think you actually used a 6X6 post, no?
The price seems to fluctuate. I ordered mine last week at $259. Just looked on your link and it is now $249
@@robwaelchli1063 I have mine mounted on a 4x4 post. It is really close to the edges, but it seems to be on there good.
Hey Hoselink, I know he doesn't get any commission for sales because of this video, but just know that I wouldn't have bought your product if not for Patrick's endorsement.
Great video, as always. :)
Thanks Dima! Hope you are loving your reel!
Another FANTASTIC video! I've been eyeballing this for a while, but I didn't want to attach it to the house. Thanks for the alternative, it looks fantastic and also thanks for the coupon code. Sending the link to Honey as a STRONG gift hint. 😁 BTW... your lawn is looking great!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you
I have one in the front and one in the back. They are worth every penny. One of the best home accessory purchases I have ever mad. Self retraction for the win!
I also have an eley and they are very nice but mine corroded out on the aluminum since you can't take it in. This seems a better match for Mass weather and I underestimated how awesome the spring action is like you said too
How much did it cost you?
@@anonymoose6873 $179 in March and $199 in May of 2021
I have the same setup one for front yard one for backyard. They are worth every penny…I have never been so motivated to water my plants
So happy to hear you like your reels Matthew!
I love the fact that you only present products you would actually use. Great video and I'll be looking for one of these.
Might have to pick a couple of these up. Haven’t been able to find a good solid hose reel yet and my hoses have been coiled up on the ground.
Only issue I can see is these would make wonderful wasp houses 😂
Eley hose reels are a beefy metal reel option, but they are not enclosed mor self-retracting. They are, however, incredibly well built and you can get replacement parts for them as well.
Hopefully you have better luck with it.. my unit broke after 3 times of retracting it.
Expected
Are u referring to this product in the video, lil erb?
Great Aussie company 🇦🇺👍 I have had one for about 7 years and just make sure you buy the cover to protect it. The cover will last 5 years or so but the hose reel will stay like new
Thanks Peter!
Do you still have it after all these years? I'm curious how this thing ages because I've always heard that they leak internally and are a nightmare to fix if they do get a leak inside.
@incubrian yeah still got it and used almost daily. I replaced the cover again 4 months ago. No leaks
I don't mean to sound sexist to women. But this is "The Men's" channel of youtube. Edit. It's the "Get it done right channel" of youtube. For women and men alike lmao 🤣
You gotta share! This channel is for whomever is doing the work! 😁
@@PammyRock i scrolled down after commenting this and you were the next comment. I was like yep I'm an idiot lol I'll change the comment lol
You're a wonderful person! Appreciate it! All in fun!
After watching this video, I did this exact install including the foam post set and PVC post cover. Really a great upgrade to the house. Thanks.
So glad it helped!
Great installation, glad you love our retractable reel!
One of my fave channels. Almost always something I'm into.
You will love those hoselink connectors. I have excessive pressure at my house and these are the only hose connections that I've found to work.
That's great to hear. They seem very clever and its shocking how much they weigh when you are used to little cheapie plastic ones, these are solid.
John: Excessive pressure is a blessing to many parts of the country. Considering
the ultra low pressure the folks endure with. SHOWER etc.
You can dial that excessive pressure down. Homes have a pressure regulator somewhere, and they are adjustable.
@@tedlahm5740 In many cases, that pressure drop is introduced at the shower head. Heads I've seen have a small plastic insert near the pipe threads, and you can just remove the insert before re-attaching the head to the pipe.
What state do you live in ? Your place is beautiful!
Very nice of you, I am in Massachusetts
I bet that 6' wooden post cost more than the hose reel.
The surprising part is that the post was only $9 at lowes. The plastic cover was $35 so looks can be expensive but wood seems to slowly be getting back to normal prices.
How does that plastic bracket hold up? Suspect
One word !!!!! AMAZING😮😮😮😀😀😀😀!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are my idol. Nothing else to say.
You are so funny, thank you for the nice words
Too much 💵💵💵 😳
These are cool👍🏻
I'd make very sure to have that bracket level. Otherwise you'll always be fighting gravity as it wants to flop one side or the other.
You Sir are AWESOME!!! Always showing GREAT Products that make sense and that are useful. Looking forward to the next GREAT VIDEO.
I appreciate that!
Thank you so much for your invaluable information, highly appreciate it, keep it up the outstanding job, have a great day.
Australia yes! 👍🇦🇺
Good video and made me decide to buy this product versus another brand
Nice set-up . When putting any post in the ground it is a good plan to add pea pebbles under the post to help prevent wood rot .
Or just gravel. Easier to get and usually cheaper.
I bought one back in March. I love it. It's worth the price! Especially when your used to cranking a plastic reel. Great idea with the install of the post! Appreciate all your reviews! Keep up the great content!
I have 4 and absolutely LOVE them!!! Life is so much easier now. Great video! Thank you
Does it have reely good online reviews? 🤣
You can check their site, but they also sold on Amazon for a long time, not sure why they stopped but the reviews are excellent there: amzn.to/3yrp5Ik
Oh it said hose!.......i just of read it wrong. I was like what kind of pimpin is this!. Lol jk lol.
Love mine 👍
That's great to hear!
Got one a year ago. I should put it up some day.
Just bought one because of this video - thanks!
In the south the Utility Companies use the same type of foam to set power line poles.
I recently got a hose reel, and was about to give it away until I saw this video. I'm doing this! Thank you.
Good job and another great video review SC! You have my attention!!
I appreciate that!
Yes! When are you available to install? 😅🙌
I bought one and gifted one to my parents. I think the hose reel is awesome, but I have had nothing but trouble with the nozzle and quick connects. First time I used them both broke. Hoselink did replace both pieces but I havent used the replacements.
Makita man, respect
Love your review of this product! This appears to be better than any other reel I’ve seen. I’d like to see if I can get the PVC sleeve in other colors. Thanks, I look forward to your videos!
Am old school have a mounted tire rim to wrap my hose around. I tend to like to reuse items. Great review as always, myself I am afraid that the retractable portion would probably break after a few uses. But Great post set up and my use the foam for some use.
Nice
I’ve seen several videos to get ideas on how to install my HoseLink. This is hands down the best installation I’ve seen. So clever and innovative. Great job!
Outstanding Video. Your videos are always on point and great to watch. Thanks again.
are use a retractable hose reel for my air compressor, never thought about using one for water. Good idea, I may consider purchasing one. Thanks for the information.
I’ve been considering reels, of lesser quality but similar money, from the big box stores to mount to my shed (also delivered on a mule lol)…. Thinking that in order to mount this on studs I’d have to go to the inside the shed and build out a stud with an additional 2x4 vertical on each side until the width became 6” to mount the reel receiver with proper support. Does that seem like a good approach? As always, great and informative video, SC.
Hi Tom! We generally recommend just making a backing board (same dimensions as the bracket) from plywood, and attaching the backing board directly to the studs with 2 screws down the center. You can learn more by watching this video:

If you keep showing me things like this, I'll need a second job
I just spent a pretty penny on a Gorilla hose reel, which is great. But this looks amazing as well, and it was another excellent video. Thanks for posting!
I have seen those hoses for awhile. You just made a fantastic video showing easy installation. I am definitely getting this for my next house.
I have one of these in the uk and it’s defo worth the money. You can’t go wrong
i need 1, looks like i found a new project.
durability is my concern
CAFÉ & CHARGE, THEATERS ALSO FOOD STORES ETC. Ford needs to buy cars from tesla all should buy tesla. what a way to go around dealers and having showrooms everyone will win but the big three now Elon should ramp up and get this order produced and delivered now! hertz. buy or rent from hertz..
I like it. I want one. I wonder if there’s a cover to put over it, keep critters from building a nest inside.
I know they sell some optional covers, that may help with that. We have a lot of mice where I live. haven't had them in the hose reel yet, I hope they stay out.
Cover is 20 bucks. Nice product but I need about 200 feet of hose on it before it'll do me any good.
That's pretty cool. I have 5 acres so I use one of the hose carts that holds 400 ft but I might consider one of those for the beds around the house
Good day to all i have one just like this one and this works good .
It looks like a great product...any foreseeable issues? I can't think of any
The finish and quality of it were very good. I don't expect problems based on reviews but I love that you can get parts later, a hose reel could be in use forever. I have an old Hozelock in my garage thats 20+ years old this reminds me a lot of that one, good quality, for some reason they never sold in the US, so it's nice to see someone following the good euro style models that are durable.

Im getting one of these thanks for the suggestion!
You’re like a lawn Wizard. Another thing I’ve been looking for. ❤️🤘
When I Google Lawn wizard all I get his lawn maintenance companies
Perfect timing. Thank you.
Installed 2 yesterday. Love them. Thanks for recommending them
They are really the best portable reels on the market, glad you are enjoying then, a year later mine are all working as well as new
That is really cool! Thanks for the info!
Great timing! I ordered mine and got it last week and was planning on installing it tomorrow! Thanks for the tips!
So glad it was helpful, I was very impressed with this reel and quality I think you will love it
Make sure you check out our UA-cam channel for more tips too!
@silvacymbal, what do you call the cap you placed on the post?
This is pretty useful! Might consider one of these at our next home!
He says great reviews but perhaps the company only posts positive reviews on their site. Seems suspect. :-(
I agree, many sleezy companies do that. Check Amazon amzn.to/3yrp5Ik they dont sell there any longer, not really sure why. But they used to. There are also hundreds of positive reviews there. They cant control those.
4:34 Man that horse is strange
Its cool and looks like it's good quality but it's ugly as hell if never want that attached to my house
Assuming the same hose length and diameter, do you prefer the gardena or the hoselink?
Got one last year, game changer
doesn’t look like you can splice the hose if there’s a hole. Do you have to replace the entire thing if so?
They've got an easy repair kit in the event of any punctures etc: www.hoselink.com/products/retractable-hose-reel-repair-kit?
Grass by the shed looking good.
You didn't show how to take the hose out of the housing or how to replace the hose in the housing
Just bought mine 👍
I love my Hoselink reel. It's been brilliant.
Please stop saying hoes
STOP doing these reviews! Right now I'm single and can buy all the toys I want, but if I'm married one day, this could lead to divorce!! 😜 JK, another great review!
Silver Cymbal: just dig a 4’ hole with a post hole digger
Texas: rrrright…..
Terrible product. I used mine 5 times and the retractable springs broke! Waste of money and I would not recommend. Just need to get that out there! FYI. I had this located in my heated garage. No outside elements what so ever!
I have moved since I made this video, and if you indeed have the Hoselink call them to have them replace it. After using dozens of reels this is still my favorite this outside one gets used daily here and stayed outside in New Hampshire. Its good: ua-cam.com/video/OKnZG2o97H4/v-deo.html I think they will help you
Is that hose measurement ID or OD? Thanks...
Must be a plug for the Foam cement. That stuff is garbage. It doesn't work. Use real concrete. Mine is tilted at a 45-degree because the Foam is garbage. Maybe it can hold 5 pounds but that's it
Soryr but even after using that hose for a year it held up great for me. If you ground around the post is too soft maybe that would impact it but I was very surprised how well it work. I have no connection to Silka. but I would use this again in a second
You are very creative,knowledgeable, and present your reviews in a easy way.
Thanks a lot 😊
it looks like gypsy on mystery science 3000
should i do this setup or the spike gardena one you did?
I live in British Columbia, Canada. I can not find a way to get it delivered to me here. I wish there was a Canadian representative. If anyone knows of a way for me to get a hose link and accessory parts to Canada please let me know. Thank you.
Everytime the hose is retracted, it will have some grass pieces or whatnot stuck to it. I wonder how the retracting mechanism will fare overtime with debris accumulated.
WOW! Another 🔥 video. Why you don’t have 1M+ subscribers is a head scratcher.
This looks precisely the same as the system from Gardena a German company that's making garden equipment for many years. I have one of those and works perfectly. Strange to hear you say that other products are shit, maybe this is something not available in US but I got not imagine that.
I’d love to see a review of quick connect hose fittings that are reliable and do not leak and reasonably priced. The harbor freight’s it is junk that leaks
Heyyy these are from ‘Straya! Expensive AF though.
I love the video but almost puked when I saw how much this reel costs. I know it's the best but I will use all the suff in your video but look for something a bit less expensive.
is that plastic foam?
Damn, wish you had put this video out 3 months ago!
Great video!!! I'll be using the Post Fix to install PVC for a flag pole. Never heard of this until now. Thank you bro!!
Did it work or is it tilted 45 degree like my hose reel
@@BlueMaserati Did NOT work. Junk and waste of $$
How has the poly post mix held up over time? Im gonna do this when my hose link comes in, not sure if I wanna use the poly mix or concrete.
How long is the hose that connects to the house?
Thats a good question, I should have included it, here it is: Leader Hose 6'6"ft (2m)
@@SilverCymbal Thanks! the hose spigot in the back yard is somewhat inconveniently behind my oil tank, so I like to run a jumper out to the corner of the house for hose reels.
Dude yeah!!!
I have dreamt of a hose reel that uses the attached water supply to wash the incoming hose as it is being wound up. But I never hunted for one (too lazy).
Unrelated, but can you do a video or give your recommendation on hose quick connect attachments.
How's this still holding up?
