I just saw that Northern has 300' hose reel that holds 5/8" hose for $100. I was excited about that until the cashier rang it up for $79.99. I was very, very happy. It's a heavy duty one too, not made of plastic. I will let you know how it works when I get it together.
It is a Wel-Bilt item # 163152, 300 ft hose reel cart. It is nice. On my receipt it rang up for $99.99, then took off $20 for the sale. It has 4 wheels that come off easy and has backwards fittings for my setup, but thats an easy fix. I'm hoping it will last a while as long as I run water through it aftere each use. I asked the cashier at northern if it was for all Northerns or just mine in Ft. Myers, and she said it was at all stores. I don't know how to hyperlink, I have a bad back.
Yes, that's it, $80. I don't think you can beat the price.
I bought one almost identical to that one at Home Depot. I took the wheels off of it and mounted it to the truck for garden hose storage. Now I just wind up the water hose just like I do the chem hose.
For anyone that doesn't have a Northern nearby, try your local HD?
