Comes with a carry handle for transportation and a lever to wind the hose back onto the coil.
The winding handle is a bit tough to rotate initially.
This is a compact model that can be stored away as well as wall-mounted, and it's never going to get lost if you leave it out in the garden since the hose is a bright orange. It is a bit heavy and tough to wind so not the perfect fit for a delicate housewife.

Licence to Carry
Want to keep your garden beautiful and healthy but don’t feel like mounting a large roll of hosepipe on your wall? We recommend the Hozelock 24150000, a model that can be not only wall-mounted but free-standing as well. You can use this portable hose to water your plants and then grab the carrying handle and take it back into the tool shed.
The bright orange Hozelock hosepipe will be easy to notice even in tall grass, especially since there are a whopping 25 metres of it, enough to cross the entire yard and water plants in the faraway corners. However, don’t forget that you’ll have to wind that length back and while the hose is relatively lightweight, the winding handle is a bit tough to move initially. So you’ll not only keep your garden green but also get some wicked biceps!
Jokes aside, you also won’t have to worry about the hose being damaged by the elements or by a naughty pet chewing through it as the plastic coil locks to keep its contents safe. Just make sure the hose is fully on the coil and the standard nozzle isn’t sticking out.
Overall, we wouldn’t have minded an actual auto-rewind function instead of the lever-operated model but that’s not such a big flaw. The Hozelock 24150000 retractable garden hose is convenient to store, long enough to cover a large backyard, and its bright orange colour makes the hose easy to spot so you won’t ever run it over with a lawnmower.

Reel It In
Garden hoses can often be a pain to deal with, especially when you’re using an extra long hose that needs to be rolled up after use. Just this fact alone often means that people are sometimes less likely to use the hose than they would if it were easier to deal with afterwards. For those who find themselves in this same boat, what you need is the GARDENA Classic wall-fixed Hose Reel set. This garden hose kit not only gives you a 20 meter hose that can reach all around a medium to large sized yard, but you also get a hose reel that lets you easily reel in and store the hose whenever the product is not in use. This greatly simplifies the operation of the hose, and makes it nothing but a pleasure to use, meaning you can now keep your garden watered thoroughly with ease.
Flexible Expanding Hose
Garden hoses tend to be cumbersome items. This is especially true of long hoses, which are often quite bulky and heavy to carry around, especially when wound up. Wouldn't it be nice to have a garden hose that is not only flexible but also able to shrink itself to make it more compact? If this is something that you've ever wondered about, then your prayers have been answered. The FlexiHose Upgraded 50 FT Expandable Garden Hose is a lightweight, compact garden hose that has a small body length whenever it is not in use, making it light and easy to carry. Once you turn on the water, though, the hose will expand out to three times its initial size, making it long enough to reach the furthest corners of your yard.
This expandable garden hose is able to achieve this remarkable feat due to its double-layered latex design, which not only makes it extremely flexible and expandable but which also provides a high level of protection against leaks from forming. The strong and durable brass connectors ensure that the hose will remain tightly connected at either end. This hose also comes with an 8-pattern spray gun nozzle which lets you easily shoot out a stream of water in whichever pattern you require. For those who are looking for a lightweight and retractable water hose that is still long enough to water even a large lawn, this model will most likely be your best bet.

Durable From End to End
No matter how strong a garden hose is, it always seems inevitable that it will eventually spring a leak. Whether the tubing obtains a puncture, or the connector gives way to corrosion, leaks are just a part of the garden hose experience with most types of hoses. That is why the makers of the Fixkit Garden Hose have done their best to make a leak-proof garden hose that is well protected from one end to the other. Starting with the connectors, they are made of pure copper and are highly resistant to the corrosive effects of the weather, ensuring that the hose maintains a tight and secure connection to the tap. The hose itself is also one of the most durable we’ve seen, made of 3 layer natural latex along with 3750D polyester fabric, giving it an extremely strong exterior that is highly resistant to punctures while maintaining a level of flexibility that hoses with metal exteriors simply can’t match.

Stainless Steel Construction
Most garden hoses have one huge drawback to them - at some point, they are going to develop leaks thanks to one of many variables. Animal bites, snags, and even being stepped on will inevitably damage a water hose, making it leak out far from the tip and thus making it virtually useless. With the rubber or latex construction of most garden hoses, there seems to be little that can be done to make them more durable. The HIGH GRAND 100FT Stainless Steel Garden Hose With Free Nozzle has solved this by being made of a stainless steel body, making it virtually indestructible and highly durable. The stainless steel body covering provides a high level of protection that most other garden hoses can't match.
Along with its stainless steel body, this flexible garden hose comes with durable brass connectors that will withstand the elements quite well, as well as two different types of nozzles. The gun nozzle lets you easily hold the hose and allows for careful aiming of the water stream, and includes an 8-pattern adjustable nozzle that gives you a variety of watering patterns. One drawback to this hose is that the stainless steel body does make it a bit heavy to carry, but the flexibility of this hose easily matches that of most other models. All in all, this highly durable long garden hose should remain trouble-free for years to come.

What Is a Garden Hose?
A garden hose (also known as a hosepipe or simply a hose), as you would imagine, is a flexible tube that is used to distribute water in a convenient manner. For the most part, people use these things to water their plants and other elements of the vegetable kingdom. But, of course, a hose like that can also be used to wash a car, shower your pets, and do all kinds of things depending on the model. Speaking of which, the difference between these models usually lies with the choice of materials. Some hoses are made of polyester fabric or polymer, while others are comprised of steel and latex. The choice of material also determines the model's flexibility and durability properties, so take those into account when you go looking for a specific model. Aside from that, make sure to check whether the nozzle is part of the package. And if it is, check for the number of spray patterns it supports as those can determine the number of watering options you will have at your disposal. You could also look into the extra features that it offers and the kind of temperature and water pressure the model is capable of withstanding, though the latter doesn't really matter that often.
