ELEY hose reels are offered in two capacity options. All reels are shipped as STANDARD capacity reels.  By assembling the reel with an optional Extra-Capacity Kit, the standard model is modified to accommodate more hose. 

Since the maximum capacity of the standard models is 125-feet of 5/8-inch hose, we don't allow any hose lengths longer than 125-feet to be bundled with a standard-capacity garden hose reel. 

Likewise, since the EXTRA-CAPACITY hose reels will accommodate lengths over 125-feet and up to 200-feet, we don't allow the shorter lengths of garden hose to be bundled with an extra-capacity hose reel. In other words, don't pay for the Extra-Capacity Kit if you don't need it. 

If, in the future, you decide you need more than 125-feet of hose, you can simply purchase the Extra-Capacity Kit and then modify your standard-capacity hose reel.

The ELEY Difference

A Stable, Low-Profile Workhorse

Designed to provide a durable and reliable alternative to the light-duty, box-style garden hose reels, the low profile of our free-standing hose reel is well suited for sitting on a deck or patio or for out-of-sight placement behind bushes or shrubbery. It's also an excellent alternative for those who don't need wheeled portability or prefer to avoid drilling holes into the side of their house. A wide 16x16-inch base with four slip-resistant rubber feet provides excellent no-tip stability. A 1/4-inch hole through the center of each rubber foot allows for additional zero-tip anchoring options if desired.

The ELEY Difference

Drinking-Safe, No-Leak Plumbing

The entire plumbing of all ELEY hose reels consists of just two high-quality, drinking-water-safe components: a 6-1/2 foot x 5/8-inch ID polyurethane inlet hose and a lead-free ECO-brass swivel, which features proprietary ball-bearings for ultra-smooth operation and a revolutionary freeze-resistant design that delivers a full 3/4-inch flow of water volume. Both components are backed by our unprecedented 10-year NO-leak, NO-fail warranty & guarantee!

The ELEY Difference

Rugged, Rust-Proof Construction

Forget about rusting frames, collapsing lightweight tubing, or the frustrations of plastic components twisting, binding, and breaking under the weight of water-filled hose. The rigidity and strength of our aluminum-alloy construction, combined with stainless-steel hardware, and a durable powder-coat finish, means 10+ years of rust & trouble-free performance; guaranteed!

The ELEY Difference

Practical, Easy-To-Use Functionality

We're not just the most durable hose reel on the market but also one of the most enjoyable to use. Several common-sense features were specifically designed into the reels to make your watering tasks easier and frustration-free. Our innovative cam-lever brake, along with a rugged, comfort-grip crank handle, and smooth-spin axle bushings, all combine to take the "work" out of your watering and cleaning activities. All ELEY reels can also be configured for either left or right-hand rewinding.

Frequently Asked Questions - Free-Standing Reel

These FAQs are specific to the free-standing reel, model 1042. For general FAQs about all ELEY reels, visit our Garden Hose Reels FAQs.
Is the hose reel easily tipped over?

No, our free-standing hose reel will not easily tip over. It has a wide base with rubber feet to help keep it stable and weighs 23 lbs. For added stability, the hose reel can be staked to the ground or anchored to a solid surface.
Can this reel be anchored to a solid surface?

Yes, the rubber feet on the base of the 1042 Free Standing Garden Hose Reel have 1/4-inch open rivet holes that can be utilized for anchoring the reel to a solid surface. You will want to select the proper hardware for your mounting application from your local hardware store.
Does this reel tip-over or slide on mulch, rock, gravel?

The ELEY Free-Standing Garden Hose Reel may slide or move if sitting on a loose impediment as the rubber feet need to contact a solid surface in order to hold it in place.  If you wish to anchor the reel to the ground, you can use up to a ¼” landscape spike through the open rivet holes in the feet. Or you might consider putting the reel a solid surface like a paver at least 20” wide.
Can I mount it to a trailer?

No, the ELEY garden hose reels are not intended for over-the-road applications. The warranty of the product does not apply when products are used in excess of their rated capacities and design functions or under abnormal conditions.
Is assembly required?

Yes, however, don't let that scare you away. Quick and easy assembly was one of our R&D team's primary objectives when designing the durable ELEY hose reels.  We provide an excellent assembly manual with the hose reel as well as a full step-by-step video demonstration of the assembly on this website. Please visit our Assembly Instructions - Free-Standing Hose Reel page if you'd like to preview the manual and video.
