Coxreels 112-3-100 Hand Crank Hose Reel - Heavy-Duty Steel Frame for Stability - Adjustable Tension Brake for Controlled Operation- Fits 3/8 x 100 ft Hose - 12 x 18.25 x 13 inches

Definitely expensive but build quality is top notch I am really enjoying this hose reel.I did have to buy a internal connection piece to connect my pressure washer hose up on the inside but it was available at home depot (see picture of inside of reel)Also I had to be mounted on a peice of wood as it is less the 16 inches wide so you can not mount directly to studs

I purchased this reel to go with my wall mounted Active 2.0 power washer found herehttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BK25S1FW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_titleThe reel is very sturdy and well built. Highly recommend. It has a tension brake to keep the hose right where it is. Very nice brass fittings. This reel will definitely last the test of time. When I received it, on the back is a square bracket with like 5.7" space in between for mounting.For mounting on the wall if you have drywall say in your garage and you dont want to cut the wall and put in a center brace. You will need a bracket that spans across the 16" studs to allow you to mount the bracket. I found mine at clean garage. Once mounted up. I couldn't be happier. Looks great.I paired mine with the shelf herehttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D9GQPNN9?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

Purchased for DIY custom wall mounted Active 2.0 pressure washer and reel combo. Selected the Cox over some of the lower priced options due to overall build quality, and a bit more compact against the wall for my space.Reel is very heavy duty, did notice one chip in the powder coating inside the reel, but not with returning for exchange, Will hit with some touch up paint to prevent rusting.Note will need to purchase whip hose to connect to pressure washer separately. I used a quick connect plug to connect the hose to the reel, since my hose already had male quick connects attached and did not have a swivel end.

Hose brake broke within a couple of months, of course just outside the return window. Contacted the Coxreels people and they said they knew the part was defective, and sent out a replacement brake part. It's "easy" to fix they said. It's junk, don't waste your money. They should have replaced the entire reel.

The quality and build on this is definitely good. All connections with my Comet 1700 pressure washer, jumper hose and 3/8" 50ft' hose worked right out of the box without any leaks. The only thing I hate about this reel is the wobble when reeling; it moves about 1/4" back and forth. Expected better for this price range. But a friend of mine has the same issue on his coxreel as well, and seems others have mentioned this in their reviews. Not worth uninstalling and returning though. Bought this because ObsessedGarage claims its the best on the market. Had to mount this on a piece of 2x4 wood (which itself is mounted to my wall studs); the 4 mounting holes on this reel aren't exactly easy to screw in since the barrel itself gets in the way a bit.

The machining is perfect and all parts matted to minimal tolerances. It's feels study and something that'll last forever. The threads on mine is free from powder coating or rust marks.Did I forget to mention? It's made in USA! Absolutely love USA made products--especially heavy duty machining.Update 10/17/2020:I finally managed to install everything and this guy proved to be a bit of difficulty. Yes, everything feels solid, no doubt. The issue lies in the threading. The hose to the inner barrel doesn't just screw on easily; even for a 3/8th screw. You need to force-thread the hose in.The outer swivel thread doesn't screw in perfectly to the jumper line OR a simple bolt. Again, you have to force it in like you're going to strip it. After all the forcing, it is officially leak-free.That is a comet static 1700 extra with an Amazon jumper line, homemade Continental rubber hose cut to length, kobrajet 3/8 75' hose. Don't ask how I kept everything leak-free because that took a whole 2hr job of Teflon tape and further torqing to make it happen. There's no quick disconnect on the gun because it doesn't make any sense to free it and have to connect it up again.

This reel is smooth like butter. Handles everything I thow at it like a boss. It locks in place and is super sturdy. You get what you pay for! No leaks, connections are top notch. I just wish it came with a whip.

Went through three cheap, plastic hose reels in 8 years before I realized I don’t make enough money to buy cheap tools. Mounted this on the side of our house with 3/4” adapters + fittings and a 3/4” garden hose. Complete pain to install because this thing is heavy! Lag bolts through cedar 2x4s in an “h” shape did the trick. Provides more than enough pressure for what we need, unrolls and rolls the garden hose back up with ease. Completely over-engineered by design. It’s probably going to outlast the rest of the house. This thing is sturdy and very well made.
