The Sunneday retractable XW-30B 5/8" 100 ft series hose reel is a true life saver. Simply pull hose to the desired length. The Hose Reel will stop and lock in place allowing you to water at a specific length. Once done, simply give the hose a gentle tug and the hose reel will retract all the way back in. No need to worry about the hose tangling inside the reel. With its guidance system, the hose will roll up perfectly every time.<br />The Sunneday XW Series also comes with a patented slow rewind system. So, when you are ready for the hose to retract in, simply drop the hose and the slow rewind system will retract hose at a slow speed which allows for a comfortable safe rewind. Most systems will retract at high rates of speed which can destroy things in the path on the way in.<br />The mounting system allows the unit to swivel 180 degrees. It's also a quick release mounting system so simply lift on handle to remove for storage.
