Originally purchased a DELRICO and it lasted for years. Then I purchased reels from other outlets, which lasted six months------Rubbish!!.
Then I found DELRICO again ( as they had moved ) and bought a 28mtr hose, which I hope will now outlive me.

Got a 28m Retractable Hose Reel delivered. Good Quality and works fine, how you expect it to be.

I ordered the 28 meter hose reel when it arrived I was pleasantly suprised of the quality of the hose reel and the speed of delivery.

Approximate cost: $170

I bought a new Delrico hose reel to replace the old Delrico which my husband bought about 2005. The new 28 metre hose fitted straight onto the bracket with no trouble, and I was most impressed to find a masonry drill bit to fit the bracket on the wall if necessary. Excellent high quality product and service.

Approximate cost: $165

12 year old retractable reel, going as strong as ever. Love it. Great service and a new bracket was available & cheap also!

Good, bought my first 3 reels in 2003. 2 x have finally expired, third one is still going strong!. Based on past performances I have bought 2 new reels. Pleasant staff here are very helpful and knowledgable.

JanJef 6th Nov My husband and I bought 2 hose reels from Delrico, 1 for the front and 1 for the back gardens. They are made of very good quality and retract very easy after use. We would recommend the hose reel to anyone looking for a neat, tidy yard without hose laying around.

I ask myself,why didn't I purchase these reels years ago. Have found them reliable and easy to use, brass fittings ensure no blow offs at the tap.
I bought both the 14 and 28 metre, I found the 28 metre easier to fit as it has a separate bracket as apposed to the integrated bracket on the 14 metre.

Approximate cost: $250

Every hose reel will be a Delrico from now on. Pope 30m $199. Delrico 28m $165. Delrico superior in every way.

Brass fittings on both ends

I wish I had have known about these hose reels in the past as I have 3 different types in my house, Pope, Holman and Delrico and the Delrico is way by far the best. The Pope is a year old and showing its age, the holman is just inferior to the Pope, but the Delirco has solid fittings, it does retract similar to the pope, and it just feels like a more solid product.

If ever I need to replace the other hose reels, it will be Delrico.

Approximate cost: $165

I ordered the 28m hose on Thursday night and it arrived Saturday morning. Was kept up to date on whole sale delivery process with tracking provided. Hose was well packaged. Very impressed with quality of fittings.

Hose has not been connected yet so unable to comment but will do so one it has had some use.

Approximate cost: $165
