Product Information

Available in the perfect size for your garden – Auto Reel has hose options to suit gardens of all sizes, from 10m up to 40m in length. I prefer brass metal fittings and some competitors produce solid brass connectors on their expandable hoses but there’s no metal to be found on the Superhoze.

Longer versions of expandable pipes can be cumbersome when full of water and difficult to drag around. The Hozelock Superhoze comes with the usual plastic fittings that most gardeners have come across before or already own. uk/browse/garden-and-diy/hoses-and-garden-watering/hoses-and-sets/c:29514/brands:hozelock/" on this server.Superhoze is made up from a highly elastic inner core and a soft, yet robust outer, meaning that there are no hard materials to fold or bend which can create kinks or tangles in some traditional garden hoses. The braking mechanism ensures a controlled rewind whilst the layering system neatly coils the hose with no kinks or tangles.

I can’t imagine getting years of use if it’s frequently dragged over concrete, patios or gravel etc. Can the Superhoze be used on a hose reel, or does it need to be fully unwound to allow the expansion?

As Superhoze is filled with water and expands, the two independent layers glide smoothly over each other, ensuring a continuous water-flow.

Some products may be delivered straight to your door from one of our suppliers and these products will be labelled within the product description. Expands up to three times its original length and quickly shrinks back to its original size after use.

The only issue I can see is the lack of an inline tap, although I could use the slider on the spray gun to adjust the flow of water; still, I would prefer an inline tap. It did have an inline tap to adjust the flow rate and didn’t leak, but I felt it was too similar to the Hozelock Superhoze. Expands up to x3 – Superhoze expands up to x3 its original length and then shrinks back down to its original size after use.

The dynamic design of superhoze enables it to expand up to three times its original length for easy reach and then shrink back in size after use for convenient storage. I had issues controlling the flow rate out of the expanded pipe with the cheap nozzle/sprayer (more about that later). It didn’t come with a reducer so “out of the box” it won’t fit smaller tap sizes (there are two tap sizes in the UK).

Can more than one Superhoze be joined together, and what are the maximum lengths that can be joined? The Superhoze is made up of a highly elastic inner core and a soft, yet robust outer, meaning that there are no hard materials to fold or bend which can create kinks or tangles in some regular garden hoses.

Integrated child lock – this convenient lock prevents the hose from being pulled out by children, ensuring the hose is only pulled out when needed. Flexi Hose came with an inline tap so I could adjust the flow rate, this stopped the pipe from shrinking. I disliked the colour, and as it doesn’t come with a reel, I’ll have to look at it draped over the tap whenever I’m in the garden. Puts itself away– when it is time to rewind the hose, a simple tug unlatches the drum, and the Auto Reel’s patented automatic rewind system takes over.
