A Hozelock Auto Reel is an automatic garden hose reel designed to keep your hose protected, neatly stored and ready to use. Pull out the length of hose you need and the mechanism holds it in position while you water. When you have finished, a short pull releases the lock and the hose rewinds into the casing at a controlled speed.
This makes an Auto Reel a practical choice for anyone who uses a garden hose regularly but does not want to manually wind it back onto a reel after every job. It also reduces the amount of loose hose left across lawns, patios, driveways and paths.
Masseys stocks wall-mounted Hozelock Auto Reels for fixed installation and the wheeled Hozelock Auto Reel Mobile for customers who want automatic rewind without permanently mounting a reel to one wall.
The best model depends on the distance from your outdoor tap to the furthest area you need to reach, as well as whether you want a permanent wall-mounted installation or a reel that can be moved around.
| Model | Type | Best suited to | Why choose it? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hozelock Auto Reel 25m + FREE Multi Spray Plus | Wall mounted | Small to medium gardens, patios and driveways | A compact fixed installation with enough reach for many typical gardens. The Multi Spray Plus gun is included for watering and outdoor cleaning. |
| Hozelock Auto Reel 40m + FREE Multi Spray Plus | Wall mounted | Medium to large gardens, long plots and larger driveways | Provides substantially more reach from one outdoor tap and is well suited to deeper gardens or areas around more than one side of a property. |
| Hozelock Auto Reel Mobile 35m | Mobile wheeled reel | Gardens where one fixed mounting point is unsuitable | Combines automatic rewind with a wheeled chassis, folding support leg and long hose, allowing the reel to be positioned where it is needed. |
Before choosing a model, measure the likely route of the hose rather than only measuring the garden from one end to the other. Allow extra length for moving around furniture, borders, corners, vehicles and other obstacles.
The internal spring mechanism draws the hose back into the casing after use. A controlled rewind is easier than manually turning a reel handle and helps prevent the hose from being left in a loose pile.
The hose is guided back across the reel as it retracts. This helps it store evenly inside the casing and reduces the risk of knots, tangles and badly wound hose.
The reel locks the hose at the required length while you work. You do not have to pull the entire hose out for smaller jobs such as watering containers close to the house.
The 25m and 40m models use a pivoting wall bracket, allowing the reel to follow your direction as you move around the garden. The 35m Auto Reel Mobile places the automatic rewind system on a wheeled frame for customers who want greater flexibility.
The current Auto Reel models are supplied with hose and the principal fittings required to connect them to a suitable outdoor tap. The exact spray nozzle or spray gun supplied varies by model, so check the individual product page for the complete package contents.
Masseys recommends Hozelock Auto Reels to customers who use a hose frequently and want a reliable system that is quick to pull out and easy to put away. They are particularly useful where a loose hose regularly becomes twisted, blocks a path or is left exposed on the ground after watering.
For many small to medium gardens, we consider the 25m wall-mounted Auto Reel the most balanced option because it provides useful reach without taking up as much wall space as the larger model. The 40m version is the better choice where the outdoor tap is a long distance from the end of the garden, lawn or driveway. We recommend the 35m Auto Reel Mobile where there is no suitable central wall, where the hose needs to serve separate areas, or where the reel must be stored away after use.
A manual reel may still be sufficient for occasional watering or where budget is the main consideration. For regular use, however, the automatic rewind mechanism is a worthwhile upgrade because it removes much of the effort involved in storing a long hose correctly.
A good mounting position can make as much difference as the hose length itself. Choose a location that provides a clear route into the main watering areas and allows the reel to pivot without striking a doorway, downpipe, fence or other obstruction.
The bracket must be fixed to a sound surface using fixings suitable for the wall construction and the weight of the reel. Follow the supplied Hozelock installation instructions and take extra care with rendered, lightweight or insulated walls where standard fixings may not be appropriate.
Position the reel close enough to the tap for the feeder hose to connect without being stretched. It should also remain accessible enough to disconnect and remove when required.
Alongside Auto Reels, Masseys stocks a broad selection of Hozelock watering products for maintaining lawns, borders, pots and outdoor spaces.
A standard hose reel normally requires the user to wind the hose back onto the drum using a handle. A Hozelock Auto Reel uses a spring-powered mechanism to retract and store the hose automatically after use.
Choose the 25m model where it comfortably reaches the furthest part of a small or medium garden. Choose the 40m version for deeper gardens, longer driveways or properties where the tap is a considerable distance from the main watering area. Measure the route the hose will actually take and allow some spare length.

No. The 35m Auto Reel Mobile is mounted on a wheeled chassis and uses a folding front support for stability. It is designed for customers who want automatic rewind without a fixed wall installation.
