Verve Freestanding Hose Reel Set

Cheapest on test, and you can see where retailer B&Q has saved money. There are just two quick-release connectors with the internal and tap hoses using screw-on versions.

It spins easily enough, but you need to guide the short hose on to the reel.

The bracket looks as if it should mount to a wall, yet there are no screw holes – if you could do this, it would stop the reel moving.
