Garden Hose Recommendation

DrewLG said:

That was the situation with my old box reel, but I solved it a couple years ago by buying an accessory from Eley: Garden Hose Guide

Hammered the tubular stake into the ground directly in front of the box, so the hose always pulled straight out to the guide on its way to where I actually needed it.

I did lose one of the holders (hammered into the ground) over the winter. I had to take a weeder tool and aerated my lawn until I found it. My next option was to borrow a metal detector from a friend.

Haha. They sell holders separately, so you can move your guides around (or in case you lose one): Eley Guide Stake.

Although if things work at your house the way they work at mine, you'd buy a replacement for the one you lost, select a good spot for it, kneel down, and with the first swing of the hammer the new stake would hit the old lost one.
