Without a doubt, this is the most asked question regarding this model. We recommend reading our quick comparison guide for answers from the experts: 2-Wheel Cart vs. 4-Wheel Wagon Hose Reel.
I'm a tall person. Are there extensions available for the push-pull handles?
Sorry, at this time, we don't offer any extensions for the push-pull handles.
Will it easily tip over?
Our portable wheeled hose reels are not easily tipped over. While the addition of the optional Quad-Wheel Kit does add a bit more stability, the primary factor in the reel tipping over is how tight you set the adjustable cam-lever brake. Also, depending on which configuration you choose, these reels weigh 35 pounds or more and have a 2-foot wide by a 2-foot deep base. The center of gravity of the unit is designed to keep the cart upright.
Is assembly required?
Yes, however, don't let that scare you away. Quick and easy assembly was one of our R&D team's primary objectives when designing the durable ELEY hose reels. We provide an excellent assembly manual with the hose reel as well as a full step-by-step video demonstration of the assembly on this website. Please visit our Assembly Instructions - Four-Wheel Wagon Hose Reel page if you'd like to preview the manual and video.
