Pressure Washer Hose Reel?

What kind of setups do you guys have for your pressure washer hoses?

I'm a home amateur that has a SunJoe SPX3000 with an extension hose which is pointless. I feel like its really only about 10 ft of useable hose because the remaining 25 feet of it is in a tangled mess. Do any of you have a hose reel that you'd recommend? I feel like setup and tear down is a PITA.

Take a look at flexzilla. I haven’t used their pressure washer hose but I’ve heard nothing but good thing about their water and air hoses.

I leave mine plugged into the PW, then just bunch it up on top of everything in my trunk. Too hard to coil it up.

I also have a SunJoeSPX3001, the one with the hose reel attached. A swivel for the hose end will change your life. Makes washing with the hose unreeled a breeze.

Gah, maybe this has been the missing piece of the puzzle the whole time! Perhaps I’ll try this out first before I invest a ton in a hose reel.

Cox reel, kobrajet hose. works fantastic although asthetically maybe not as good as it could be

That is a legit setup. I dig the e92, got a F80 myself.

Good stuff! Do you follow Obsessed Garage? Built the system based on Matt's setup. Haven't gone all-out with it though since we may move soon.

At this point, I don't think having the Kranzle is as important as the accessory setup. Using that reel / hose / gun / wand feels ultra premium and is an absolute joy, even with the entry level Sunjoe.

I’ve watched his stuff since he came out of the bimmerpost forums, but couldn’t really stand him because he reminded me too much of Toby Flenderson from The Office. He does do good work though.

I’ll skim through a lot of his videos and browse through his products every once in awhile.

Ha! I never put that together. You should check out the pressure washer ones. Loads of content that should give you some direction

That setup looks really nice. Did you run into problems with compatibility of the fittings? I'm looking to build a setup like this in the near future.

Some but it wasn't too bad. I basically drew out a map of what I wanted it to look like and where the connections would be. Then just did some research on what each product came with and what adapters I'd need to make the connection
