Flexible, stable and mobile: these attributes describe this hose reel cart. Traditional hose carts are often criticized for tipping over quickly and its missing stability. The Flexobil counteracts this problem with various factors: Using a hose box that can be swiveled a 360°, the orientation of the hose automatically adapts to the direction from which the hose is pulled. This way, a tipping by pulling the hose sideways can be prevented. Furthermore, the triangular and at the same time organic shape of the frame offers increased stability.

Smooth-running wheels allow the hose trolley to be easily maneuvered in the garden. Additionally, the spacious swivel box offers storage for an up to 20 meter long hose alongside other accessories. The hose is rolled up automatically. A slight pull is sufficient to release the lock, causing the built-in steel spring to pull the hose back into the box and roll it up in a controlled manner through the hose guide.
