“I replaced my classic with the evolve, installed it, came home that afternoon to water all over the front yard. The weak little cover plate cap near the hose connection just blew off and wasted a couple of thousands of litres of water. Hose link were great in getting a replacement sent out right away. Now the replacement unit has a horrible sound when dispensing or retracting hose. It's still working, but based on the noise I'm not sure for how long. I'm careful with my gear and for the price of these things I expect better. The general quality of the plastics, fit and finish seem a step behind the classic too, too much cost cutting.”

“Best hose we've ever used, it's not heavy, retract easily and it doesn't tangle like other hoses. I'm extremely happy I chose this Aussie made hose, because the first one had a tiny leak and the company promptly sent a replacement without waiting for the first one to be returned at their expense. Thank you HOSELINK for the great service!”
“My third Hoselink reel and undoubtedly the best in all ways.i had a small issue/problem with the reel and it was rectified immediately. Outstanding customer service.”
“I have bought several retractable hose reels from hoselink over several years and decided to purchase one of their new evolve models. Disappointed that it leaked from the outset. I was directed to a YouTube clip as to the actions I needed to take to fix the leak. (Disassemble the fitting, cut the hose squarely and rejoin).
I would have expected a new hose to be leak free out of the box”

“So I purchased 2 x evolve hose reels however they both had water leaks coming from the bottom of the casing due to a design fault with the fluid connectors. I have been dealing with Charlotte from customer support and I must say she has provided me with exceptional customer service regarding the issues I had. I would definitely recommend this company just for the excellent after sales support and service. Charlotte is definitely an asset to Hoselink.”
“After trying other types of retractable hose reels I ‘finally’ purchased the Evolve Retractable Hose reel.
It’s a solidly constructed hose reel with a very positive but dampened retraction system.
I am impressed that the hose lays true when retracted which has been a problem with other systems I’ve previously purchased.
The hose itself is top quality and does not kink. A most annoying problem with other hoses and the positive method of connecting the spray nozzle etc is excellent.
I’m super happy with my Evolve unit.”
“I was always hesitant to buy retractable hose reels because I’ve seen too many not working well or need replacement after a few short years. Hoselink waa recommend by a friend and I’m very happy with it great quality. I’m confident it will last quite a long while.”
