[–] 1 pt 5mo

Normally I would just buy a hose reel and reel it up. Depends on where/how you are using it and how often you need to use it though. Extra context might help.

Do the reels stand up well? They've always looked gimmicky to me. Context is the spigot is on the south side of the house, and I use the hose for the northwest corner of the yard where the chickens are and also the east side for the vehicles and such. It is a long hose.

I have to wonder about the diminishing pressure you see at the business end of a multi hundred foot hose. Regardless.

Seems to me that a hose reel could work for you. However, I would be looking at a welded steel / aluminum version. For your length - something that you might find at a commercial grower / greenhouse.

You are likely to be disappointed with anything plastic given the amount of hose you have. Reeling it up on a spool is far less frustrating than trying to coil & uncoil it from a flat surface or hook.

I don't own this - but this is what I'm thinking about. https://www.northerntool.com/products/strongway-garden-hose-reel-cart-holds-400ft-of-5-8in-hose-104518
