So will it hold 150 ft of hose well or only 100 ft?

On the company's web site it states the reel will fit up to 150 ft with a 5/8 hose or 100 ft with a 3/4 hose. They also sell an extra capacity kit for $20 which increases the size to 225 ft for 5/8 or 175 ft for 3/4.

Possibly a 1/2 inch hose. Certainly not a 5/8th inch hose. My 75 foot hose pretty much fills the space.

The hose reel will accommodate up to 150' of a 5/8" hose in one continuous length that has an outside diameter of about 3/4". If you are using a heavy 5/8" id rubber hose with an outside diameter of greater than 3/4" od but less than 1"od you can expect the reel to accommodate up to 100'of that hosein one continuous length. Anytime you couple two hoses together the capacity of the hose reel will decrease due to the couplings.

To pump the waste 100' you will need to use something larger than 5/8" water hose. The instructions suggest 1" PVC pipe.

When you put it in the ground, it is only about knee high. But, it holds up to 100' hose.

I would say that it will. I have a 50' 5/8" Tuff Guard hose in it, taking up well less than 1/2 the capacity.

You can hook a 100' hose to the pump, but you cannot pump up hill for the full 100'.

In my opinion 100ft of high quality 3/4" hose is max. It would likely pull 1/2" or 5/8" farther. And as far as I know there is one model.

We put o 50 feet of 5/8 hose. It may hold more. You might check with the manufacturer for the actual capacity.

Go with two 25 footers. If you ruin one end, you've only lost half of the hose.

Yes it will. I run off a pancake with 100 feet of hose and have no problems at all.

You can also get a 100 foot pocket hose that is 3x stronger. I just ordered one from amazon. It cost a bit more.

We are lucky to have very high water pressure in our area, so I had no problem pumping at about 75 feet. I have not tried it at the 100 feet you are asking about. It is a great pump. Far exceeds the other 3 I tried.

yes vic, it can hold the 100 feet of hose quite comfortably. as i'm reeling in the hose, I guide the hose back and forth in order to get an even displacement throughout the reel. george

600 feet is a lot but if there's no head (rise from source) it should work. There are instructions included that show how to install the pump as a pressure booster to a city supply line. The problem you may find is that the pump pulls harder than the supply can provide water and you might collapse the hose on the supply side. If you install the pump at the source and let the pump push it the whole way that might work better. I push water up 6 feet and then push it 150 feet and get 8gpm. I'm on my second pump and the newer models are a little better.

It's only for regular 100 feet hose...the pocket hose can fit a small can in the infomercial?

I am not sure exactly. It holds a 100 foot hose easily. Could probably double that.

Hello Donald, yes you can join two 50 ft hoses together to make a 100 ft hose. Hope this helps.

Hi, I have a 75', I would enter 100' Gilmore in your search and try again. I might suggest 2- 50', these hoses are heavy and then you could choose 100' or 50' depending on where you want water. It would probably cost a little more due to the extra hose fittings, but it could be more managable. I would hunt around on Amazon a little more, I'm sure there is 100', could be they are sold out right now.
