Over the past couple of years, an increasing number of people have embraced gardening in small spaces, whether it is a courtyard, terrace garden or a balcony, to create a green retreat out of the space they have available.  

The challenge that many urban gardeners face is finding the most appropriate garden tools that meet the requirements of smaller outdoor spaces, as often gardening equipment can take up storage that those with a small garden do not have. This presents an opportunity for garden centre retailers to promote the latest innovations in lightweight watering systems, which includes the compact Micro Reel from Hozelock. 

The Micro Reel, which has an RRP of £36.99 is ideal for garden centres who want to appeal to both new and urban gardeners, as the product includes a 10m hose and comes with fittings. The Micro Reel weighs a little over 1kg and is an ideal watering solution for urban gardens, balconies, courtyards, and targeted areas of larger gardens.

To offer users flexibility when watering, the Micro Reel features an innovative ‘Click & Go’ design that allows users to simply ‘click’ the connector onto the tap and let the rotating drum unwind the hose whilst walking.

The product has also been designed for versatility and for those gardeners using the Micro Reel for their balcony garden that don’t have an outdoor tap, the hose can be connected to an indoor mixer tap using a Hozelock indoor tap solution such as the Mixer Tap Connector. 

Due to its compact nature, the Micro Reel can easily be stored away in small cupboards, on a shelf or in a shed, without taking up too much room.
