Which holds more hose, the 840 or the 708?

The Model 840 holds 250 ft of 5/8 in hose. The Model 708 holds 125 ft. If your run is longer than 125 ft, the 840 is the one.

Can I move the Model 840 around the yard?

Yes. It is a cart with four PU never-flat tires, so you can roll it to the spigot or around the garden. The 708 is wall-mounted and stays where you install it.

Does the 708 come with mounting hardware?

No. It arrives fully assembled, but mounting hardware is not included, so you supply the fasteners for your wall. Check your wall type before buying.

Is the 708 worth it over the 840?

It costs less at $110.44 versus $120.89 at Amazon as of November 4, 2026, and it keeps the hose off the ground with a tool shelf. Pick it if 125 ft is enough and you have a wall to mount it on.

Which lasts longer outdoors?

Both use powder-coated steel and are sold as weather resistant. The 840 adds a brass swivel and a published 150 psi rating; the 708 adds UV resistance and eight locking positions. Neither maker publishes a warranty length here, so wall exposure and hose care matter more than the model.

Will the 708 fit a 100 ft hose?

Yes, it is rated for 125 ft of 5/8 in hose. Reviewers warn the connection point can hit the wall or shelf and cut into usable length, so a 100 ft hose is a safer fit than one right at the limit.
