Not cheap with 10 year warranty but you won't find a better one. Also available at Amazon.

I have one of these:

It's convenient and sturdy. My parent have also had one for a few years with no issues.
Only drawback is the hose isn't a huge diameter so you don't get the volume like a large dia hose. Slight difference/nitpicking.
Plenty enough water, though.

I just roll my hoses up on the hanger.

Go to Lowes. They have 4 solid metal options: a metal 2 wheel cart, a metal box (deco to match outdoor furniture), and 2 metal wall mount reels - including one the swivels.
All metal options are more expensive, but in this case - you get what you pay for.
Regardless of what you buy, make sure it has a metal in/out tube (where hose connects to hose storage). 99% of leaks happen due to cross threading of metal on plastic.
