Road Test: Reindeer Cobra Hose Holder
No, it’s a $600 hose-hanger for fashionistas.
Is that a hunting trophy? A coat rack? You’ll never guess. It’s the coolest garden hose hanger you’ve ever seen – shaped as reindeer antlers and covered with snakeskin print. Cobra, if you’re wondering.
Is the snakeskin to scare off rabbits and possums? Probably not, but it’s very on-trend. Garden Glory, a Swedish firm dedicated to luxury garden accessories, also has antler-shaped hose holders in leopard-print or gold, and a range shaped like an eagle’s claw.
Expensive, presumably? Of course. Otherwise everyone would have one. This one costs $599 – and that doesn’t include the hose. It’s designed and made in Sweden and comes with a five-year warranty.
Do I need one? If you’re a fashionista, it’ll look great on your Insta feed. Hoses and nozzles come in mix-and-match colours like white, gold, pink and purple. Go wild.
