The instant invention combines the features of a sink and a hose reel for user convenience and space savings. The outer periphery of the device is surrounded by an enclosure for aesthetic appearance and internal storage. The sink is provided with a folding faucet and a cover plate which allows the top surface of the device to be utilized as a work table. The lower portion of the cabinet assembly is constructed and arranged to contain a hose storage reel. The reel employs a winding crank mounted near the top of the cabinet assembly and gears extend between the crank and the hose reel to minimize operator stooping when winding a hose about the reel. The reel may be provide with a low entry hose port which allows the hose to be pulled into the enclosure from near the bottom of the device to minimize the possibility of tipping the device during hose retrieval. The device is constructed and arranged for shipment in a disassembled state wherein the components may be snapped together without the need for additional fasteners or connectors. In addition, the combination sink and hose reel are provided with a folding handle assembly for reducing the shipping space required for shipping and storage of fully assembled devices.
