I was getting tired of having 250' of hose on the lawn.
By K. Wolter
I received my order in record time and just finished assembling this hose reel. It matched the picture to a tee. Our previous hose reel was not of the same quality as this one, even though it cost more. The center section of our old reel had been crushed when the hose was wound on to it with no pressure and then pressurized. The center section of this reel is of substantially heavier gauge and I doubt it will be crushed. All of the hose fittings are of machined brass and that includes the swivel section. The swivel even has a C-clip so that it can be taken apart and the O-ring seals inside replaced when the time comes. These fittings were made of steel on our old hose reel and rusted badly over time. Replacing the seals on the old reel was not possible and it was starting to leak badly. I give lots of brownie points for all of the brass fittings and heavy duty welded construction of this reel! I wound about 250 ft of 3/4" OD hose onto the reel and that just about filled it up. I would consider 300 ft to be a little on the optimistic side. Assembly went well and the whole units feels solid and like it will last. It rolls nicely on the large ball bearing wheel, though I could do without having four more tires to keep inflated. I think a set of semi-pneumatic wheels would have served just as well. I feel that for the price, this is a great buy!

Almost a Great Hose Reel
By Travis
The components are all strong and it appears they will last well. I have not had it long enough (3 weeks) to see if it will rust yet. It holds a ton of hose and is easy to move around. Rolling hose up is a breeze and is much easier than all the lesser hose carts I have owned.The O-ring in the rotating part that connects to the water supply line apparently came out of place and sprayed water all over the place until I took it apart and reseated it. It still leaks a bit at that connection. I suspect that the machine tolerances on that part are just sloppy. I intend to replace both the O-rings there will slightly thicker ones and use some silicone grease on them to stop the remaining small leak.They have changed the design at some point and now have a solid axel that goes all the way across between the rear tires. Putting on the front tires is a bit of a pain and is poorly engineered. A solid axel on the front would be a welcome improvement, but it seems to work fine as it is.All in all I am pretty happy with it. I have not found a better one.

Worked well for a little while
By J. LaTorella
I bought this for my husband for Christmas a few years ago. We were looking for an easier way to have access to our garden hose when and where we needed it.We were both very excited. It was much easier to cart our hose around the house depending on the task we wanted to do. It attaching and detatching the hose to the water was not as easy as I would have hoped - you have to disconnect from the water supply in order to 'reel' in the hose or the end gets all twisted up.The unit began to rust after only a short period of time; we have no space to keep the unit in the garage, so it stays outside. It is now all rusted out and the wheels no longer hold any air. We're going to have to throw it in the garbage.Seems like a lot of money for something we couldn't keep for too very long.
