Piece of junk! Jan 15, 2008

Lasted about 4 weeks. Full of holes after that. Only used it about 4 times. Junk! Don't waste your money, get a real hose.

It's not a fire hose. May 23, 2010
By TrawlerCat It's not a fire hose or even a decent hose, for that matter. I got this to use when we visit marinas on our boat. Connecting and dragging around 50' hoses to the marina hose bibs is a real pain. The hoses take up a lot of room in the lazzarette and always seem to catch on something when you take them out. I thought this compact hose with a reel would answer my concerns. Wrong! Although the hose looks like a fire hose it doesn't have the strength or durability of one. It must be completely removed from the reel and the hose must be straight before applying any water pressure. It can't have any kinks or bends. After using just a few times, it started to develop leaks and cracks. It just isn't up to robust use. The reel is more durable than the hose. I dumped the reel and now use the hose as an extension behind some bushes in the yard where the leaking doesn't matter. My search for a great hose for the boat will continue.

Great product but handle with care Sep 25, 2009
By J. Miller Can't beat the compactness and light weight but this hose must be handled with care to prevent puncture damage.
Only good for a few uses Jul 14, 2011
By M. Knutson Waste of money. Hoped it would be good quality given the high price tag compared to standard garden hoses. I bought one of these at a local hardware store about a year ago. It's about the same amount of trouble to setup as a normal hose. You must uncoil and remove completely from reel to use. Worked well enough the first few uses. But when I brought it out to use the next summer it leaked so badly that no water even made it to the end of the hose. I always handled the hose carefully, it just doesn't hold up.
Leaky hose Feb 02, 2011
By Jay Great product concept but it leaked right out of the box. I would not advise the purchase of this product as you will be disappointed.
