 Broken within one week Sep 03, 2005
By D. A. Uhen
I bought one of these at a local hardware store and it was broken within one week. The mechanism for spooling the hose onto the reel broke off. It is still usable without it but now the hose gets trapped between the reel and the inside wall. Poor design.

We Bought Two - Big Mistake! May 25, 2008
By Banty Lover
We bought two of these hose reels for the front and back of our house. The first one broke after two years of use when the inner hose elbow split down the middle. The second one broke when the outside hose connection snapped. Although replacement parts are available from the manufacturer, these units are not designed for easy disassembly and replacement of parts. You can waste a lot of precious weekend time trying to fix these units. Unfortunately, I now have two hunks of plastic that seemed destined for the landfill. What a shame.

 Works Well But Did Not Last Jul 05, 2006
By Randolph J. Mayer
Mine leaked after two years at the seal point on the reel. I would not buy another one after examining how this is put together. Best for someone who likes to buy new things every two years or who enjoys ordering parts and making repairs to cheap plastic items.

Nice idea, but workmanship and reliability lacking. Nov 03, 2006
By Roger Knutson

This is a fantastic product to reel in hoses without tangle. However, I have had several parts come apart or not fun ction properly.
The hose fitting popped out, and the handle does not latch.

Good idea- poor quality Jul 19, 2009
By Susie
We bought one of these and a similar one by Ames. This one broke and the Ames is going on 5 years old with no problems. Unfortunately, the TruTemper Company (Ames) has decided to discontinue the version of their hose reel like this with storage in top. I don't want to waste money on another sub-par Suncast but I really want the storage. I think I'm going to have to go with the 2nd choice of Ames without the storage.
One key annoying thing about Suncast in addition to poor quality: the handle is static and doesn't spin when you wind the hose up. The Ames brand has a handle that spins while you turn it rolling up the hose. This makes it MUCH easier to wind the hose without constantly having to shift your hand position.
