Customer Review: Not impressed with the design
My sister bought this one for me and I should have made her get her money back. If I knew she spent this much I would have insisted! I hate plastic hose carts of any type. Plastic may not rust but it does not hold up well in heavy use. The hose that hooks to the faucet is cheap and kinks up. The wheels are pneumatic, they dont hold air sometimes and worse, the axles are way too close together which makes it unstable to roll on uneven ground. The big tray is nice, I would want that on any hose reel, but on the bottom with the reel on top. The tray is helpfull for holding sprinklers and nozzles and gardening gear. This one could be used for potting plants since it is easy to clean, the tray has lots of holes to drain water. Since the hose is under the tray you have to bend down further to crank it and it is harder to handle the hose because the reel is so enclosed by the unit.
Customer Review: HORRIBLE
I bought one of these carts from Costco in early summer 2005. By early summer 2007, I was shopping for a replacement because the Suncast model was no longer useful. I was using it to hold 200' of hose, so you'd think it would hold up. It didn't. The core of the thing may be metal, but the hinges that keep it elevated are plastic. Once those go, all you're left with is a cart. Don't buy this.

Teknor Apex #SS105 Garden Hose Stake
Customer Review: Garden Hose Stakes
Very satisfied with this product, in that it provides the stability I need to keep my soaker hoses in place. High quality and well built.
Customer Review: OK but not great for pots
These are a good idea and OK for use in the ground, but don't seem to have quite enough depth to hold a hose firmly in pots -you will need to use one in every container.

EPDM Rubber Garden / Contractor's Water Hose, 5/8" x 100'
Customer Review: Excellent Quality Product
This hose is made in the USA with the highest quality materials rubber and brass. It is worth the price. I need to use the hose just about every day and never a problem. In the past I have used cheeper hoses from the home centers that always kinked and more of a problem than what they are worth.
Customer Review: delivered defective
The fitting leaked on the reinforced end, on the hose side. We purchased this hose for our business since common garden hoses do not survive the heavy use. A water pressure of around 150psi and a temperature 160F is what we expose it to. This product looked great in the description and prior to installation. I cannot comment on the performance as ours was defective and could not be used. It could be that such defects are very rare, or it could be that it is a design or manufacturing flaw that may or may not appear immediately. If any others have experience with this hose, please comment. PRI Industries that sold us the defective hose offered to have it picked up so they can send it to the manufacturer for warranty inspection. Unfortunately we cannot wait for this procedure as it is likely to take about a month or so. We ordered another hose from Grainger for about $16.00 more, and to make up for lost time we will pick it up ourselves. We will attempt to obtain a credit since a replacement will result in our purchasing two hoses when we only need one.

Suncast 50-Foot Capacity Garden Hose Reel Pot Taupe #HRP60
Customer Review: Inexpensive but OK for occasional use
This is not a heavy-duty hose reel, and I wouldn't recommend it for everyday use or harsh environments. It is made of very lightweight plastic, so you need to put your foot on it when you unreel the hose if you want it to stay put. If you grab the hose and start walking, the reel will want to come with you until the length of connecting hose runs out of room. I wouldn't want to put too much stress on that short length of hose that connects the faucet to the reel -- all of the connections are plastic. Given the price, it works fine for infrequent usage. I haven't owned it long enough to comment on its long-term durability, but so far it is a nice alternative to having an exposed hose lying on my small patio. I live in a moderate climate, so I don't know how it will hold up in extreme cold, heat, or direct sunlight.
Customer Review: Functional yet attractive
I was looking for a hose reel/container for my front yard, one that would conceal the hose yet not take up a huge spot in my garden or be an eyesore. This reel pot did both - looks nice, is small, and reels in hose well. I would recommend holding the pot as you reel in as it is lightweight and tends to tip if you are reeling in a large amount of hose.

Rapid Reel Wall Mount Garden Hose Reel Model #1041-GH (NEW 2009)
Customer Review: Great product but I'm stunned at the price hike.
I bought one last year and have been pleased with it. I want to get another one to replace a plastic piece of junk but boy is has it gotten expensive now.
Customer Review: Support competent businesses, even if the current administration won't.
How many times in your life have you bought cheap junk, knowing it was a mistake, but wanting to save a little money? I've done it plenty of times... I'll probably do it again. I did not, however, do it when I bought this hose reel. I bought a Rapid Reel, and I got a *Really Really Good Piece of Equipment*, and could not be happier. It's attached in parallel mode to the side of my deck, and now watering the plants and putting the hose away is a breeze. I ordered it directly from the manufacturer, who even gave me free shipping when I asked if there were any coupons or discounts they could send my way. When you get down to it, commerce is the primary vehicle by which we interact with other people. Our choices affect how humanity organizes itself. I don't shop at grocery stores that play horrible music, I don't buy PCs that get viruses and spyware (Apple FTW), and I try not to buy plastic junk that can only be sold to those who don't know better. The number one reason to buy this product is because it's really well made and will last a lifetime. The second reason is to support real human beings who make real tools that really work well. Buy it.

Plastair SpringHose Deluxe PUW825B94H-AMZ 25-Foot 1/2-Inch Polyurethane Coil Garden Hose - Green
I've only had this hose for a few months, but I am very happy with it so far. It is replacing a traditional water hose, which was always a pain to take out, use, then stow away again. All of these hassles have now been completely eliminated. The Plastair hose straightens out very easily and, as it is designed to do, coils back without any problems. It's very lightweight to boot. Unlike coiled hoses that you find in Target or Walmart, however, the Plastair is a bit thicker and, despite its light weight, does seem a bit more durable--although, I cannot say for sure how durable the hose will be since I've had for such a short time. I should emphasize that I do not use the hose a lot. I got the coiled type assuming that it was best for light duty watering/gardening. If I needed a heavy use hose, I might have gotten something else. One more thing: the 25 foot hose is really only useful for very small areas. My garden is quite small and it's the perfect size. But, if I had a larger garden, then I would definitely go with the 50-foot or even 75-foot version. (The same goes for using the hose to wash a care--25-feet is too short.)

Yard Butler Wall Mount Swivel Garden Hose Reel #SRWM-180
Customer Review: It's better than anything else I've found. . .
but that doesn't mean it doesn't have problems. It has a *really* loud squeal when you unwind or rewind hose. Because the pivot has no lock, it wants to flop around when you're winding. And there's no hose guide, so if your hose isn't lined up with reel when you're rewinding, it's not gonna want to wind onto reel. But at least it's not plastic!

Plastair SpringHose Deluxe PUW875B94H-AMZ 75-Foot 1/2-Inch Polyurethane Coil Garden Hose - Green
Rally like this hose. It is rather stiff when first used, but loosens up after some use. It tucks behind my shrubs so is invisible from the street.
Customer Review: retractable water hose
This sounds like a smart idea, but this is hard to handle, will not lay flat for lawn watering, can only be used to hand watering but is quite heavy and hard to manage. I ordered 2 hoses, one for me & one for my mother-in-law. I tried the hose first and after seeing the problems I had with the hose never gave it to my mother-in-law. I will be returning the unused hose asap.

L R Nelson 50325 Garden Hose Quick Connector Set
Customer Review: Not very durable
We bought several of these last year after I got tired of the brass ones being a pain to take apart. Most are working ok but some of the female connectors have cracked after very little use. They are not leaking yet but I expect it any day. They were brought into a warm basement during the winter so there was n freezing involved.
