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.
