Got this reel on clearance. I was skeptical at first, then I installed it on a pole next to the hose bib at the garden.
I like the swivle mount does a good job, so far. Give it a couple of years.
The hose itself is so-so. It is very weak and when it gets hot is very soft. The quick connect on the end is both a bessing and a curse! One had, as long as you can find quick couplers the same size great. Other hand if you can not, changing it out could be a hassle.
The retractor does well, the spring is somewhat weak when the hose is pulled all the way out, so just do not pull it all the way out!.
The nozzle broke after a month of use. The spray handle broke where it mounts on the body. Lucky for me I has many metal ones laying about.
So far I like it. It is conveniant and serviceable to have next to a green house or on a home silcock.
