 This is $49 at Menards under the name Yardworks. |

A decent review of this product I wrote on my own domain here: http://intelliq.net/blog/?p=354
Keep in mind this unit is sold under the name Yardworks at Menard's for $49. You cannot touch any metal hose reels with metal fittings at this price anywhere. The wheels are a novelty in my opinion since I dont move the thing.
If you want a quality metal hose reel, get this one without emptying your wallet.

Assembly is too difficult for the average buyer. I had to go to the hardware store to purchase missing bolts and nuts. The angle from the metal tube (part of the reel assy) with male fitting to the hose which is taken up on the reel is insufficient and causes any hose to 'kink'. I fixed this by routing the hose to the outer ring of the reel and tying it with a tie-wrap. This affords the hose a more gradual and kink-free bend. Overall, if I spend $ [...]+(including shipping)I expect a design that works out of the box and I also expect all the parts necessary for assembly to be included in that price. |

| If I had listened to previous reviewers, I may not have bought this item. As they said, many bolts were missing, the instructions are hard to understand and it came with a flat tire. I did not want to bother with trying to return it, so I purchased some carriage bolts at the hardware store and fixed the tire myself. You may want to buy this from a local dealer so you can return it easier! |
Sturdy item.

| One piece of important advice... if it arrives with missing parts just send it back! We ordered this hose reel Oct. 18 and it arrived with parts missing and two months later we are STILL trying to get them. It took a search to find the company on the internet and get a phone number for them (no contact info on the enclosed paperwork). They said they'd send the parts right out. When that box arrived it had the wrong parts and wrong hardware packet. Another call to the company... more incorrect parts. It's now Dec. 16 and we're calling again for more parts (getting only voicemail and a message that they'll return our call on the next business day). We should have simply returned the hose reel in the first place instead of trying to "work with them" and make it right. The instructions are poorly done, not that it's rocket science to put together a hose reel. The parts look sturdy enough... if we ever get this thing put together it might work well. We'll see... |
