Product Description |
| No more fumbling around while storing your garden hose: The Legacy 5/8-inch-by-50-foot retractable reel ensures an even retraction every time. This unique winding system automatically layers it back and forth across the reel for a smooth coil. The Legacy also features an adjustable hose stopper with the ability to select between free run for fast rewind or latching to latch the hose. It is constructed of durable UV-stabilized polypropylene for a long life. You'll find many places to put this portable reel by using the mounting bracket, which can secure it in one of seven positions, or you can rest it on the ground with its flat base; it also has a built-in handle for carrying ease. This reel's 3/4-inch ID swivel reduces flow restrictions and significantly improves performance. |

 Not so Good. |
| Review Date: May 20, 2009 |

| I've owned this product for over a year and it has failed 3 times. The first was an internal leak that occured immediately after hooking it up. This could only be fixed by the Legacy sending me a new one. The second time, the hose burst in the center. They sent a replacement hose. The third time, the hose burst again. I have never had any other hose burst in my house, so I don't think its my water pressure. I will say that the customer service is very good and they have sent out replacement parts. On top of the problems, the mechanism just doesn't work very good. I've had to adjust the tension so it won't rewind leaving about 5-10 ft left with no where for it to go. Even after adjust it, it works better if you leave the hose end open so the water is not in the hose. Of course this then leaves water everywhere as it wind up. I sometime thing it would be easier just wraping a hose around a hanger and be done with it. |
larger is better

| Wanted a quality, dependable retractable garden hose reel with the maximum hose diameter available. The Legacy hose reel has filled the bill. The biggest drawback is the hose length is limited to 50 ft. Checked Legacy's customer service department, which is excellent, and they provided honest answers to my inquiries about this hose reel. Legacy does not recommend replacing the garden hose with anything but their OEM garden hose of same length and diameter since the system (hose and hose reel) was designed to work together. Purchased two more garden hose reels for the rest of my house hose bibbs. Read and follow the instruction manual provided with the product and the product will perform as expected/designed. |

| I have the same reel for an airhose that works great. I dont know if its the bigger line or what, but it doesn't reel in evenly and gets jammed towards the end. Also the hose end leaked right out of the box. |
