| This product works very well. It rewinds quickly and easily. Very little effort required. The box is a bit big. |
A back saver if there ever was one!

| Reviewer: Karen Wagner, Brooklyn, NY |
I was looking for a reel that would be easier to wind up. I couldn't have been more pleased - it was the #1 purchase / investment I made all year! I have a 75' hose that can be heavy to reel in. Especially with my older reel that didn't have the wind-up guide. (NOTE: always turn off the water and drain the hose first so that it's not so heavy. Live and learn.) The materials are relatively light weight plastic, but I haven't had any problems because I don't have to struggle getting the hose in (or out) - which is a back killer. Sometimes I have to open the thing up to adjust the guide if it stops winding. If you tried to force it at this stage, I think it would break. I'm careful to stop and open the thing up when that happens. I like the storage tray. It's convenient for holding my fertilizer bottle, some soap and a scrub brush.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, I'm not killing my back everytime I reel the hose in! A great investment - especially if you have a bad back! |
Good

| This came almost over night and quickly. The only porblem was there were no washers with it for the hose hook ups and the directions weren't very good. Product is very nice looking and durable. |
Not worth $80

Suncast SSB200B is made from relatively lightweight plastic. For $80 I expected heavy built stuff. If it is not secured to the ground it will tip over when the hose is being pulled out and anything in the storage bin will topple out. My biggest complaint would be that the handle you use to reel up feels like it's ready to snap when you're reeling in a heavy hose. I only have about 100' of hose on it and I have to go pick up all the hose and carry it to the front of the box then I can reel it up.
My next complaint is as another reviewer mentioned, the arm the handle is connected to is too short making it take an extra long time to reel all the hose up. I can only imagine how tired my arm would get with a longer hose. I suspect this was part of the design to keep the flimsy plastic from breaking under the strain. With that said mine hasn't broken yet but only because I've been careful with it. The connections on it are still leak free and the storage box is a handy idea when the whole thing doesn't tip over. I wish I'd seen what I was buying beforehand, I would have spent more money for better quality and function. I don't recommend this product. |
Should have shopped off line-

| Paid way too much for a plastic box with a plastic reel inside. Over paid about $30.00 from Amazon and then really feel ripped off by how chintzy it looks. Waiting for housing gestapo to tell me it can't be in front. |
