It works pretty well except at times there is a certain point in the retracting process that it is slow in reeling the hose up. It pulls out easily and still returns on its own gracefully. The hose is evenly distributed around the drum as it retracts....  Read More

It's a good deal for the money i paid, but i'm not so certain if there isn't a better option these days. It definitely is nice to have. It is awesome. The price from amazon. Basically a good value.



Cons

Quality

After all this hose reel is not cheap in price

Packaging/appearance


Update i replaced the 100ft hard plastic hose with a rubber hose

Competitiveness

After being frustrated with this and having one for only a few monthsi began looking for different designs


A 75ft rubber hose might be a snug fit inside the reel

    Have to say im sad after reading these reviews


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Another manufacturer of high quality products moves production to china


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was here on amazon looking to buy another one for a new detached garage but the issues people are having with the imported version have scared me away


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If a manufacturer is going to outsource production and jobs to china at least they can specify high quality components like hoses and then have an incoming qa department in the usa to ensure engineering specifications are met


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The last 3 of hose are troublesome to retract and requires lifting the hose to remove tension and it will then retract


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Other reviews have said the hose is poor quality and broke after a few uses


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I decided to mount it high and above my compressor only a 4 foot hose to connect it
