Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First off, no it’s not cast. Really? For this price? C’mon. It’s pretty heavy though, and it’s well machined. It doesn’t come with mounting hardware. Omg, you can’t spring for 4 lag screws? How do you people manage to own a home? Now for the most common complaint: leaks. I have had no issues with leaks so far but I believe most of the problems could more than likely be resolved with a .15 cent “o” ring or some Teflon tape. You can also disconnect the hose from the swivel and tighten the inside connector piece. Try reading. Look, it’s not a $200 reel, but it’s also not a $29 Home Cheapo or Wal of China Mart reel. Manage your expectations. I’m very pleased. My only issue is that I have 100 feet of real rubber 5/8” hose and it’s stretching the limits of use. But it does fit. Spray it with a little WD 40 now and then, and if necessary hit it with a coat of Rustoleum. It’s obviously not a “legacy” investment. But every single person who sees it compliments me on it. I’d buy it again in a minute. Thanks for reading
