Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I fail to understand how this product has nearly a 5 star review considering its failure to meet the core requirement. Which is fit a 100' hose. Some reviewers have mentioned that it can't hold 100' but not enough have stressed it. So here goes- THIS WILL NOT HOLD 100' HOSE. I bought 3 of these and 2 Flexzilla Garden Hose, 5/8 in. x 100 ft., Heavy Duty, Lightweight, HFZG5100YW, all in a single order so, I was super excited to see them both arrive at the same time. No more hose left in the yard! My only concern was the container didn't come with a lid and I really wanted a lid so I could keep it outside during the winter months. But only the copper containers came with a lid and some people complained about rusting and I wanted this container to last so I figured I'd go to Lowe's and try to find a lid that would fit. Basically, I'd already made a compromise on this purchase and that's where I made the first mistake. Now, on to the review... First, a 100 foot hose will not fit in this thing. The only way to get it to fit is to wrap the hose inside from start to finish, making sure it hugs the edge all the way. Then it will fit. But this is not NORMAL use. A person can't be expected to stand there and wrap it perfectly every time in order to ensure proper fit. And the Flexzilla hose I purchased met the container specifications exactly. Fail. Second, this thing is so lightweight it falls over when the wind blows. That's an exaggeration but it wouldn't shock me if it happened. The problem is that it's not a design flaw because it's lightweight as advertised but under NORMAL use it tips over with anything less than 80 feet of hose remaining. I can't imagine how a shorter hose would perform. There should be mounting suggestions in the advertisement. Fail. Lastly, there are no drain holes. Good for the mosquitoes bad for me. Fail. So in order to make this purchase work I had to- 1) find a lid at Lowe's 2) drill drain holes in the bottom 3) mount it to a 2x4 which was then screwed into the deck so it wouldn't fall over 4) I couldn't increase the depth/height so the 100' hose would fit therefore, there was nothing I could do to fix this core flaw. 1 star because it caused more headaches than it fixed.
