Few reviews on Amazon. All are reviews in exchange for free product. Most of them are pretty meh.

I see a lot of plastic parts in the pictures. In my experience, the plastic connectors are the single biggest point of failure. I see a plastic connector on the lead hose and the nozzle looks to be plastic as well. This suggests internal plastic parts as well. As it is retracts and that nozzle flops around, how long can it really last?
I want this hose reel but too much money.

Amazon version of the Gardenia. Awesome to have an alternative that's much cheaper. Gardenia hose reel is 100% worth it.

This is why you should buy the original, not Amazon's cheapo knockoff.

I've bought a couple similar to these in the past. They work great but as others say the connection point to the sprayer is a little weak and isn't compatible with standard connectors.

In hot Florida sun, this plastic thing wouldn't last longer than 2 summers. Been there and done that.

The best hose reel I ever had is the one I bought 10 years ago and still have. An all metal one that looks like this.

https://www.amazon.com/General-Pump-D30002-Mounting-Bracket/dp/B00INY1V4Y/ref=sr_1_14?dchild=1&keywo... [amazon.com]

Not the same company though as the one that made mine though, so I can't give this one a recommendation, and I'm not at home to see the name on mine.

Remembered the name. Rapid Reel. Turns out I've owned it sine around 2005! I have one in the backyard and front yard and both still work like new. WAY more expensive than this reel though, but worth every penny imo.

Saw one in costco recently. I think the price was 130 in-store.

I buy the Stanly ones from Sams club for $79.99. It has a lifetime warranty. I have bought 3 so far and 1 has failed after 2 years but was too lazy to get warranty exchange so just bought a new one. Regardless I am happy with it.

FYI, the Stanly one is all plastic too and it has held up well, what failed was the mechanical reel mechanism.

I've had 2 of these for 5 years ish with no issues. Short connection hose is crap but otherwise good quality. Metal hose connection inside.
