Title: It's Cheap, But It Is Plastic!
Product review: I have a hose reel that is four years old and is also made of plastic. It has broken several times but as it was expensive I have always tried to repair it! Now it has a leak that I can no longer stop, the handle has broken so many times that is no longer repairable, etc. I decided to replace it with the Suncast Garden Hose HangoutIn fact, I bought three of them, so that I can locate shorter hoses strategically and not depend on a movable reel to have a hose conveniently located where needed. All three were a fraction of the price of the hose reel and should last at least as long. Under the Texas sun, I don't expect them to last ten years, but five would be nice!? Installing and removing the hose from the Hangout requires no more effort than the reel.The Hangout has 5 mounting holes and all should be used. (It's plastic and hose is heavy!) Mine are mounted to stone walls and masonry fasteners were required. No fasteners are included.
