EXCELLENT value! Way better than plastic hose reels! October 20, 2009 S. Olson (Clearwater, FL USA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The instructions are pretty much worthless, so it took longer than I expected to assemble it because I didn't do it in the right sequence, and had to disassemble then reassemble. but other than that it's fantastic! Plastic hose reels appear bulky because all the parts are made so thick; this metal one with it's thin diameter tubing is almost invisible. Even so, it's sturdy and not rickety. And the reel is mounted up higher, so you don't have to bend over as much when winding. Plastic ones are not sturdy at all, they tend to "walk" or wobble when you try to drag them behind you because of all the flexing (I used to have to pick up & carry mine). The one I replaced was the cheapest plastic one on sale at Ha**** Fr**** and even it was more expensive than this metal one. Look around at all the metal hose reels on Amazon, to get anything like this of a different brand starts at $90 and goes up from there!! My only criticism is that the manufacturer just throws the parts into the box with no styrofoam, so my reel was slightly bent and the handles had poked holes through side of the box. Also, all the threaded fittings are plastic, and although everything was leak-free on the first try, I would have preferred those parts to be metal for longevity. Oh, and the lead-in hose is TINY, only about 2 feet long, so unless you plan to keep it butted right up against the house under the faucet you'll need to buy a longer one.

The Shanghai Worth Garden hose reel cart is excellent. The instructions could use some improvement but the product itself is great. I would highly recommend it.
so far so good August 6, 2009 2 many books, little time (Peoria, IL USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Powder-coated steel construction EVERYWHERE, except for four plastic connector pieces that seem solid enough. I think it more than compares to similar $70-$100 models from other companies. I haven't had this for very long so I can't say in terms of durability, but being all steel I can't forsee any problems. Way better than plastic reels (we had one for two days that broke), especially since it costs the same. My only problem was the crappy assembly instructions, but it only took a few minutes to figure it out.
good product June 22, 2009 James L. Stuart (north carolina) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
good product, assembly instructions a little lacking, but product rolls easy and you do not have to unwind the entire hose to use it.
garden hose reel November 11, 2009 Armin D. Tuma 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
For the price it is the best buy out there. Some have had a problem with assembly, but if you take time reviewing the instructions with the parts layed out the instructions are sufficient. Took about an hour to assemble. I am considering purchasing a second reel for the other side of the house. The handle problem that some buyers had appears to been corrected at the factory by them pre-bending the handle so it does not rub against the reel support. This unit sure beats the plastic units out there.
