Amazon.com Review
If you're looking for a simple, wall-mounted reel to keep your hose knot-free and off the ground, the Reel Easy is a fine option. It comes preassembled--a big plus--so all you need to do is mount it to the wall with four screws, which are included. Also, the hose guide helps you wind without tangles, and the snap hook holds the hose end when it's not in use. On the downside, we found the construction a little rickety and the turning action a bit stiff. If you're going to be winding and unwinding your hose frequently, you might want a more polished product, but for light use, this product will keep your hose from rusting in the garden or tripping you up in the garage. Limited lifetime warranty.

"Reel crappy" is more like it! July 29, 2007

I bought this today at my local hardware outlet... and three frustrating hours later, returned it... Here are my pro's and con's:
Pros:
* Nice color, blends into any house or garden
* Inexpensive
* Doesn't cause skin irritation, vomiting or hives (ok, that's a stretch, but I couldn't think of a third pro and I wanted three)
Cons:
* Flimsy plastic, cheaply made
* Connector to water supply line is plastic, not brass, and despite much tightening, mine dripped and dripped.
* Does NOT hold a 100 foot 5/8" hose. Not even close.
I'm going to order a metal "professional" model on Amazon that's about 3x the price of this...but reviews are very positive and it looks like it will last. This thing will NOT last.
