Truly can’t say enough positive things about this. The quick connect; amazing.. no more unscrewing and twisting the hose. The retractable reel; clean, effective, efficient and effortless. The size; perfect, and if you need it to be further than 6’ from the outlet you can always add a regular hose with the quick connects.Truly amazing value, no notes.

Purchased this for my home. The product assembled quickly and easily. The build quality is very good as well. I had to deduct a star because the product leaks from almost every joint. It leaks water where it hooks to the faucet and on the end that connects to the spool of hose. Not a huge leak but at this price point I expect it to not do that.

High quality and easy to use. So great we bought a 2nd one for the back yard. Neighbors are all asking where we got it. 🩷

High quality product. I had a retractable hose unit in the past that was junk (Not from this manufacturer. It was a different brand.)This unit mounts into the ground so it stays put. My old one rolled on wheels so it would move when trying to retract. This reels up the hose perfectly every time. The mechanism in the old unit would not move side to side smoothly when rewinding. This is made of high quality materials that is sturdy. The other unit was made of cheap flimsy plastic. I used teflon tape when attaching my hose to the quick disconnect to make sure the threads or gasket on my hose would not leak. If I did not, this could be an easy way to blame the disconnects for leaking when it would be the fault of the hose that I used to connect to the unit. (I installed the unit about ten feet away from the hose shut off.). Everything worked perfectly. Not a single leak. The thick solid steel pipe included to twist the unit to drive the stake into the ground worked perfectly and was necessary. The stake that twists into the ground is very large to make sure the unit is secure. It would have been impossible to twist in the stake all the way without it. Ones screwed into the ground it is extremely secure so it does not move when pulling out the house or retracting the hose.

Easy to install. Works great

I was very excited about the fact you can place this in the ground no post concrete needed. That part works well. However you have to have the nozzle on that is if it doesn’t blow right off! Yep my nozzle came right off. This hose uses a very different system than others it’s a click and snap system. YOU HAVE TO USE THE NOZZLE, you can’t have it without. However my nozzle won’t stay on. Retracting is very difficult. I laugh that the description says gentle pull and retracts . NOPE several pulls in all directions, fingers crossed cuss a bit and you might get lucky. I have found this product very frustrating. I am waiting to see if the company stands by their products and offers to repair or replace this hose as it’s no good without the nozzle. Pass this one up at this price you can do better!
