 Rating:  - Good - at first. Very unhappy nowPurchased the No Crank Hose Reel (model called "Crate") at the local Lowe's in the summer of 2007, along with a suitable length of new hose and for the first year it worked great, performing as advertised. After one year of service, the No Crank Hose Reel ceased pulling the hose back on the reel, and I had to open the top and slowly push the reel to assist in the mechanism rewinding the hose. Most embarrassing as the neighbors observe all goings on in the garden, and I had previously recommended ...

The first time I put it in the rewind mode it almost startled me, what a Hoot. My kids actually argue over who gets to put the hose away, Now that... is a definate recommendation! Rating:  - A perfect solution for managing your hose!I had read about this No Crank Hose system in the Wall Street Journal and it sounded too good to be true. We have a small deck that leads to our garden and when the hose was coiled up, it seemed to take up huge amounts of space. We we tripping over it and it didn't look very attractive, not to mention, it was a pain to coil up everytime we used it. I had seen the No Crank Country 100' system at my local nursery for 270.00!!! and thought that was really unreasonable. Came home did a google search, saw ... Read More Rating: - Looks good, works wellI wanted something that would look good near my front door and be easy to use. This product does both. I've had mine for 3 years and it still works well. A friend has had one for 4 years. My only very minor complaint is that the hose doesn't rewind well at a sharp angle. Am buying one this year (2007) for a Christmas present. Rating:  - overpriced, poor qualityWithin a few weeks of using this, it broke. The gears are plastic and simply cannot stand up to reeling in a 100 ft hose across a flat yard. When rewinding the hose, the plastic teeth sheered off of the gear wheel. I'm sending mine back, not for a replacement, but for a refund. Considering this product commands a premium price, the quality of the product is significantly poor. Browse for similar items by category:
