Retractable Garden Hose Reel-5/8in-90ft

Each setup and works great. Fire Dept type spray nozzle appears to have been improved since I purchased my last hose/nozzle. The new once is very easy to use. The old ones I never used. Took them off right away and used an old nozzle. Happy with my purchase

Overall I like the hose reel. The nozzle operates smoothly. A 6’ connecting hose was supplied, but I knew I needed an 8’ hose which I already had. I didn’t know you need a female x female hose. In using the hose coming off the side of the reel, any rubber hose is going to hang down and possibly kink when not in use especially in warmer weather. To solve this I put a 90 hose fitting on the reel and added a female x female hose fitting. I was hoping the bracket would mount to a 4” x 4” post which it does not. I mounted the reel on a wall but I lost some flexibility in using the reel side to side due to where I had to mount it. I like how when the weather gets colder I can drain the hose and remove the reel and store it in the shed.

The 90' Giraffe Retractable Hose Reel exceeds my expectations. It was well-packaged, easy to install, looks great and most importantly of all, works like a champ!
