Tools and Hardware Reviews of Rapid Reel 150-Foot Two-Wheel Cart Hose Reel GH164-CT
Customer Review: made my life easier
Summary: 5 Stars
I was worried before I buy this because of soso reviews. But since I don 't have an option to install a gaden hose reel on the wall, this reel seemed be the only one option I found for a heavier duty free standing hose reel. I have a good year 100ft hose and it works really well with it. I'm not experienced hose reel user, and I used cheap hose plastic reel once in the past and it was so horrible I stopped using hose reel for years. But I got tired of the 100ft hose spreading all over the yard and I kept tripping over it. I'm petite women without much knowlege of outside iquipments stuff, and yes there were many parts to build this reel, but I had no trouble assembling the reel. I feel this reel is so great, may be because I did not have good water hose reel experience in my past. But still, I must give 5 stars just because it made my life so much easier.Customer Review: Tired of buying a new reel every year?
Summary: 5 Stars
OK, so this reel is expensive and has plastic parts. It also has a 10-year warranty and a company that stands behind the product and has spare parts available. I bought this reel to replace a $130 Home Depot reel that failed after two years of use and could not be repaired because HD no longer stocks this Chinese-made reel. The Rapid Reel does require assembly, but the instructions are very good with every step clearly illustrated. Usually when assembling something like this I am running to the garage every two minutes to get another tool, but the Rapid Reel really does take only a Phillips head screw driver to assemble. It also works great - easy unwind and easy rewind. If you use a hose reel every day like I do, you own it to yourself to buy this reel.Customer Review: You get what you pay for, top quality.
Summary: 5 Stars
Easy assembly, quality build, well ballanced and easy to use. This unit is expensive but then again the cheaper brands in comparison are way overpriced. I like the fact that they use tube type tires that are filled with expandable foam. This unit does not leak one drop. There is a slight bit of play between the handle bars and where they are connected to the frame but unless it fails I just don't care. The frame is powder coated just like the frames on my KTM motorcycles and that's quality. I also have a wall mounted Rapid Reel mounted on the south side of my home for two years and it still looks like new. The plastic three point mounted handle looks a little weathered but works like new. I will update if there are any problems.Customer Review: A pleasure to use.
Summary: 5 Stars
The Rapid Reel host cart is so much better than any of the cheaper plastic reels I have used in the past. The host winds and unwinds with ease. The whole feel of the cart is quality.
The cart arrived in many parts. At first glance, I was afraid that it would take hours to assemble. However, the cart went together quickly.
The cart had one bad part which Rapid Reel replaced right away. This is the type of service I expect from a company that sells premium equipment.
Customer Review: Best Hose Reel Cart Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
We were looking for a rolling hose reel cart & everything available in the stores was either plastic or very large (if it was made of metal). This cart is small enough to not be an eyesore, but, large enough to hold 150 feet of hose. The grey powder coated metal finish is also very attractive & durable. The ease of operation could not be better. Until now, watering has been a major hassle. This cart makes using the hose & putting it away a snap!
