Customer Reviews for VEVOR Wall Mounted Garden Hose Reel, Holds 61m 5/8-inch Manual Water Hose Winder, Heavy-Duty Steel, Outdoor Reel with Brass Fitting & 5ft Leader Hose, Space Saving, for Yard Lawn Garage

This hose reel is a lot better than I expected. It's steel, the welds are nice, everything fits and works as it should. Only downside is that the reel is pretty small in diameter, and so cheap hoses in cold weather aren't going to work very well. I'm using it with one of those hoses that lays flat, like a fire hose, and it works just fine.

It was delivered as described. I feel like it is small but otherwise it was a good purchase

Good quality construction, solid build, works well. Only complaint is the hose connection to the reel is at right angle to the reel causing the hose to kink. I added a right angle coupling to allow hose to lay naturally on the reel and prevent kinking.

Hose reel is of decent quality, and works as should. Compression anchor sleeves are very thin and does little to spread and expand for a tight fit. You will need to drill a very tight tolerance hole for anchor to grab and drilling a precise hole into masonry is near impossible to align. Better off using your own SS screws and plastic wedge anchors. Time will tell how it holds up to wear.

Item required other fixings to make it work which are not supplied or suggested in instructions.

Doesn't hold 125 foot of 5/8 hose without jamming up at the last 10 feet or so. The brass connector loosens up on the hose side when reeling in the hose causing a leak.

I have looked for the perfect wall mount hose reel for several years & thought this was it...brass fittings,stainless steel, looks robust & solid...what could be wrong after buying new ones every couple of years? Hours of fiddling, back and forth for nearly every tool I could think of to get it done . Poorly crimped hose fittings that would not turn, wall anchors specifications smaller than stated drill holes...then there is what other reviewers mentioned...the hose hookup inside that just needs a 90 degree adapter included but instead you need to "gerry rig" some way of it not totally kinking your hose off and you throwing a fit. This COULD HAVE BEEN about the best wall reel you could buy but instead it is one of the most frustrating purchases I've made in a long LONG time.

Missing parts. One screw did not have thread.

Way too small to fit anywhere near 200ft of hose.

The rotational design is pretty flawed - rather than all components rotating on a single axis, several pieces connect together to form the axis which creates multiple points that can buckle or bend under the weight of the hose as the reel rotates. They way in which the hose connects to the reel is faulty and causes a pinch in the hose since the connection point is outside the reel. also the connection point for your hose is very tight and difficult to get a good seal without leaking. The hole pattern is pretty bad too, as a couple of the holes site behind other components of the reel making it difficult or impossible to align the anchor and/or tool to drive the anchor. i had to get some different anchors in order to make it work. This also says it fits a 125ft of 5/8" hose - however my hose is 100ft and if barely fits (even when all water is drained out)
