Rapid Reel 150 Foot Two Wheel Cart Hose Reel #GH164 CT

Customer Reviews

Easier to assemble then I thought

2008-05-03
Since I really haven't had much time to use the product, this review is based on the ease of assembly. When I first got it I was concerned that it would be too complicated to asemble. It turned out to be real easy. I did 90% of the assembly myself and ask my husband to help with the last part which was loading on the hose. So far so good.

Awesome

This is Not made in China. This is an example of 'you get what you pay for'. Wouldn't it be nice to go back to the days when things lasted, for what seemed like, forever. This will be my last hose reel unless I buy another for the front yard.

solid product, fantastic customer service

Rapid Reel Garden Hose Cart Reel 2 Wheel Cart - GH164-CT
Solid, well made product that is well supported and it appears that it is all "made in the USA".

One of the screws that hold the two drum halves together had a faulty thread. I emailed Rapid Reel's customer service at 10:30 AM on Friday and I had a full three screw/bolt package delivered by 10 AM on Saturday morning.

All three of the reels that I have bought included the Goodyear 5/8" Sureline attachment hose.

I am very satisfied with my purchases.

PS for those that are not happy with the play in the handle of the two wheel cart, you can have Rapid Reel's customer service and they will send you a part to reduce that play.

Excellent product

Excellent;well made; easy to operate. A little expensive but worth the money if you're looking for a quality product.

Finally a hose reel that is durable!

I'd given up on buying hose reels, after several of them broke down after a season or two of use. This one, however, promises to last much longer, with its superior materials and construction. Easy to assemble, too.

Best Hose Reel Cart Ever

2008-07-09
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!

Excellent Hose Reel

This hose reel is extremely well-built. It will probably last a lifetime. Shipping from the company was lighting fast. The instructions were first-rate; a rarity these days.

Lots of Parts

It's a good reel, but DO NOT BUY this product from the manufacturer unless you have a few hours to kill assembling it and enjoy cursing while you juggle screws and nuts. The directions are mediocre, and the amount of assembly required (35 "easy steps") is plain silly.

A pleasure to use.

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.

Excellent Quality Hose Reel

Great product! The reel comes disassembled but with the well discribed instructions goes together in about twenty minutes. I needed a hose reel that could be moved from one end of the house to the other(80feet). Rapid Reel does this without a problem. It is the best hose reel I've used in my fifty plus years
