Good if you're fed up with bad quality

I took the plunge and bought this expensive mother-of-all-hose-reels because I was tired of going through one or two cheap quality Ames hose reels each year. This has a very sturdy all-steel construction. The connector pieces (which are almost always the parts that break/leak in a cheap hose reel) are solid brass. This comes with a 10 year warranty against breakage or leakage, and I'm going to hold them to it.^M

One the (slight) downside, it comes completely unassembled. For an $80 hose reel, I think I'd like it to be almost fully assembled. It wouldn't be any more difficult to package or ship if it were assembled. The box says assembly takes 10 minutes. It took me more like 30, and I'm relatively mechanically inclined. My box was also missing the pieces necessary to mount it on a brick wall.^M

When all was done, however, I was very happy with the way that the thing works and looks. I will update my review 10 years from now to let you know if it has leaked. It better not!
