I have had one for about 3 months. It's bolted down so it doesn't move. It seems very good value for the money but there is quite a lot of plastic going on. So far no problems and I am hoping it will last cause it is quite smooth and fairly sturdy.

Same here, 3 months and great. Use it with cold only
Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go

great reels as long as you don't over pressure your system - they will crush. So as said before cold only.

I've got a Hannay.

Expensive but worth it.
I've got a Sealy reel (also metal) if you want it?

I have a leak on the inside of the spindle and on the outside of the spindle too i think near where u connect hose from the pump.

However its not the above real am using its a cheap Hoselock one i was just wondering what's peoples reviews on the above as it looks light which i need but good quality that's not going to leave in a week or two.
