Yard ButlerSwivel Hose Reel Garden Hose Holder Wall Mount Heavy Duty with 90 Degree Pivot - ISRM-90

This is the best hose reel we’ve gotten! We had been through a few unfortunately. It swivels out which helps with uncurling the hose when needed!

Only reason it's not five star is the connection for the hose sticks out of the center of the reel too far and the hose has to wrap a couple layers around it before it's over it. Otherwise it's a very good design.

I mounted this to a 4x6 post but I had to drill a hole in the center of the mount so that a thru bolt could be used to mount it. The existing holes simply won't accept a large lag bolt. The major fault with the reel is that there is no way to stop the swing when pulling out the hose. The reel is sturdy enough but not the best design.

I bought a Lawn Butler reel years ago and absolutely love it, so I bought a second one for the other side of the house. Unfortunately, they changed the design of the hinge, making it much weaker. On my first use, the whole unit ripped off the wall while reeling the hose because the lag bolts are too short. After installing longer bolts, it’s still near impossible to reel because of the movement between the arm and the hinge. There’s way too much play in the arm, as the hinge part does not sit tight within the arm. I tried to put in two washers to tighten the joint, but there’s still too much play. Unlike my original reel, this new design makes it so you have to reel with one hand while trying to hold the reel steady from moving up and down with the other. I’m unfortunately beyond the return window or else I’d send it back and find another option.

Wanted a product that would make it easy to wind up the garden hose when not in use, and this Yard Butler did the trick, plus I like the name, having my own Yard Butler!! It is fairly easy to install, with 2 holes on the outside edge of the mounting plate. Since this will get a lot of use, pulled on, swival, etc, I also put a 3rd bolt through the center of the mount, which does not affect the swing of the unit. I would recommned installing the 3rd bolt to ensure it is strongly secured

This worked ok for about a year then the female threaded portion where you attach the supply hose started to leak and shortly there after pulled off the reel making it useless without repair. In the year it worked it was acceptable but always felt awkward rolling up the hose. I wouldn't buy again.

The flange that attaches to the hose is too high. It binds the hose and the hose cannot reel correctly.The swing feature is great but has not position stops so it swings arbitrarily and loosely.Still making it work because the overall idea is great, sturdy construction, and the only one of its kind to find.

Very compact "Reel Gardening Hose".Just what I needed to reel a hose in a narrow space in my garage.Sturdy metal material as well.My old reel in the garage was made of plastic and cracked this winter, with the freezing weather we had this year, even if there was no water in the reel.Also price is very fair for this quality reel.

Cheaply made. Can’t hold a heavy duty hose. Not as expected

This thing is great! A bit of assembly required but in doing so it shows you how in case of leaks how and where to replace rubber seals. Reel works great it looks like it will last a long time.Only thing I have to complain about is that they give you bolts to mount to wood post and no concrete anchors , so I had to go out and get a couple tap-cons. Other than that I'd still giver 5 stars!

I spoke with a customer service representative from Amazon and I asked if the product came with a pole and the representative took a few minutes and then said yes. When the product arrived it did not have a pole. I attached the garden hose reel to a firm location, however, after attaching the garden hose and trying to wind it up I noticed right away how cumbersome it is and not user-friendly at all! I will be speaking with my customer I bought this for and will be discussing whether he would like to return the product or not.

Solid unit, a little time to assemble but worked as described.
