Tools and Hardware Reviews of Suncast STA100 Side Tracker 100-Foot Wall-Mount Hose Reel
Customer Review: Plastic is NOT Fantastic!
Summary: 1 Stars
Since I wanted a sleek and inexpensive side mounted garden hose reel, I bought this Suncast model. At first it appeared to work well, but revealed its underlying structural weakness over not much time and sun exposure. Its plastic hub/axle is too thin and weak to hold even 75 feet of 5/8 inch hose. Within 9 months time, I ended up replacing this entire unit twice and even got a free replacement hub from Suncast on attempt #3. There is NO WAY you will be able to fit 100 feet of 5/8 inch hose on this reel because my 75 feet of hose was almost spilling over! The hose connection within the reel developed a fierce squirting leak due to the Boa effect. You should not reel in the hose with the pressure turned off. Otherwise when you turn the pressure back on with the hose reeled in, the hose will act like a Boa and constrict the hose reel apart along with crushing and crimping the hose connection within the reel. While I am sure the Boa effect occurs with other hose reels too, I am convinced that a metal reel/wheel will be needed to last over time. I am not going to waste anymore time trying to make plastic work. You get what you pay for.
Description of Suncast STA100 Side Tracker 100-Foot Wall-Mount Hose Reel
Sidetracker Wall Mount Hose ReelIf you've tripped over your hose one too many times, and you don't have room in your backyard for a freestanding cart, this wall-mount hose reel will get you organized while taking up very little space. It mounts directly to an exterior wall and can be placed at any height. The Easylink system reduces water leakage and holds up to 100 feet of hose easily. You can even remove the reel itself for winter storage. When hand-cranking, you'll have to guide the hose a bit with your free hand, but this reel does a good job of winding it up properly if you take your time. Mounting requires a few wall screws (not included), but the holes are easy to access if you remove the reel first.
