The Ames Reel Easy deck hose reel serves up some surprising new features--some good, some bad, depending on your needs. The reel's sturdy all-poly box provides excellent, long-lasting protection for your hose during the winter months and can also serve as an outdoor tabletop in the summer. In addition, the innovative auto-track hose guide is a miracle invention: as you turn the hand crank, the hose feeds through a guide that moves along a riveted track, providing tangle-free, even winding. On the other hand, some might find the box design limiting: you can't overwind the reel as you can with many other models, so you must be sure to use the right-size hose (the Reel Easy's capacity is supposedly a lengthy 200 feet, but it varies according to hose thickness). Another design limitation is that the box is not transportable once the hose is attached--for that, get one of Reel Easy's wheeled versions. Also, a built-in footrest at the bottom of the box fits only small feet at best (though it does provide some leverage when dispensing the hose), and the hand crank is back-strainingly low (about 1 foot off the ground at its lowest point), so you'll need to prop the box atop something else. In terms of pull-out and put-away convenience, however, this is one of the best reels available to homeowners who use hose frequently.
