Yard ButlerSRWM-180 Wall-Mounted Hose Reel

Super easy to install and works as advertised - this is to replace the same exact model I bought 12 years ago and it just finally failed due to rust so definitely a solid product.

I really like this so far , no leaks . built like a tank it should last for years . it is a bit pricey but you get what you pay for .

No mention on the page that the connections are American thread, NPT which is different to UK BSP, you will need to but convertors

Expensive, but man, I've been hunting for a good hose reel (and good hose equipment in general - everything seems to leak) for a while. Works great. No leaks, super solid.

Update: 1/12/2015 at bottom.I received my Yard Butler hose real yesterday and was very pleased with the heft of the unit. Very heavy gauge steel throughout, particularly the mounting bracket.The bracket holes are spaced 16 inches apart, which is the standard width of studs. I'm fortunate that my garage is not dry-walled, so the studs are exposed, making it easy for me to ensure I was getting it right from the clapboard side. The screws for the mounting bracket are lag screws, so make sure you have a socket wrench set handy. I suppose you could use pliers, but that would take a long time.The reel itself is well designed with a thick center column, a hose receptor and a wooden attachable handle. If I would change anything, I would make the attachable wood handle about an inch longer.The mounting bracket has a male peg onto which a female counterpart on the hose reel sets. No screws needed, just the weight of the reel is sufficient.It comes with about a four foot green hose which connects to your hose faucet and then to a stationary receptor on the reel, which then feeds to your main hose that is screwed into the receptor within the spinning part of the reel. One note - I kept getting leaks from the stationary hose receptor despite the connection being perfect. I checked the box and found a rubber washer that had come loose during shipping. I installed it, and had a water tight seal.I love the ability to articulate the reel, which gave me the flexibility to install it on a wall facing a direction that wouldn't have worked with a standard reel.My 75 foot 5/8" hose fits on with no problem.I'm very happy with the purchase and, if necessary, will update this review after more use of it.-------------------1/12/2015. So, I've used the hose reel a full Spring/Summer/Fall/Early Winter and I'm continuing to be impressed with its quality and ease of use. It's still securely fastened to my wall, despite lots of tugging and swinging, and it's rust-free. Truly, I would have spent triple the money if I knew I'd like the reel as much as I do.
