Rapid Reel 150-Foot Two-Wheel Cart Hose Reel #GH164-CT Review

Rapid Reel 150-Foot Two-Wheel Cart Hose Reel #GH164-CTThis was my 2nd Rapid Reel.I had ordered this expecting it to be the same as my old one but it was a newer model.I was somewhat disapointed that this newer model was $30 more than the older one and when it arrived seemed more cheaply made.The new one is Aluminum versus steel in the older model.It also required a lot more assembly.In some ways it's better than the old model (lighter, aluminum won't rust) but at the same time the handle seems more rickety because it's not a single piece like the old model and tends to flex where the two pieces connect.The short hose that connects to the reel also seems like a generic 5/8" inch when the older model came with a 3/4" Goodyear hose.All and all it's a solid hose reel and way better than anything plastic, but I think I would have been happier with another one of the older models at $99 instead of this newer model at $129.
