They simply fail to recoil the entire hose. At first the recoil is inconsistent, but eventually there’s 10-20 feet of hose that won’t recoil on all four reels 100% of the time. The manufacturer offered some solutions like, “pull it all the way out in an attempt to reset it”, “empty the hose of water and then try and reset it”, and then the one I liked the most was, “don’t try to take it apart and fix it as it is spring loaded and may cause injury if you don’t know how to release the tension on the spring.”. The last email from customer service essentially told me to throw them out. This response inspired me to write this review because they only suggested it upon the last of the four reels was just past the return date.
Bought this for my husband for his june birthday. Set up end of june. Loved it. Went away twice in july and august.. so id say we used it a handful of times between those times. Great product and worked well. Its not sept 9 and it stopped winding up last week. I had it looked at and it appears the springs inside must be snapped or something. You cant open it. It comes premade and wound up. I mean maybe i could but then it probably wont be put back together. Really sucks for the price that it didnt last for years. We didnt do anything to it so maybe i just got a bad one or maybe its not quality. Anyway it was great until it randomly stopped winding.
