Suncast Farmington Smart Tube Weatherproof Outdoor Hideaway Standard Garden Hose Storage Pot Container with Brass Connections, Stoney

Not well made. I didn't even have this 2 weeks and the handle broke. The plastic guide for rolling up the hose does not work so all the hose ends up rolled up uneven.

This hose storage is missing one important feature. There is no way to hold the container still while you are winding the hose so it slips all around. Others that I have had have a piece that you can step on to hold the unit still while reeling in the hose. I purchased another one that costs less at another store. I would not buy this again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hose storage container is very helpful and convenient. It does take some space, but it is well worth it. The farmhouse design makes it look nice and not out of place in front of my house. My water hose is always stored neatly and out of the sight. The storage container is made of strong plastic material that appears to withstand harsh weather conditions. Looks very durable and can hold a large size hose. Very convenient, durable, and good quality.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hides my hoses and keeps everything tucked away nicely. Allows me to keep my hose out all year round without it being a constant eye sore.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m a huge fan of Suncast products. They are well-made (in the USA!) and hold up well to the harsh California sunshine. I also have an outdoor storage box that I use to store my patio furniture covers. This hose storage container is great, made of solid plastic components, requires no assembly other than connecting your garden hose. It includes a short hose to connect to your outdoor spout. Threading the hose onto the holder spool is easy and it makes watering my plants a joy. No longer do I have to coil up my hose to keep it tidy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a great addition to our backyard. It looks aesthetic and blends in with my theme. The attachment of the hose was seamless and I experienced no leaks after connecting. The hose rolls up nice and hasn’t been hard to do. Great piece!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this hose reel to replace my old one, was impressed that it had a hinged lid instead of a removable one. Hose stays nice and straight, easy to unwind and roll up after use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a big product which is needed if you still have a classic hose that does not shrink when the water is turned off. It seemed to travel well. It is a nice color that looks smooth but can also "disappear".

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Suncast Farmington Hideaway Outdoor Garden Hose Storage Pot Container, Stoney is lightweight and easy to install.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've tried the garden hose reel systems in the past with very little success. In our hot Texas sun they tend to fade and get brittle in just one season. I've also had challenges with the handle breaking off the reel system making it a useless box to hide the hose. I'm pleased with the Suncast Hideaway as it not only survived a VERY hot Texas summer, but it still looks new and all the components are working like they did out of the box. The reel feed system works better than others I have tried. I'm able to unroll the hose at various angles without causing the box to slide and shift. Other brands require you pull the hose straight out or the whole box turns. You can get too much angle and it will move, but for most use cases it remained stationary. The only challenge I head at set up was the area to connect the hose to the reel system was a little tight for my hands, but once it was connected that is no longer a problem. I would recommend the product if you're looking to hide AND use your hose.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the hose hideaway. It’s very well made and feels sturdy. The one major downside is the fact it doesn’t guide the hose in. So it can bunch up on one side more. It hasn’t happened too often, but it does happen periodically. It’s much sturdier then my old Suncast that rolls around. That one had the wheels snap off.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that this container is an easy way to keep my garden hose neatly stored, better protected, and out of sight while not in use. After connection, reeling the hose in is relatively easy with the included hand crank on the side of the box and a sliding hose guide on the front. Removing the hose is even easier as you simply grab the end and pull out gently to unwind as much or as little hose is needed for the task. I use a 100 feet length hose and it fits fine on the reel with room for more if I later add an even longer hose. It makes good end to end connection without any water leakage. Box also has a hinged lid that can easily be lifted to see inside or address any coiling issues. I especially like the attractive wood-like pattern design that looks nice in my outdoor space. The container is lightweight but comes with access holes to stake it down if you prefer that it be more sturdy and stationery. Could use a little design improvement as there is a gap on each end between the reel and the inside box walls that can catch the host and prevent further winding. Hose also does not wind evenly onto the real on its own without continual guidance from the user. I do quite a bit of watering throughout my yard on a regular basis so I do like that this is a durable hose storage pot that is built to last and I do not have to leave my hose laying about.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lightweight and easy to install. Stores my hose in a more eye catching way. I love how I can have it tangle free at all times while keeping it hidden and out of sight. It also projects my hise from long exposure to the sun for a longer life. This wraps up my hose with little effort. Great addition to my yard.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a nice option to keep your hose wrap up nice and neat. The pros are: the look is great. Does not leak and is sturdy. The cons: the hose guide is not automatic so you have to use it manually to wrap the hose nice and neat. Not a big deal but something to mention .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a nice little hideaway for your hose. Fits perfectly next to our house and have had friends ask what kind of hose holder it is. It holds our 100 foot flex hose with no issues. I highly recommend this product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The wood grain looks terrific against the back drop of the house. The garden hose box tucks the water hose neatly to avoid the horrible exposed hose. The sliding guide ensures that the hose is stored away evenly and without any effort. Also, the longer leader hose allow me to move box further away from the wall nozzle for more convenience. Very nice!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an amazing hose storage that is very easy to use and very convenient for daily uses.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’re big fans of keeping as picked up/organized as possible, so this helped keep the yard a bit more neat. No more hose coiled up on the side of the house and the container was easy to use without any issue at all. Seems durable, so no complaints there either. If you’re looking for a hose storage container, this absolutely does the job and I’d 10/10 recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hose reel setup is the best one I have ever owned! It holds 175ft of hose with no issues. The construction of the box is nice and sturdy and the lid that closes over the hose is a nice touch and keeps the hose clean. The connection for the hose on the unit is nice because it's not plastic. It's a nice brass piece and when I screwed the hose on to it there was no issues and went on with ease. This is a very well constructed hose reel and I am buying another one for the other side of my home!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Who doesn't want to hide a hose and have an easier way to reel it back in. It is pretty self explanatory as far as installation. It comes with a shirt section of hose to attach to the spigot and the spinner. It is made of durable plastic without looking cheap. The crank and wheel move smoothly, but you do have to guide the hose to help with winding it that way it doesn't just wind up on one side of the spool. It does have a lid too so you can make sure it is winding correctly or to check for bugs/snakes/spiders, etc. It's a fairly attractive hose holder and looks good in the yard or garden.
