When we decided to sell hose reels we evaluated several brands and decided on Reelcraft hose reels. Why? They are made in the USA, are extremely good quality, and available in many different configurations and price ranges. Parts and service are readily available. The company has been outstanding to work with.
We often get calls from people looking for parts for their Made in China reels. Our standard response is to tell them to "Call China for your parts".
Choose a good American Made reel and you will be happy for years to come, plus you have helped a fellow American stay employed.
