Tekton Hose Reel

[PCMusicGuy]

I saw the Tekton Hose Reel with Goodyear hose today on woot.

It is normally around this price with the crappy hose, so the inclusion of the Goodyear hose only adds value.

Beat me to it.

Just about to post it up, when I thought I should do a search.

It's a good deal.

Amazon Prime is $130.21.

You mean both the hose and the reel?

Correction:

I am not sure where I saw this and I cannot find it so I think my statement above is wrong.

Are the Goodyear reels Made in the USA too? I remember those showed up on Woot a few months ago for about the same price.

The 46771, 46781, and 46791 all have USA hose, but the reel isn't. I've never noticed this, but I'll make sure it gets fixed.

The reel isn't but the hose is. We have it shipped to our factory.

Despite the temptation, please do NOT use a Tekton Air Hose Reel as a way to store your pet snake during hibernation. Hose only.

lol

Did these go up in price recently? I bought mine at Tractor Supply a couple years ago for $80. 3/8 50ft model.

I love mine, great value for the price!

And for what its worth my Tekton reel is made in China.

Well, I bit the bullet. Been wanting one for a long time to get the hose up and off the floor.

I ordered what I thought was just the hose reel (I have a hose already) from Mills Fleet Farm for $55, but when it was delivered today it was the one with the hose. Then I looked on their website, and they no longer have the Tekton reel any more. What they do have is a MIT reel, which is the same company for $78. http://www.fleetfarm.com/detail/mit-retractable-air-hose-reel-50-ft-hose/0000000003379 It ends up being ~$90 with shipping.

Thanks Bill, I actually might pick up the manual reel for my Flexeel hose. I have a Fleet Farm right down the street.

What brand of hose is on the MIT reel?

...I'm not sure what the hose on the MIT one is. The hose that came with the Tekton reel I got says "Tekton" on it, and the the box says "made in china." But some people have said that the hose is USA, I'm not sure. The hose that mine came with seems nice, but I'll have to see once I've used it a while. It doesn't matter to me since I was just after the reel when I bought it (I have a 50ft Goodyear hose I was going to use on it).


Jonny, if you go to Fleet Farm, take a look at the hose on the MIT reel and report back. Probably a few people that wold be interested

I'll head there this afternoon

It's still the Tekton brand, made by MIT. It does say China on the box, but without opening it up I can't see what the hose says. They weren't selling any rubber Tekton hoses, but their hybrid hose is made in the USA.

Also saw this one there...
