There's a fixture where the short green feeder-tube connects to the axel that is held togeather by two tiny clips of plastic about as wide as a paperclip. If these peices get stressed (say by tugging on the hose even a little bit) they break and the feeder hose falls out of the reel.The problem is: It's a fragile part, there is no replacement available, there's no way to repair it, and it's only a matter of time before it fails. And that's unforgivable.Save your $35 and spend it on something else.I won't buy another Suncast product the rest of my life.
