You finally got it right--my 150 foot back yard hose and 75 foot front yard hose glide in just the way you hope they would. After using my hoses---the "touch and go hose reel" puts a smile on my face as I watch it smoothly draw my hose across the yard--better yet, when my 3 and 5 year old grand daughters are around I get a big smile and a sweet "wow look at that" from them.

Thanks for this spectacular reel that replaced an ordinary one that was very frustrating to use.
