I normally tend to write reviews on items I like, and recommend, but in this case I can't actually recommend these at all. The reason being, they do not last, being of steel construction, they rust very quicklly. The paint finish is poor, and the steel is not thick enough. They do tend to bend at the least provocation, and although the basic idea is sound, the materials are not good enough.
The design was copied from Firefighting Hosereels, where the hose could be ran out very quickly, the reel swinging out toward the fire, and making it up again was a doddle.. I would like to see a better quality version of these, that really would be something. All fittings are made from corrosion resistant brass, and the reel is supposed to hold some eighty feet of hose!
The Company itself. Rehau make many things in plastic, sometimes incorporating stell and other materials. They do have a website, take a look for yourself:- http://www.rehau.com
The Price:- epect to pay around the forty Pounds mark, although at that price, i would recommend looking elsewhere.
This Company has over 15,000 employees, in locations all over the world. The firm was founded in a town called Rehau during 1948, and has since grown to an international level. They market a wide range of products for the garden . I have done some other reviews on these products, so if you suffer from insomnia, fill your boots as they say..
Employment opportunities. Regarding jobs, they offer work at locations in the UK, and the Republic of Ireland, where they have:- 7 sales offices, three factories, a large distribution warehouse, and an administrative office. At other locations in the world, they have:- 129 sales offices, 41 factories, and a further sixteen offices.
I have nothing against Rehau, they do some good stuff, but not in this case.
