As I said in my review I ended up returning the 100 foot hose reel because I felt it was too small and it was awkward. My original hose hideaway was much larger. It broke after about 4 years. It was the handle that broke. I ended up calling the manufacturer who was able to send me a new handle.

I bought mine second hand from someone. I have had it for 2 summers now and it has not broken. They said they had it for 1-2 summers before me.

I have had mine for about a year or maybe more and I am pretty hard on it. It has held up well.

Mine has lasted for about a year and a half now. It all depends on what your using it for and how many times.

1 year. Mine broke at 13 months old. Panasonic knows this happens all the time with this unit, but won't do anything about it.

I have not replaced it yet so no, I can't. However, I will definitely be looking for something more durable than this unit.

I've had mine for 13 years. Still looks good and works good. If it ever breaks, I'm buying another.

I don't remember the last time I replaced one, so I'd guess at least one year.
