54 Inch Wrought Iron Garden Hose Holder - Heavy Duty Rustproof Outdoor Lawn Hose Reel Stand for Yard, Patio, and Garden Watering Accessories

I bought this to hold a 50ft. 5/8" rubber garden hose. My main shopping criteria were to find something US-made (this is from NY state) that was attractive, and to avoid anything that looked over-engineered. Basic wrought iron appealed to me because, while I am not interested in rustic/"farmhouse" decor, it would fit the character of my house better than the ornate faux-Victorian wrought iron hose stands that are also on the market. It is a nice match if your house has any early-/mid-20th century wrought iron or aluminum, as my house does.The hose holder has a reassuring heft and the twist gives it a nice extra aesthetic touch, though I understand from their website that newer ones are straight. It looks attractive without screaming out for your attention, and from a functional standpoint it hasn't developed a lean or wiggled out of the ground under the weight of my hose. I haven't owned it long enough to see how it will hold up through multiple seasons but the finish didn't have any obvious rust spots or other flaws out of the box. All in all, I am very pleased with it so far.
