Review on Buttonsmith Hokusai Retractable Badge Reel With Alligator Clip - 36In Standard Duty Cord, Made In USA by Heather Gonzales

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Flimsy construction, not a lot of product for price

I had a few issues with this product:1. I should have read better, and noticed that it was 1 holder with 5 covers, not 5 whole holders, it was priced higher than the 5 packs, so assumed it was better quality, not less product with less quality2. Clip is very loosely attached and just flops around on the back3. Clip is NOT an alligator clip, it squeezes open, but not long with the multitooth, it's just a squeeze clip4. The 'cable' is thread - a very light thread5. The plastic badge holding flap is attached by a plastic bead, not metal6. Small magnet holds a button face to the reel, spins around, will probably get knocked offIf you just love the designs and are pretty easy on your belongings without a lot of movement, it could be fine.

Pros
  • No complaints here, work as intended
Cons
  • The button design may not be visible enough from a distance
