Review on Flexzilla Retractable Enclosed Lightweight ZillaGreen by Eric Teshome

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Some discrepancies: Power tool parts and accessories

Spool received and packaged very nicely. Lots of comments about hose retraction. In my block there were no problems. For fittings, note that the unit is shipped with two (2) 1/4 NPT male fittings on each end of the hose. All of my compressor connections are also male, which means I have to get a female adapter for both ends. Not a big deal but I think they should have shipped at least 1 female to female adapter with the unit. Also, to mount the unit, I used a standard drywall screw with a machine washer to mount it on the wall. Good work. The only downside is that removing the bracket requires unscrewing two screws and then removing the plastic pins. Not that it's difficult, but attaching the device to the mount when it's 6ft above your head and you're on a ladder is very difficult. The bracket needs to be redesigned for practical reasons. One final note, the inlet hose is only 3 feet from the unit, although other posts say it's 4-5 feet.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Crumpled
