Type of review

This hose reel is quite good, I just wish there were some aspects of it that were built sturdier (and the retraction mechanism is a bit different than I'm used to). This hose reel comes with a quick connect fitting pair, two lag bolts, and some teflon tape.RETRACTION:When you unwind the reel, there are short segments where the locking pawl is engaged, and short segments where it is not engaged (I estimate about 90 degrees of rotation of the internal reel for each engagement/disengagement…

Pros
  • Easy install and is working great
Cons
  • Good for what we need

So far so good a few months in, it gets occasional use and coupled with a 30 gallon compressor. I ordered this to replace a huge open steel commercial 50' reel. We downsized from a large shop to a single car shed and no longer had the space. This enclosed reel is heavy, (comes with lag bolts), but 1/2 the size in diameter, with a 15' longer hose than our commercial one. Granted this is a thinner hybrid hose so it requires less space. We were going to mount it on the exterior corner of the…

Pros
  • Hybrid polymer hose provides excellent flexibility and durability
Cons
  • The hose reel is not compatible with all types of hoses, limiting its usefulness for some customers

Industrial grade 1/4” air hose reel.

This is industrial grade. It’s really nice and very well made. The air hose is a 1/4” which I do prefer 3/8” so I used an adapter to go to the hose on the reel. The air hose is really nice. I have only used this for a couple days but it has been holding up and doing the job. Yes this does include a 1/4” air hose that is already spooled up inside the reel. There has been no kinks or bubbles formed. This is also an easy air hose to repair. If a hole gets in the hose you can just cut the bad piece

Pros
  • Easy to use with a user-friendly locking mechanism
Cons
  • The hose reel can be difficult to disassemble, leading to challenges in cleaning and maintenance

Highly recommended very easy to use easy to install.

Boy howdy. This Hose reel is fantastic tool to have in the shop no more tripping over the hose anymore keeps the floor clear and neatly oh did I mention greatly priced also. Wont brake your pocket book and the durability of this unit is awesome made from a high grade of ABS PLATIC I mounted it on the out side of my shopI highly recommend this hose reel to any and everyone who has a shop of just home garage

Pros
  • Air Tool Parts & Accessories
Cons
  • The hybrid polymer hose can develop cracks and leaks when exposed to extreme temperatures

Great for shop or garage.

I kept my old host laying on the floor circle around the machine. Took up space, got pretty dirty and literally took me 15 minutes to clean up after every use. I've mostly transitioned from air power tools to cordless battery tools but some uses for air are (forgive the pun) in-escapable like inflating tires and blowing parts, filters clean, etc.

Pros
  • REEL SPECS - This Reelworks Hose Reel is crafted of heavy duty impact resistant light weight durable Polypropylene Enclosed Spring Driven Case, a newly designed swivel hose inlet connection protecting against leaks; The 1/4" inch x 65 foot Premium Commercial Flex Hybrid Polymer Hose working pressure is 300PSI / 20BAR with 1/4" inch NPT connections, also includes a 36" inch (0.9m) Lead-in Hose and Adjustable Hose Stopper and Non-Snag Rollers, w/ a 180° Swivel bracket
Cons
  • The hose reel makes a loud, obnoxious noise when retracting, which can be disturbing in quiet environments

Great hose, with extras.

Nice, plastic (the good kind of plastic, not the plastic-y kind of plastic. Polypropylene is a very durable plastic, so it should wear well. Comes with fittings, thankfully. Have had the hose in my garage for a few days so it got nice and cold so I could see how stiff it is (it's about 32f or so right now), and it's really pretty good. Comes with fairly sizeable anchors / lag bolts for the wall. And it comes with, I believe it's 20 METERS of Teflon tape? Guys.seriously. A foot or 2, one of…

Pros
  • quick rewind easy to get it up and using in no time
Cons
  • The hybrid polymer hose is not as durable as advertised, often cracking or leaking after prolonged use

Nice hose reel. in my review

This is a pretty nice hose reel. If I had a choice between this reel and a metal one for the same price, I'd choose the metal, but that's just my personal preference. I wish I had the ability to install a larger inside diameter hose in it, and I probably could, but the hose that connects to the compressor is not changeable, so you're basically stuck with air flow from the 1/4 inch hose. With that said, the hose reel functions perfectly. If you don't need a large volume of air, you really can't…

Pros
  • Perfect
Cons
  • The retractable hose reel is too large and bulky, making it difficult to move around

Wall or ceiling mountable hose reel with built in lead hose

I'm not sure what is going on with some of the reviews for this thing but this is not a piece of medical equipment or an electrical device. This is a standard pneumatic hose reel for an air compressor. I guess you can run water through it but the vast majority of users will use it for a compressor putting out up to 300 psi (normally under 200 psi). It has a 1/4 inch hose which is fine for most residential applications. It's heavy but you mount the bracket on the wall first and then attached the

Pros
  • Durable construction ensures long-lasting use
Cons
  • The hose reel does not come with any accessories or attachments, limiting its versatility

Air hose, my, what a long reach you have!

This ReelWorksAir Hose Reel has been a real convenience to my small 18 X 20 foot shop. With the reel mounted up on the back wall I have no air hose laying on the floor to trip over and a fantastic reach outside where it’s sometimes needed. The ReelWorksAir Hose Reel has been in service for almost two years and there have been zero problems using it. No leaks, no jamming, no failure to retract. What more could one want?There is a little practice required to operate the hose-length retraction…

Pros
  • Helps to prevent hose kinks and tangles for improved longevity
Cons
  • The retractable hose reel is not very mobile, limiting its usefulness in large or outdoor spaces

I have another hose reel that I've used for years, but it bottom feeds - so it has to be mounted pretty high up. The mount/bracket makes it impossible to hang any other way. I've been looking for a top or front feeding reel, so was glad to find this one. First, it's a LOT bigger than I expected. It's the size of an emergency spare tire. But since it's mostly plastic it is not too heavy. I mounted this to my island work area - the compressor is in the bottom and I had 15 feet of hose spooled…

Pros
  • Well made pneumatic air hose reel. Recommend this product.
Cons
  • It requires a lot of effort to wind up the hose, which can be time-consuming and frustrating

Retracts well, but tough to pull

Replaced an older hose reel with this. It’s much larger than I had hoped, but it works well. Knowing when the hose locks is a bit harder than my previous reel, as the clicking sound is much quieter. It’s a bit tough to pull from the reel, but hopefully overtime, it’ll loosen up.It’s well built and so far, works well.

Pros
  • Hose Reels
Cons
  • The hose sometimes kinks, causing water or air flow to stop

Super Strong Recoil

This thing has a super strong recoil probably pull your impact wrench clear across the room at a dangerous rate. I love this thing. It was easy to mount to a stud in the wall and seems like its going to work out great. Its easy to use and not too heavy. The rate of retraction is very, very strong and fast.

Pros
  • Power Tool Parts & Accessories
Cons
  • The retractable mechanism often gets stuck, making it difficult to extend or retract the hose fully

Great reel two weeks of useage

Two weeks in and I’m satisfied. Main purpose for the 65’ length is not wanting to tap the end. I had another name brand and think there’s a possibility that extending to the very end weakened it. I’m happy with the product.

Pros
  • High maximum PSI rating of 300 ensures optimal performance
Cons
  • The hose reel is difficult to use when wearing gloves, leading to safety concerns in some work environments

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good value! on my review.

Wish they had included instructions on taking parts off which you need to do to mount the thing. Wasn’t hard to figure out and works great

Pros
  • Saves time by eliminating the need to manually wind and unwind hoses
Cons
  • The hose reel is more expensive than other options on the market, making it less accessible to budget-conscious buyers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Keeps the hose manageable

I like having a compressor at home to deal with tire issues and for air tools. But the hose can be a mess if you leave it out; and a pain to connect and disconnect if you store it away. This reel gives you the best of both worlds. 65 feet is plenty long for most uses. Recommended

Pros
  • Made with environmentally friendly materials for a more sustainable choice
Cons
  • The hose reel does not work well with all types of fittings, leading to incompatibility issues
