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

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The pictures are very nice, and well done

It's not a very cheap product for what you want to buy ($15), so I'd expect much higher quality. The pictures are very nice, and well done. But there is only one holder (if it breaks, the whole thing needs to be replaced). Moreover, I lost 2 of the 4 covers in about 2 months of usage (I use it every day for the work badge) - the magnets aren't strong enough to keep them in together in some situations like full bus, etc. Won't buy again.

Pros
  • The reel is lightweight and won't weigh down your clothing
Cons
  • The cord may not be resistant to tangling
