Review on ReelWorks Hand Crank Air Compressor Hose Reel (L201303A) - No Hose Included by William Burnett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

excellent value for money for air tool parts and accessories

Solid 4 star product. Fairly durable - have been using it for a few months now with a 100ft air hose with no problems. Two small things why I deducted 1 star. 1) I would like the arm that bends to have a larger angle to allow more clearance between the coil and itself. If you coil a 100 foot 3/8 hose imperfectly and without overlap, the hose will rub against this lever. I suspect that if you use a hose larger than 3/8th you will run into even more serious clearance issues. 2) The included adapters were practically useless. You'd think there might already be a standard for air hose fittings by now, but it took me a few trips to get what I needed to adapt my existing hose to this reel. The port on the arm is gigantic and needs to be reduced significantly to fit a standard 3/8 air hose. Aside from those two little things, there's more value. You get a good solid steel spool at a really good price.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • poorly thought out
