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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well made, very comfortable!

I bought these two air hose reels (50ft and 100ft) for extension hoses that kept getting dropped on the garage floor. They were easy to assemble and easy to attach to sheets of plywood which I can carry around or hang from a peg. I also added 3 inch swivel pigtails to the air intake to make it a little easier to assemble. Because I'm old and they're a bit heavy with the hose, I can attach hooks to the plywood to hang them on the wagons when I move them. I used Baltic birch plywood and applied a few coats of varnish to it after taking photos. It's been a few days since I assembled them, but as far as I can remember they're both 3/8 inch tall. It does not matter. I've enjoyed all the shocked reviews from competing products with 1/4" ports. The pressure drop across a short 1/4" fitting is completely negligible compared to 3/8" hose even at high enough flow rates, so it doesn't matter. .

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Minor issues
