Had it for about a year. Use it a lot. Not one single time has the hose retracted all the way in first time. Once you get to the last 5′ or so it takes FOREVER pulling the hose out and letting it inch back in to get it to retract all the way. I regret buying it.
It looks nice and keeps the hose out of the floor. It retracts the hose as it should.
This is a great addition to my garage! I have had for several months now and it works great!
Upgraded from an older 25′ reel to this , hose stays flexible at any temperature, easy install , the retraction can be a bit harsh but is easily controllable. Overall great product!
Been dreaming on not tripping over my air hose for years. Get more use out of your air tools by making it easy to access. Hope it lasts for years.
I had read some of the reviews where buyers had suggested that the hose can become tangled while being retracted but I still went ahead with the purchase, as it is my belief that some issues are created through misuse. However, in practice I have found that great care needs to be taken when retracting the hose as there is no guide within the mechanism to prevent the hose piling up at one end thus jamming the hose against the casing. This reel was more expensive by far than the retractable garden hose, made by a well known company, that I recently bought. This reel has a guide mechanism which slides from side to side while the hose is being retracted to ensure that the hose is evenly distributed along the drum. Why couldn’t the manufacturer of the Goodyear hose do something similar??
Yes, it’s more expensive than harbor freight, but this one is total quality. Very well built. I installed this in my motorhome. The 50′ hose reaches all my wheels.
Very easy to install, find a stud, sink 1 lag Bolt, tighten it up and leave 1/8″ Mark the other hole, sink it, mount on the wall tighten up with an open-end wrench. Very good produc
1) 15 feet longer than most (65 feet vs. 50 feet)
2) the mounting arm swivels nearly 90 degrees side to side – providing the mounting options I needed.
I installed it onto my residential garage horizontal wooden beam support. The mounting bracket on the reel has three holes in it. I wanted to use all three (because I “over do” everything), but I couldn’t easily get a wrench onto the center hole bolt while I was holding the reel up, so I just used the two non-center bolt holes. The two bolts are plenty strong, but I mention this just as an FYI for anyone who wants to do all three. If someone was helping me, I am sure I could have used all three holes. But it was too difficult for me to hold the unit up and bolt in the center hole. If Goodyear is reading this – if you made the swiveling mounting bracket fasteners into the plastic reel housing removable and replaceable, I could have removed the bracket from the plastic reel housing, installed the bracket to my garage’s horizontal wooden beam, then reattached the bracket to the plastic reel housing as a simple one person job. But I would definitely buy this again.
his air hose is great pulls out easily and retracts, my old air hose was a bumbling mess to use almost impossible to roll up…my only complaint is it won’t turn a full 180 degrees I am going to make a 3/4 inch spacer so it will turn a full 180
