Flexzilla Open Face Retractable Air Hose Reel, 3/8 in. x 50 ft., Heavy Duty, Lightweight, Hybrid, ZillaGreen - L8611FZ

Have eight of these reels in use in our shop. The function is great - the hoses remain pliable, easy to install and much more durable than the plastic counterparts. I'll continue to buy these units over the lincolns with stiff hoses. Also - I'm pretty sure they are cheaper than other legacy brands - it's a win/win. Have had to repair one hose, and replace another - that was also very simple AFTER I contacted customer support to get the correct part.

Very solid all around. Hose very flexible and rolls out and retracts great. No kicking of hose. Hose plenty long to reach anywhere in my garage. Highly recommend

A good buy for a nice hose and reel. Hose stays very flexible even below 32 degrees. Have other flexzilla hoses, real good ones. This is the first one on a hose reel. Love it@

I really like All the Flexzilla products I've purchased and this hose real is no exception. It's very heavy duty and retracts well.I have only two small complaints:1.) the bolt holes used to mount the unit are very difficult to access. It would be nice if the mounting plate were elongated a few inches to get the holes away from the real itself so a wrench or impact driver could be used;2.). The real is difficult to keep from retracting. It usually takes numerous small pulls in order for it to catch and stop pullin g the hose back in. Once the real does start retracting, look out! I walk the hose back onto the real so it doesn't real in too quickly.

As advertised, a warehouse special. A very nice flexilla 3/8"air hose reel. It will be very useful in the shop.

Very nice air line with a great price

This is a great product, it works very well for me. Some reviewers say that they have trouble getting the hose to latch and not retract when extending the air hose. Just listen for the clicks as you extend the hose. You need to stop pulling out the hose when you hear the clicks, that is when it will latch.I use this air hose reel every day in a professional shop environment. it performs very well for me. As for the mounting issues that some have stated, no it does not come with mounting hardware, they would have no idea what you intend to mount to. One mounting tip I can give you is to trace out the mounting plate sitting on top of a piece of paper to give you a pattern where to drill the holes required for your application. Just take the pattern and tape it in the spot required and drill the required holes.

Great hose, does not lock as reliability as i would like
