Customer Reviews for VEVOR Retractable Air Hose Reel 3/8 IN x 50 FT Hybrid Air Hose Max 300 PSI

I installed this hose reel in place of a Flexzilla reel that I had installed a few years ago. That reel would sometimes require repeated attempts to retract smoothly. During the install I realized that this Vevor reel was 22 lbs instead of 7.5 lbs, 3 time heavier so I strengthened the attachment to the garage track angle iron by adding another 5/16\" carriage bolt to the 2x4 I used for overhead mounting. I also used two Grade 5 3/8\" bolts to mount the reel bracket. This install is only a few days old so I gave this item a 4 star rating, in case of later early life failure, however it seems to be well made and beefy enough to do the job. Now that I have an open reel where I can see the workings of the retract mechanism I realize that my previous installation may have had retract issues because of a side-to-side bias causing the reel hose to jam a bit. I should be easier to see and fix this type of issue with Vevor's open reel design.

Good product does as it should. Would reccomend......................................................

Seems to work good, sometimes it is a bit hard to get it to catch, when you pull out the amount you need and then lock it. I need more time to see how it holds up to repeated use.

Arrived without mounting hardware. Vevor customer service shipped me the hardware and I can use the air hose reel now.

Decent 50' hose reel. Makes it much easier when filling tires and what not.

Item is good and the price is good fast shipping and quality is good we can’t ask for more for this price

Seems to be decent quality for the home garage. Nice and sturdy, I hung from the ceiling and the hose return is plenty strong All good so far, works like it should

Very happy with product. Very upset with condition upon delivery. Freight company felt need to aerate the box with a forklift. The reel not damaged, but I have missing hardware. So now I'll go to the hardware store buy what should have been in my package and in doing so boost the economy with my meager purchase. My how joyful.

I like that the hose is rated to 300psi. Unfortunately if you read the manual and the small sticker on the side of the hose reel you will find out that you should not use a pressure over 150psi. You will not find this information anywhere on the webpage but the higher 300psi number is shown multiple times. This becomes just a marketing term if you can't use the 300psi safely. I contacted Vevor support about this and they confirmed the 150psi limitation. Buyer beware, it's a good reel and works great if you stay below the 150psi limit. I have attached a photo of the hose showing both the psi ratings.

Needs a better way to mount maybe a bracket
