No experience with the Woodcraft one but I have had this one, http://www.harborfreight.com/38-in-x-50-ft-retractable-hose-reel-62344.html , from Harbor Freight for years without any problems at all. With a 20 Off Coupon this one wouldn't be that much more money than the shorter Woodcraft one plus you'll end up with a 3/8" hose.

Thanks for the link.

I will keep that one in mind.

How about the Blubird reel at Menards? Anyone have any experience with it?

I dont know for sure but the HF one is probably the same quality as the Woodcraft version .

He harborfreight one is a good product. It's one of their best gems. The price has gone up quite a bit because it's so popular. They used to be $45. Very durable and the closest to the real commercial quality ones that I have seen. It also has 3/8 hose instead of the 1/4 of the woodcraft one.

The woodcraft one. Well I have had plastic case ones like it and they have never lasted very long. The open style of the hf one is the best design IMO.

No help here. If you are not in a hurry, watch Craig's List. I found a "Reelcraft 81100" for only $80. He had two...wish I had bought both!

If you use one frequently, it is smart to buy quality.

I have had the HF one for probably ten years. Works great! I bolted mine to the floor next to the overhead door so I could air up tires on our cars in the driveway.
