Is this one the same as the Flexzilla?

No Lynden, that is not the same. Google "Flexzilla reel" for many options. The Flexzilla hose is the best I have used and the reel is nice. All the reels at HF are big and heavy and have a crappy HF hose.

Reelcraft 100'. I did not have room for two reels so I wanted 100'....one of my best decisions. Craigslist is a true blessing.
Flexzilla was not on the market at the time. If I were shopping today, Flexzilla would be hard to overlook but I would settle for less than 100'.

Also 50' without a BIG return spring is about the limit. 100 foot of hose crawling across the floor is borderline dangerous, and a lot heavier on the floor dragging than it is in your hand carrying. DAMHIKT You need a really large shop to go past 50' too, especially if your compressor is centralized. Ohhh yeah, probably don't need to say this, but always unhook the tool before dragging. I watched some hillbilly dragging a framing nailer once, he was shooting up stuff as he went
