What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the cord reel for effortless automatic retraction, heavy-duty construction, and time-saving convenience in garages and workshops. Many highlight the 50-foot cord length, three-outlet design, and sturdy mounting bracket as ideal for eliminating manual winding and reducing clutter. Most appreciate the robust build quality and durability compared to cheaper alternatives. However, a notable minority report premature failures including internal spring breaks, breaker issues, or units stopping retracting within months. Some note the short power cord limits ceiling mounting options. Despite these drawbacks, most customers consider it a worthwhile investment.

It works
Would Recommendout of the two options that Lowes has, this one works well enough for a decent price
Breaker trips too fast
Would Not Recommendthe breaker is in the plug which in my case is 14 ft in the air on my shop rafter. I need a ladder just to reset it. I'm going to cut it off and replace with a regular male plug. The manufacturer should put the breaker either in the outlet or in the cord near them
Kobalt products for the price you just cant beat
Love it. The price is great and it comes with 50 foot cord.
DANGEROUS !!!! STAY AWAY !!!
Would Not RecommendI bought this 2 years ago used maybe 7 times. The photos include my sons hand and the cord. I have ALWAYS BEEN DEDICATED TO KOBALT BUT THIS I CANNOT JUSTIFY HAVING. IT FRIED MY COMPRESSOR TOO !! SO NOW I AM OUT WAY MORE THAN THE COST OF THE CORD AND IT BURNED MY SONS HAND, WHAT IS GOING ON KOBALT ???
