4.0 out of 5 stars
truly sturdy!,

This review is from: Legacy L8611 Heavy-Duty Retractable Air Hose Reel-with 3/8-Inch by 50-Rubber Hose (Tools & Home Improvement)
OK, so I'm a nut: I bought the Legacy 8611 to install in my home garage. It seems very sturdy -- but maybe I'm not giving it the heavy work-out you might, on the bed of a service truck, or overhead some grease bay. (Note: If you're concerned about such things, this model is from China rather than Iowa; nevertheless it seems well-made. I chose the 8611 over Legacy's newer "LevelWind" models even though they're made in the USA and have the hose-leveler feature -- because they are plastic (PP) instead of metal! Also I like the idea of bolting it down to my slab, versus the LevelWind models have rubber feet and a wall bracket.) Though the description doesn't say so, a 3-foot lead-in hose and two fittings are included in the package. Also, the photo is incorrect in respect to the way it was actually packaged: to use it on the floor (as shown), you must unbolt the upper arm and rotate it 90 degrees (tilt it forward). It's no big deal, but just in case you're some kind of wimp who doesn't want to fiddle around with his/her new toys...

If only it didn't leave you red handed,

Great hose reel. Very heavy and well built and i'd give it five stars if it were not for one little detail. The hose that is supplied seems to have missed the addition of whatever chemical ingredient that keeps it from depositing its red color on everything it touches including your hands. I tried wiping the whole thing down with denatured alcohol to no avail. Oh well. Despite the fact that I was able to install mine on the ceiling by myself I doubt that any ordinary person could do the installation alone. Yeah, it's that heavy.

Bought this for my fathers birthday. I had it sent Prime shipping and it shipped and arrived when they said it would. It gave the old man a project to tackle. He reinforced the ceiling in his garage and mount it overhead. Apparently its well built and I am now the favorite son. win.

I have used this for three months and is mounted on the garage ceiling. Very rugged for the price. Why purchase the 25 footer when the 50 footer can be bought delivered to your door(USA) in the $70.00 range, not Amazon though. YEP made in China but fits my light use needs.

Better than expected,

This hose and reel are better than I expected. The entire unit is very heavy. I needs to be mounted to at least a 2x8
