We use this kite line but if you had to roll it up by hand you'll be there awhile. We use a cordless drill to rewind the 500 feet of line. We have a great time flying kites and this spool makes it easy to hold on to and the kites fly 500 feet up and out.

They call it "Stake Line" but it comes set up for kites. There is a fishing type clip already tied to the end of the line. Just clip it on your kite and you're ready to go. The other end is tied securely to the spool to ensure that it doesn't slip off as you pass 499'.

Winding in 500' of kite string is a great forearm workout. ;-)

Very durable line, but its almost too much to coil by hand so I use my 1/2"cordless drill to wind it up. Makes flying the kite more enjoyable.

i like how it's easy to let the string out to get height on the kite fast, but it's quite a bit of work winding it back up. might have gone with one that has a reel, but over all it was a good value, easy to use and lots of string.

Does what its supposed to do. Light weight, sturdy enough, and a little easier to wind. However it makes me want to go that next step - to a crank winding system ala fishing pole.

I used the line with one my kites and it worked very well with it! I loved how the line is on a spool too!

Descent quality line, However the winder is basically useless. It will take a long time to wind in a kite with this type of reel. I bought it and transferred the line to a hoop style winder. Buy it for the line not the winder.

I gave this product top ratings not because it was high in educational value, but because it was a good addition to purchasing the kite. I would recommend this purchase over using the kite string provided with the kite. Durable and much easier to use.

It made the project so much easier because the kite string didn't tangle and retrieval is easier. Prompt deliver wa a bonus.

The way the item is pictured led me to believe I was ordering four spools, but it was just to display the colors. So you can imagine my disappointment when I received only one. I recommend having a color scheme to the side instead of displaying four spools. Thanks!
