5.0 out of 5 stars For the right cables, these are the best., February 16, 2007

By	Kalo Alexandra "machine monkey" (Sacramento, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

. I've purchased a dozen or so of these reels (in this and other sizes). They are extremely lightweight but very tough. It's nice to be able to carry just the weight of the cable around, rather than the cable plus all the steel weight of most good reels. The fact that they store well in corners and stack perfectly has been a huge benefit as well.
.
. On the down side, I've found cables over 1/2" in diameter become problematic to wind up, especially if they've been sitting on cold ground long enough to stiffen. Personally, I love these reels and so do my teams, but they won't use them for cables over a certain size. We use a bulky composite A/V cable that just won't work with these reels.
.
. With that said, if you are storing electrical, microphone, video, rf or even bulk exercise cable, I doubt there's a better manual cable reel out there than those the the QuickWinder company sells. Until Amazon carries the full line, you can go straight to quickwinder dot com to see all they offer.
.
. On a final note, my users (news gathering crews) tend to pick up a lot of dirt, crud and lawn clippings with their cables. Most reels are a huge hassle to clean. These buckets are great for cleaning. Just pull off the cable, pop the top off the bucket, spread out the pieces, hose them off, wipe down the cable and re-assemble. If you move very slowly, it might take a full 10 minutes to thoroughly clean a reel and cable.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great idea for LONG and LIGHT extension cords ..., August 6, 2006

By	WACAC "WACAC" (USA) - See all my reviews

The Quick Winder RAP-200 is a great idea. However, I tried to use it with a Coleman Heavy Duty Extension Cord. The Quick Winder could handle the bulk of the wire but it was almost impossible to wind up the full length of the heavy 100' wire.

I would recommend this for lighter weight extension cords.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best extension cord organizer solution, December 11, 2007

By	E. Severing (MO, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This product is worth every cent. A little pricier than some extension cord organizers, but unsurpassed in value. This is a great product, built to last, and well designed.
