Customer Reviews for HDX 150 ft. 16/3 Extension Cord Storage Reel with Stand

it's not as sturdy as I wish it would be, but it works fine with the cords I have.

This is just a poorly designed product. The stand prevents you from leaving the plug end out while winding up the cord, which means one end of the cord will be buried at the center of the spool, and the user needs to unwind the entire length of the cord before it is usable; not standard usage. Other posters have posted the "hack" to drill a hole so the cord can be fed out the center of the spool, which is essentially a feature of other products. There are better options at this price point.

I'm sorry I unwound my 100ft cord BEFORE I figured out it doesn't work as I expected. Taking it back because I don't have the means to be drilling holes. Thanks for the hack advice, though.

I'm returning this item as the slot to hold the cord so you can wind the cord without it slipping is too small therefore cannot be used.

Works good. I wrapped light weight 50ft extension cord.

Helpful by keeping my extension cords in a neat place for storage

Very flimsy and no way to plug end of cable to remain free so are unable to use cord while on reel

it doesn't have a hole in it to put one end in it. I drilled a hole to make it work. Because how it came you have to unreal the entire cord to use it. If it had a hole in it you could plug it in and use what you need. poor design and it's cheap plastic

Did not performe as expected.

Does the job i need it to so I'm pleased

Well, I don’t have to fight to untangle my cords anymore. Great little gadget

The previous comments are correct regarding the need to drill a 1 1/4" hole in the core shaft to make this device functionally. Even after doing this the product is very flimsy and awkward to use I am used to .better quality at Home Depot. Shame on whoever put this product on your shelves.

It was exactly what I wa looking for. I used it to coil electrician fishing wire over 100 ft. long.

Met my expectations and would recommend

Replaced broken reel with this one. Much easier to hang on wall.

Easy to use. Keeps long extension cord organized.

It stores the cord neatly but is not the best for using consistently. Like the reviews before mine, you either have to leave a small piece of the male part of the cord to dangle so that you can plug it to a close outlet and use after you unwind the portion you want or you have to rig it by putting a hole for the cord so that it works for continued use and not just storage
