 Iar Hose Reel March 1, 2008
It was just what I was looking for. It has enough hose that I can run it to my sprinklers for blowing them out form my garage. Reel works great coming in and out.
Works as advertisied but ..... February 20, 2008
If you live in a cold climate you will probably want to replace the air hose with an all rubber hose. Also, either the length of the 100ft of hose or the restriction of the hose connection at the reel, or both, gives a noticeable drop in air supply compared to a 50ft hose connected directly to the compressor. When airing up tires it is no problem but does cut back on your impact wrench power. I'm not marking the reel down for these conditions because those concerns are just physics issues and for $120 it is still a good buy. The reel part, the swivel, the mounting, and the quality are all fine. Update: I replaced the 100ft hard plastic hose with a rubber hose. The air pressure/volume returned and the rubber hose is much nicer to work with. The OD of the rubber hose is much larger than the plastic hose. A 75ft rubber hose might be a snug fit inside the reel. Legacy had to use the plastic hose to get 100ft to fit. Also, the spring tension was way tighter than I like it from the factory so I followed the instructions to lessen the pull by several turns. Now it pulls out easily and still returns on its own gracefully.
great product! December 26, 2007

The reel seems to be very nice and sturdy I have not installed it yet but the quality looks excellent. I look forward to using it for many years to come.
 Manufacturer Very Difficult To Deal With; Short Lead-In Hose November 21, 2007
3 out of 10 found this review helpful
The Legacy L8310 Levelwind Retractable Air Hose Reel could be a good product, if it weren't for all the hassle around it. It comes with a short 3' lead-in hose, which is not nearly long enough for the product to perform as advertised when mounted to a bench or wall. The optional 10' leader hose listed in the manual should come stock with the product at the premium price charged. The fact that they charge this much for the reel and include a worthless leader hose makes this a bit of a rip off.
When I called Legacy Manufacturing, the maker, they informed me that they would not send one to me as a replacement, and would not even sell one to me as they only sold to dealers. And, no dealers stock the part, so it takes 4 weeks to special order. This is ridiculous!
I do not recommend the purchase of this product, both because of the 3' leader hose problem, and the indifferent attitude of the manufacturer towards its customers. My advice is to buy a cheaper reel, that comes with a longer lead-in hose. It is too bad, really, because the retractable feature of this reel is a good idea that can save hose tangling and make storage much easier.

The reel work great and for the price with 100' of hose, you can't beat it.
