What is your opinion on HF reviews. I realize they are probably mostly from DIY guys but it doesn't seem like Amazon with fake reviews.
My air hose was leaking and I thought it was the whip hose but after replacing it it is still leaking, it appears to be the inlet fitting on the reel. This is a Tool Shop manual reel from Menards that has lasted me over 8 years so I figure I got my moneys worth. After searching for something new I would like to step up to a retractable reel but since I only use it on average a couple times a month don't want to spend a lot so I looked at HF and they have one on sale for $60.

It gets good reviews plus there are a few on youtube that are good. Any one here have one of these?
I'm not to worried about the hose which seems to be the weak point in most reals because I have a 50' Goodyear hose.
