This works quite well
The Reel came with all the required parts except adapters for my air hose fittings. Make sure that you have air line sealant or Teflon tape to seal all the air fittings before starting the job. I mounted my real on the air compressor on a piece of wood that I had bolted onto the air compressor frame. It made it much easier to have proper clearance for the handle and mount screws to hold the reel. You do need a short piece of hose with fittings to go from the compressor to the reel. I installed a female hose fitting on the reel inlet to connect the hose to, which made it easy to disconnect the hose. The reel works great. It is easy to pull the hose off and real it back on and it does not have any adjustment problems like an auto-winder. It was very easy to purchase this on Amazon and it was delivered very fast.

Disappointing
After reading the reviews I purchased one of these reels for our farm shop. I figured with the low price if it wasn't what most people claimed it wasn't a big loss. Overall the product seems to be well made but I found three things that I was disappointed in. 1. It's rated for 100' of 3/8" air hose. Evidently that's not the heavy duy hose we use as I could only get about 85' of hose on the reel no matter how careful I was in winding it. Arms need to be about 2" longer to give enough clearance for 100' of hose. 2. As mentioned in other reviews, it takes an adapter to screw the 1/4" fitting common on 3/8" hose into the 3/8" fitting on the reel. Not a big deal for us as we have a larger supply of fitting on hand but would be an inconvenience for most. 3. The screw that holds the handle on backs out when winding up the hose. A left handed bolt would have eliminated this problem or do as I did & put "Lock-tite" on the bolt threads but don't ever plan on taking it apart.
