Any of you guys have a recommendation on a good electric cord and also air hose real? Want to put a couple in the shop.

Tired of dragging out extension cords and hoses.

I got one of these air hose reels with a gift card about 5 years ago, I expected it to be garbage, but it has worked great for me

I buy the retractable cord reels from harbor freight & mount them on the ceiling. Which reminds me, I need to get a couple more.

As for hose reels, I watch for them to be on sale at the local farm stores. I've got a couple retractables. One I bought from harbor freight, the other from the farm store. Also got a couple manual roll up hose reels from grizzly.

I'm poor so I bought the manual roll-up style for my basement from Canadian Tire when they were on sale for 25 or 30 bucks.

I just used four of the Reelcraft H28000 on a fire dept project. I sourced thru my local hydrolic supply shop. Good quality.

I use one one of those line reels that utility co's use to lay electrical wire. Holds about 300' of 12 gauge wire..Great if you have to park your trailer or cube van 300' from the house and spend half the day walking back and forth.:no:
.i guess it could be used in a shop too..
