Will Well Small Metal Heavy Duty Retractable Badge Reels with Belt Clip (2 Pack)

This is the second time I've bought these and I was debating between 4 and 5 stars but settled on 5 stars because my gripes are things I only experienced outside the normal usage of this item. For 8 months my badge lives in my hip pocket with the reel dangling out while the other 4 months I wear it on my lapel. While in my pocket it banged around on alot of things which deteriorated the finish of the reel, bent the clasp, cracked the housing, and the screw that holds the 2 halves of the housing together loosened and prevented the cord from retracting. I was able to bend the clasp back into working order and disassemble the reel to rewind the spring and cord which now works like normal. Even with a cracked housing and worn finished it looks and works good. I've never lost my badge because the snap that attaches to the badge keeps it secured to the reel. The price is more than fair for the quality of the product. It's about as easy to use as it can get.

Heavy duty and durable, bigger and heavier than average, would be good for someone in trades/ construction etc that needs something heavy duty

Fiber cord on badge holder broke after 10 1/2 months when retracting it Still recommend over a cheap/flimsy badge holder as your badge isn't going to break/fall off while you're walking around. Clip and plastic connector to badge are very sturdy and seem like they would last years before breaking. Glad this came in a pack of two. I'll update when the second one breaks.

Absolutely the best! Only reordered because after almost four year of daily use, the first vinyl ring-strap began to give out. String, retracting spring, and belt clip still going strong.

Heavy duty quality and great price

Nice but way bigger and heavier than I expected.

It is been 2 years since I purchased a pack of 2. I wanted a second one so I'd have an immediate replacement if the cord broke. While it did not break. The cord, after 2 years of pulling and releasing to scan multiple readers everyday, it finally frayed and started to not retract. I made through the day until I could get home and actually Search for the 2nd one. The reel and other parts still in good working condition. It's a shame the cord cant be replaced some how. Now looking forward to another long use of my second Will Well Retractable Badge Holder.

I've used these for a while as a security officer and when they work they're good. However there are two issues and the second one is why I'm giving it one star. 1. The button wears out after about 4 or 5 months. Eventually your keys will just fall off as it won't have the tightness anymore to stay buttoned. Not a huge deal because you can just use the key ring on them. 2. This is why I'm giving it one star. Some absolute genius cheaped out on the screw. There's one screw holding this all together. If this screw gets even slightly lose it WILL come apart and it is a NIGHTMARE to try and reassemble. The reason is the designer cheaped out on the screw. When reassembling it the screw is JUST slightly too short to make contact with the threading. If I take the clip off it makes contact and will tighten. But opening is larger than the screw head so it passes through and the thing falls apart. All this hassle could have be avoided if the designer had not been cheap and just made the screw a millimeter longer. Heck, even HALF a millimeter and I could easily reassemble this thing. I put my entire bodyweight down to try and force contact and even then it didn't work. I don't know what Blackmagic they're using to get this thing together but I can only surmise it was either them being incredibly cheap, or most likely it was done so once it came undone you wouldn't be able to put it back together without either knowing what technique pr tool they used to assemble it and thus are forced to buy a new one. For this reason I have to give one star. Absolute joke.

Doesn’t come setup. Difficult to do by oneself

Item actually feels solid compared to the cheaper retractable cords you can get. You can feel the quality difference in it when using it. Only thing that people may not like is that it is significantly heavier than I expected, but I guess this shows it's quality.

I love it .
