Best in the biz 👍
Great
I was asked to review this a while ago. I prefer to use an item before I review it, so I figured I'd use it when my non-anniversay model failed....I've been using it daily for 15 years, hasn't failed me yet.
So, this new one is more of a collectable for me. It's pretty and shiny!
Keep up the good work, Key-Bak! You make excellent products!
I've used KeyBak keychain reels many years,they're really good

My new KeyBak is just like the one I got in the mid 1970's! With the belt loop I don't have to worry about losing it like I did with my first KeyBak with the belt clip.
My keys are handy when I need them. No fumbling in my pocket or forgetting to put them in my pocket. When I reach down at my side, I know they are there, ready when I need them. Always ready, always secure. And always retract when I am finished with them. KeyBak rules!
KEY-BAK Original Series Retractable Keychain
It works every time, like it's supposed to.
My wife needed a badge reel that had enough tension to hold he badge and Vocera without unspooling halfway to her waist. KB did a great job with this product. I will be buying for company again!
I have had this product previously, after several years of use it finally broke down and needed replacing. My company no longer provides this product so I am happy to have found it and it works great.
Excellent Kevlar cord. Far surpasses any product you can buy from a hardware store!
Great, I've had them for years! Great product.

KEY-BAK Original Series Retractable Keychain in Vintage Chrome or Vinyl Black
I've found that the chain/Kevlar thread tends to last 2-3 years then needs replacing. Key-Bak has been good about replacing the key-chain when this happens at no charge. I ordered the black and they sent me the chrome version. Not a big deal.With all the keys I use daily, I don't know how I'd survive without the Key-Bak.

Works great and heavy duty to last.
This is a solid accessory for something I use every day.
SIDEKICK® Twist-Free Carabiner Retractable Keychain and Badge Reel That Holds Up to 5 Keys and ID Badge
I have bought retractable lanyards before and they didn't hold up.... but when I found this company, and explained the problems we were having with ours, they recommended these. Huge difference! Never a single problem with any of them now! When we ended up hiring more staff, we didn't bother running to the big box store... we contacted this company once again and ordered more!
I bought the SIDEKICK® TWIST-FREE CARABINER RETRACTABLE KEYCHAIN on Amazon, which made it easy to verify how long it's been in service. Yesterday while heading to my barn it finally failed. The Kevlar line detached at the keys end. It lasted one week shy of SIX YEARS PLUS ONE MONTH! I used it nearly everyday. New one arrives tomorrow but the local locksmith told me that this retractable keychain may have a lifetime warranty so I'll be looking into that. OVER 6 years and around $10.
To be fair, I've only this about a month or so, but so far, it's holding up quite well.
As an ER Trauma nurse, I need a badge buddy that can keep up. The SIDEKICK is able to hold multiple badge buddies and keys without drooping. Completely satisfied, but the housing broke in half 2 months after the warranty expired. 4 stars as I wish it lasted longer.
