Description of Green Leaf WW-1 Wonder Winder Hand Crank Extension Cord WinderThe Wonder Winder holds 150 feet of cord and winds 100 feet of cord in 30 seconds. It is portable and can be used indoors and outdoors. Cord not included. Reversible handle can be used right or left handed. The Wonder Winder ends extension cord spaghetti for good. With the Wonder Winder, you'll never have to waste time untangling and coiling extension cords again. It comes with two twist-lock mounting plates that attach to a wall of your shop, garage, or basement, or outside of your house--anywhere you have an outlet. You can then just move the Wonder Winder from one location to another as you need it.  | The unit's basket holds up to 75-feet of 12/3 cord, 100-feet of 14/3 cord, or up to 150-feet of 16/3 cord. Simply plug your tool into the cord end, and as you walk to your work area the cord follows. When you're done, press the rewind lever, turn the handle, and your extension cord is stored neatly for future use. And it's quick, too--the Wonder Winder pulls in 100 feet of cord in about 30 seconds. The reversible handle can be used right or left handed. It's backed by a 3-year warranty. Assembly required (see a schematic of all the parts). Cord not included. |
Tools and Hardware Reviews of Green Leaf WW-1 Wonder Winder Hand Crank Extension Cord WinderCustomer Review: Great way to store extension cord Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using the Wonder Winder for several years (have 2) and have found them to work as advertised and pretty much without problems. I got my first unit as a Christmas gift 4 years ago and was impressed enough with it to get another the following year.
The only real problems I have run across are:
1) Protrudes from the wall a good way so you have to position it accordingly.
2) If cord gets dusty or wet, it doesn't wind in as well as if clean and dry.
3) Only 2 bases to mount on wall. I got around this with one unit by mounting one of the bases on a stand that I can carry to any location, which helps with #1 as I can just lean it up against the wall in a corner (stand has folding legs).
4) There is some wear around where the cord enters the unit due to the cord being pulled in at an angle - not so much of a problem with the stand mounted unit as it can be turned in the right direction.
On the positive side:
1) Winds cord well so that it doesn't get tangled.
2) Unwinding cord is easy and quick.
3) Excellent storage capacity for cord.
4) Unit can be moved from one mounting bracket to another as needed.
5) Units have held up well under moderate use for several years, even though they're made of plastic. I'm currently in the market for a replacement because a piece of lumber fell on the one I had mounted on a stand, which broke the mounting base and cracked the main (tan) part of the winder - don't know how long it will last with the crack in it, but, a month later, so far, so good.
The shortfalls are minor compared to the convenience and reliability of the product which is why I'd highly recommend it.
