SHENGXIN 2 Pack Retractable Keychain Heavy Duty Carabiner Badge Holder, Tactical ID Badge Reel with 32” Steel Retractable Cord, 8.0 OZ

This is an S Tier badge reel for sure! Bought this in January 2025 (currently April 2026) and it holds strong. Compared to other badge reels that my coworkers have, the steel cable sticks together better than the cheapo ones with just the string. Save the hassle and potential of losing your valuables by buying this, and you will thank me later 😁

Solid construction. An issue with "other" badge holders is that the spin wheel is weak and breaks easily due to the metal braided wire being too heavy. However THIS badge holder has a very strong spin wheel!! The belt clip is also strong. I don't get the feeling that this is going to give out anytime soon. It should be noted that if you are fragile/weak in hand strength, you might not like this one so much. It's not hard to pull by any means, but it's also not like pulling thread over ice. It needs to have the resistance that it has though, or else it would break due to the metal wire. Should I go through these two, I will most likely be buying another set. These are very nice.

It breaks right under the metal clasp. 90 days. Is it worth .11 cents a day until failure. Have had 5

I got this for my work keys since I have to unlock a lock door and got tired of having to find my keys or unhook my keys from my belt. I was iffy about the hook since it looks kind of think but so far so good. Maybe it's my lack of strength but the opening does take some really pushing to get the latch to push back to unhook. It's advertised as heavy duty do I guess that's the whole reason for it being harder to push back. I do worry for the ID badge look. I hope it'll last in the long run but time will tell. Will update if anything changes sooner than later.

this is quality, heavy duty BUT i still want more comfort on strength of primary part

I really like how durable it is. I have a decent size wad of keys attached and the cable doesn’t even unwind a little bit from the weight. The carabiner style clip is very strong. Stays attached well.

Doesn't lose retract spring like the store bought types

The drawstring mechanism works great. The problem is that the retainer on the clip works itself loose and then falls off. Because the plastic is shaped oddly, there is no way to replace the clip without cutting the clip off.

Sehr gute Verarbeitung

If you are looking for the retractable keychain which has strong string, this should be the one.

Die robustesten und qualitativ besten die ich bis jetzt hatte. Die Länge des Stahlseils ist perfekt. TOP!
