Mollys Posted October 19, 2020 Report Share Posted October 19, 2020 My husband would like this item..its on hi RV dream list, and he doesn’t know I’m writing this. We are seniors and I don’t know much about this item he just mentioned it would make his life so much easier. But it’s one of those items that he and I normally would not spend this type of money on because we are on a fixed budget. I’ve looked all around and the cheapest I can find it for is maybe $20 less. Can someone suggest something else, that they’ve used or created that is less money or an easier tool.

Shawn Patterson Posted October 19, 2020 Report Share Posted October 19, 2020 I did some poking around as well and this really does look like a good price, especially since this is shipped from and sold by Amazon. Just be aware that this will also require a 12 volt power source where it gets installed. That's probably not an issue on your Motorhome though as I am going to guess that the cord reel will be installed in a compartment where there is already some 12 volt connections.

dblr Posted October 19, 2020 Report Share Posted October 19, 2020 How about at a RV Surplus store? I added links to 2 different ones below. https://bontragers.com/ https://www.johnsonssurplus.com/ Quote 2017 River Stone Legacy 38MB 2001 T2000 Kenworth 2009 Smart Passion ET Junior hitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobsallyh Posted October 19, 2020 Report Share Posted October 19, 2020 Another thing to keep in mind, is there room for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk W Posted October 19, 2020 Report Share Posted October 19, 2020 Welcome to the Escapee forums! I did some searching and I found another one from Amazon for about $200. This one is from Mor-ryde so is a quality product but it is not powered but manual. I also found this one from Technology Research for $335. As Bob has suggested, the space for the equipment could also be a problem as it will need to be near if now where the cord is presently stored.
