I love my metal badge reel. When you have to scan your key card as often as I do, it makes it so much easier when it’s on a retractable line. I don’t even have to think about it; I just grab, swipe, and let it zip right back into place. It’s a great solution for anyone who needs to keep ID or something like that visible on their person, but also needs to use it frequently. Anyone who has to scan their ID or key card should have one on their key ring.
It’s made of metal and really durable, too. I’ve had some other ones in the past that were made of plastic, but they barely lasted a few short months before they broke or wore out. The metal badge reels are much better, in my opinion, and have yet to let me down. It doesn’t matter if it gets wet, or cold, or dropped – it still works, no matter what. These reels are really great and anyone else who uses one is sure to agree.
