Southwire Polar Solar Light Duty Coiled Extension Cord, 20Ft, 16 Gauge, 3 Conductor, Coil Cord, Black, 12260008

I have one of those Oreck vacuum cleaners that come with a very long detachable power cord...with no way to wrap said cord nicely around the vacuum. I decided to switch to a coiled power cord instead...and this one works nicely for my needs. This cord is thick, and quite heavy. Heavier than I expected it to be. I agree with some others that it is too expensive, but it's the cheapest 20-foot coiled expensive cord on the market I could find as of this posting. I hope I do not experience any insulation failures that others have reported.

Made in USA! I am surprised. Coleman Cable in Waukegan IL is the manufacturer. The cord used is high quality Southwire 16/3 SJEOW type, another bonus because they are also made in USA, one of the best. This cord is heavy duty and even though some think it's pricey you get what you pay for. I hooked it up to one of my cutting machines that has an overhead power trolley, worked perfect. The coils are tight but work like they should, yes it's heavy, it's supposed to be because it is real power cord.

Not super light but that’s not really the point. Built really well. I paired it with a second 20ft cord to arrive at a really useful solution to run my electric leaf blower around my patio home sized patio and 2+ car garage. Together they’re short enough to not turn into a tangled, looped (for storage, etc) cord from hell. ... and yet long enough to do any job.

Nice extension cord but a little overpriced for what you get. I suppose if you just have to have the coiled cord (I did) it's worth it since I couldn't find anything similar on the internet. It should last forever if you don't overheat it and keep it out of the sun.

Cord worked perfectly for my application as I have a large open span garage with ceiling joists about eleven feet above the floor. Wanted power supply in middle of garage without having to install permanent elec. boxes at a reachable height. With cord plugged into boxes installed on ceiling joists it hangs to about 6-7 feet above floor, easily accessable, and allows me a ready power supply within a 15-20 foot lateral area. Had been hunting a product like this for a long time as I had previously seen one in an industrial application. Amazon is the only place I have found anything close. Was a little leary to order after reading some of the posted reviews about the length limitations of the cords previous customers had purchased but the one I received was as described and works well for my needs. Will probably order more.

These are well built, reliable and safe. I ordered a 20 ft., and had to return it for a 10 ft. It holds it's shape and consistently springs back to it's original condition/shape.

I purchased this for my sister. However it was not exactly what she was hoping for. The coiled cord was much heavier than expected. She had one previously that she had for years and used in her beauty shop. It was light weight enough that she could move around easily with it. This one, not so much.

The description clearly states that this cord expands from 4-20 feet, and since I needed approximately 15 feet of cord I thought this would be ideal. Not the case...the attached factory tag says 3 to 10 feet, and after I measured it, stretching to ten feet is the absolute maximum. So now I must purchase an additional cord. Had the product description been accurate, I would not have purchased this. If you need a coiled cord that's 10 feet or less, this is a good quality cord and the price is reasonable. If you need a longer one though, this isn't for you.

Polar/Solar “Made In The USA” coiled extension cord is certainly a well made product. Grounded with a right angle plug that does help to eliminate any unexpected disconnection. Not easy finding decent COILED extension cords on the net or at most brick & mortar stores. This one fits the bill. Also is resistant to oils and chemicals so is a good cord to use around a work shop.

I couldn't buy 1/2 this wire (without the ends) for 2 times the price from local wholesale electrical supplier. its the sjeow cord needed for heavy equipment I was looking for.

Great item I would recommend this to anyone

Quite expensive but well made. Using to power a chain hoist which moves along a beam.

Very happy with this product. Great quality!
