You can't do better for the price!
We have 2 of these at church for Ethernet cables, and apart from the retaining part inside the drum coming loose I can't find anything to complain about. There's a small push fit retainer that holds the reel to the frame and with lots of use this comes loose and falls out, not difficult to refit, just takes a hammer!
Having the extra side cable store is really helpful as we have one cable that doesn't need fully unwinding and it means we can leave a little from the middle available, many reels don't have this and we'd miss it.
Plenty of holes for looping cables through and a clamp to engage to stop the cable unwinding in storage/transit.
Our cables are 30 and 40m and there's plenty of room left so I'd bet anything up to 150m of standard Ethernet would be fine.

Great cable drum. Plastics and metal parts feel perfect
This cable drum does exactly for what it is meant. The quality feels fine and the anti-roll break is good enough. This my second order and fourth drum of this type. I use it for 30 meter xlr cables and for 50 meter sdi cables. I do recommend this drum. In reality it is the same drum as the Varytec Universal Drum which was sold for 9,90 euro but now is taken out. I guess upping the price 4 euro was considered less 'ethical' then giving it a new name at a higher price. Still it is worth the money absolutely

Very Convenient
Really handy! Cuts down on wrapping up cables. Have a ethernet cable that was so awkward to wrap up. No problem with this cable drum. I must buy for anyone with cables.

Nice cord reel
We use this to roll our DMX cables on. Works like a charm. Much better than oversized hose reels.

Handy for studio or live
This is one of those convenient products that isn't particularly sexy but is actually very useful. I do a lot of mobile recording applications, often where time is tight so getting in and setting up and packing down quickly is required. The cable drum makes life a lot easier, I used to have a box full of (carefully!) coiled XLRs, but they'd always end up in a tangle; this takes up less space, is easy to carry and is fast and easy to deploy, and more importantly makes packing down more efficient, which is great at the end of a long session.
Overall quality feels good, there's also a handy little locking wedge to stop the reel rotating when you don't want it to. All in all, a good buy.

Extremely good value for money.
Very good quality item for the price. The metal frame construction is very sturdy and feels hard wearing, the plastic drum is also of a good construction and does not feel brittle like some plastic drums. I bought four of these drums and have managed to fit around thirty metres of 4 x 2.5mm cable on each one so you should easily be able to fit fifty metres or more of 2 x 2.5mm cable. There are convenient plastic cable grips around the outside of the drum which is very useful in stopping the cable unravelling while in storage or transport. Overall, a great product at a great price, highly recommended!

Cheap But Great!!
Great cable reel for 100m or more depending on the thickness and cable size but worked for my 2x50m xlr and 10x10m xlr. Great product for any dj with lots of cable

Reel perfect for DMX cable run
Taken this reel so i can put inside DMX cable i'm using to carry signal from FOH to stage. Having ability to run it quickly and to store it back much faster to reel is really nice. Maybe some cable lock system on the end would be nice feature). Sturdy enough :)

Practical with a multicore and stage box
The extra reel on the side is very useful as you can wind the 'tails' of your multicore around it, allowing you just enough cable free at the mixer end
