I've had a pull down light for 15+ years.  Couldn't do without it.
Last year for Christmas I was given an extension cord reel.  I'm still 
trying to figure out what took so long - I love it.  You won't believe
how handy it is.

By the way, Costco has (had?) and extension cord reel for around $20.
Mine is a Sears one (cost around $45) and is of much higher quality 
(retracts MUCH smoother/better), but hey, a $20 is better than none, 
and the Costco one does work...

I have air hoses on reel too...
