Wish I bought something different. Should have a better locking mechanism.

I bought this for the 1-yr old puppy I recently adopted. I wanted to give her some extra running room when I took her for walks. She is currently 30 lbs. and this leash is rated for dogs weighing up to 55 lbs., but it broke and snapped when I used the brake to rein her in closer to me. It split right near where I attached it to her collar. Fortunately, I wasn’t that far from my truck, otherwise it would’ve been an exhausting hike carrying her back to the parking lot.

I actually got one has a gift before and I decided to get a new one. The length is okay however when trying to retrieve the leach back the lock doesn’t work like it should. I wouldn’t recommended for a dog bigger than 50 pounds.

This leash lasts for a couple of years of constant use on my 80+ pound pitbull who can pull hard at times. The design is super durable for beach style abuse. Mine drags in the sand, gets submerged in the ocean, left out in the rain etc and I never see any wear and tear or compromise whatsoever. I have used Flexi leashes for about ten years and never use other brands. Flexi does not disappoint. Who else makes a 26ft retractable leash fit for a pitbull?????

I have had this leash for 2 years and it has worked very well. I do not have a trained Chihuahua and from time to time I may need to jerk on the leash to guide him where he needs to go and the leash has never broke. It is very sturdy for what I need it for.

Nice in functionality but our 9 month old doodle chewed through it on the second walk- she’s never chewed through another leash.
Marlena (verified owner) –
Have been buying this brand for years and years
Very durable
Stevek9 (verified owner) –
I bought this to replace a really good one that lasted years before the recoil spring wore out. Others I bought were cheap and weak. This one is fantastic and has a long cord and great spring and is really comfortable to carry!
Running in Circles (verified owner) –
I purchased because my dog likes to run in circles. Love the strength and thickness of the leash hard for my dog to chew through.
Retractable leash 100lb (verified owner) –
We had a much larger flexi with 25′ leash that finally failed (leash broke at the snap connection) after 16 years of long walks with two 100+ lb dogs). We purchased our new flexi from petsupplycanada but opted for the small retractable 16′ leash. Very comfortable and secure feeling… and we haven’t missed the longer 25′ leash whatsoever. Thanks flexi and petsupplycanada!
sawturtles (verified owner) –
It is durable for a 80 lb puppy to run and explore.

I love Flexi for training recall and letting my dog have some freedom while not being completely off leash. The tape Flexi I find a bit more sturdy than the thin cord one and gives me a bit of control instead of virtually none. That being said, my little guy is tiny so this wouldn’t give much control at all if you have a large dog.

Broke within 2 days. Tape ripped right in half after a hand ful of uses.

I bought this leash a few months ago, the tape started to tear apart.
custeve (verified owner) –
I have used a couple of the TUG retractable leashes and had to go to petsupplycanada to buy another leash when my dog bit through his current leash. First, I was surprised the price was so much higher in-store. But mostly I thought the quality felt cheap. The tape is not as strong as the TUG and the handle is light and feels cheap. The lock to keep the tape from extending does not work smoothly. A rather cheap product at almost twice the price of the TUG. I am going back to the TUG.
Greg S (verified owner) –
Flexi is a company who absolutely never honours their products warranty. Do not buy there junk. It’s absurd the prices they charge for a leash with zero warranty.

Purchased this item to bring home our new dog. Broke the first day we got it within 2 hours. The cord snapped.

Purchased this to replace a similar one we lost. It works just as well. Quite durable, button responds well, and easy to use.
Whiskeys Dad (verified owner) –
The quality of this leash is amazing and it is HIGH QUALITY materials. The only side note I have is that it is really big compared the other Medium size I had before.
RobCatVI (verified owner) –
It snapped during the first 10 days of use, my dog is not large or exceptionally strong and in the midrange for this leash per label.

You, as the pet parent, set the length of the led for the protection of your pet. One simple push of your thumb, locks or releases the lead

I’ve had this classic retractable leash for over ten years for everyday use with the same dog. Has not failed me once. Very reliable & long lasting product. Thank you Flexi!
MimiHazel (verified owner) –
My dog is an american bulldog that weighs 44Kg (about 50 lbs) so I got the leash for dogs up to 110 lbs. The leash broke from the handle part after one use.
Guido1947 (verified owner) –
We have used this product with all of our large breed dogs and the ability to adjust the length of the lead as desired is the best feature

Wry good product so much easier on my dog and me. So much more freedom
Murrayr665 (verified owner) –
Love these leashes. Had one for my previous dog, an Airedale, a 10 metre tape style, but was much too heavy for my present Sealyham terrier. My new one is a 5 meter tape style rated for 10 kilo dog. They are sturdy and dependable and will handle almost any abuse.

We have a mid-size beagle. He doesn’t pull and is very calm. Somehow the day after we brought this the tape snapped and wouldn’t reel back.
Not impressed.
Mich (verified owner) –
My old old old one finally needed to be replaced. I love it. It is attached to my wheelchair so I can easily use it without having to hold it.
BWett (verified owner) –
I bought this a few weeks ago. It works very well. My pup is around 30 pounds and it holds him well. I had a non retractable before but wanted the extra length. He is adjusting well. I also like how it has a spot to upgrade for doggie bags. 10/10 would recommend
Havoc23G (verified owner) –
My wife put the leashes on our r month old Czech Shepherd. He didn’t chew it and it was the 2nd time we put it on him. We hear a loud pop and a piece of it flies across the room approx 12ft and hits the wall barely missing me. I would say it was a one time thing, but the week before, he had the leash in his mouth while walking and it ripped without any tension.
I don’t trust this brand and my puppy weighs about 20 pounds if that.

I bought this to get a better made brand than what I had. It exceeded my expectations.
ealston (verified owner) –
We bought this leash about a month ago and it has worked well so far. The locking feature clicks pretty loudly, but otherwise, no problems. What I really want to say is, consider buying straight from a local store if you can; we shipped ours and the box was comically oversized. So please, save the wasted space and material and do local pick-up if available, especially if it’s the only thing you order.
Lorabell (verified owner) –
I really like the leash however find it quite expensive.
LukeD (verified owner) –
The first time my dog chewed the leash, the ribbon was about 90% severed by the time I got him to leave it. Incredibly weak material. I’m sure it works great for older pups who are past the leash chewing phase.
Lwade (verified owner) –
I bought this a few weeks ago and love it. The stop setting on it is easy to use

My old one finally gave out after many years. I bought this one on clearance. Completely happy with this product.
HollandLaw (verified owner) –
I owned the verison made about 15 years ago, the Flexi Long 3-8. It had the cord instead of the tape leash. After being used most of my Husky’s life of 15 years and for a year with a new Husky, the abrasion from going around bushes and trees finally broke the old one.The tape on the new one is fine, but the location of the tape/leash outlet on the reel is, for me, terrible. On the old one, when the dog pulled on the leash, the handle was vertical because the leash came out on the other side of the real. It was GREAT to hold on to when the dog was pulling, which Huskies love to do. On the new one, the tape comes out of the real very close to the handle, near the top. While this lets the leash handle sit horizontally in the hand (thumb forward) when just walking, as soon as there is pressure on the leash, the handle is pulling on the bottom of your little finger, not on your entire hand. A sudden pull and the leash is out of your hand! For this reason, I don’t personally like it. Some people may find this natural or fine, but it is a terrible design compared to the old one for me.
Ica2023 (verified owner) –
I purchased the leash and am happy with it so is my puppy.

Beemer2thaMER (verified owner) –
Love it and it’s light weight . I’ll buy it again when I need another one.
Do not buy from petsupplycanada (verified owner) –
Bought this a couple weeks ago and just got to use it recently, it does its job and seems sturdy enough.
cdtaylor0329 (verified owner) –
I returned it and stuck with the traditional leash. Retractable leashes keep constant tension on a dog. Even if it is minor tension, dogs still notice it. Not good for training a puppy.
Babynurse (verified owner) –
Bought this to give my dog a little more freedom on walks, as well as a little more control. Love that it’s a “tape” as opposed to a thin wire type lead.
Chiqui79 (verified owner) –
The more light and best leash ever. I would recommended it
SEBS (verified owner) –
I used the leach under 5 times…my puppy bit the leach and it shredded. She did not chew on it for minutes, just a few seconds. This product is certainly not up to the quality I expect.
Miss Mary Mac (verified owner) –
It works like a charm! No problems with my 18 lb. terrier.
Leash Handler (verified owner) –
Very Smooth on the extension with a comfortable handle
dharr (verified owner) –
Overall, this is an okay leash. It says for dogs up to 55lbs, but when our 43lb dog pulls, sometimes the lock gives, and she can pull away. Teh leash itself seems a little thin for a 55lb dog. Also seems shorter than 16ft, but maybe that’s just me. Overall, it’s okay, but I think you can get something with better quality at that price.
Jon B (verified owner) –
I have bought two of these leashes in the past 6 months. Both tapes have ripped in half. I strongly recommend against this product. The company does not stand behind its warranty. They do not accept calls or respond to emails.
BrianB (verified owner) –
Bought this for my 4.5 lbs chihuahua. Alot of other leashes retract too fast and too strong. Flexi really got it right with this model. The retraction is very gentle and smooth and it’s easy for my little dog to extend the cord with no help.
Very lightweight and my big hands fit into the handle with ease. I highly recommend this leash if you have a small fur friend.
tjosephb (verified owner) –
We bought this leash because of the warranty.. After the third use, it frayed and broke 2 inches from where it connects to the clip. Contacted Flexi and they told us it was because our dog chewed it but it broke so close to the collar she can’t even reach it. She does not chew her leash ever… Would not recommend.
Pepper (verified owner) –
The leash works great. I would of liked a bag holder attached to the leash.
Sarah25 (verified owner) –
I bought this for my 1-year old shiba inu’s birthday and she loves it! Again, only recommend it for dogs who have been leashed trained otherwise the cord may break in a few months.
Paisley (verified owner) –
Works good ,smooth working gears.happy with purchase.
dogcart (verified owner) –
I have bought so many of these retractable leashes I have lost count. They take a lot of abuse and very durable. A Little on the heavy side with solid retract spring. I like to armourall the tape to make it slippery.
2RottMom (verified owner) –
Not my first flexi leash. I have used them for years. They are extremely durable and they don’t get tangled while retracting back into the reel, which is not always standard with this type of leash. I have a medium for our 130-pound female Rottweiller 3 years ago and it still works great. Got the large for our juvenile 100-pound male Rottweiller anticipating his growth and the inevitable strength increase. The handle is bigger and heavier – makes sense – but it is the same fantastic quality. I will continue to use this brand – good quality, good price.
Matt Perry (verified owner) –
I had a Flexi retractable for a few years and decided to replace it when the tape started to look frayed. The handle on the large Flexi seems like it was designed for a small child walking a small dog, not a man walking a 70lb dog. Other than the handle design, I like this leash.
Flifisher (verified owner) –
I normally purchase this flexi leash model. After my last flexi leash broke, (spring), I purchased an inexpensive brand that lasted 3 months and and another brand that lasted a month. Spend the money on a leash that will last over a year. I checked the warranty and it states it has a 2 year warranty on inner parts. I will keep my receipts and see if they honor a broken spring.
Spitqueily Spittockowitz (verified owner) –
This thin little Band is so strong I can’t Believe it. It’s light weight. Works Great!
K8Reader (verified owner) –
I love this leash – this is the second flexi leash I’ve purchased in four years. The first is still around but was getting a little beaten up = time for a new one! My boyfriend likes that this one is black – my first one is pink (which I love). Anyway, this new flext works like a charm, I wholeheartedly recommend the brand!
Jude444 (verified owner) –
I purchased 2 of these leashes from petsupplycanada. I have an 8 lb chihuahua. The small one she pulled hard on and it broke immediately. The medium leash I bought for this little dog was so supposed to be strong enough for a medium sized dog. This retractable mechanism also broke with the first 2 weeks. Very disappointing.

TP Tina (verified owner) –
The leash continually twists and doesn’t feel strong. I also found same product at another store that was $12 cheaper.
TheRoyalPorter (verified owner) –
So I’ve been buying these for years. My dog happens to get really excited when we’re going for a walk so if I don’t take him out immediately after leashing him, he sometimes starts to bite it so I may have to replace it about once a year or so. Now my dog is a 20 lb dog and not that big but is a TERRIBLE walker. There’s been times where the Flexi is non in stock and I’ve tried tons of others but none retract as well, they get stuck or retract too slow so he steps over them and gets tangled or you have to physically grab it and feed it back in. This has the best retracting I’ve seen and they are low cost so I don’t mind replacing it once a year for the peace of mind that I get while walking him. Worth it every time.
AngieM (verified owner) –
I have my first retractable lease last for 14 years. Good quality. Just bought a second one
flexi leash (verified owner) –
I bought the flexi for my 57 lb husky. It was rated for up to 110 lbs. The lock failed on the leash and would not retract after only 2 months of use. When the lock failed it resulted in an expensive vet bill…more than $1,000. I would use this leash only on trails where you are unlikely to encounter other dogs. It cannot be relied upon to restrain your pet. My vet said she has seen many cases where these leashes fail with bad results.

I bought this for my rambunctious 1 1/2 yr old 50lb dog because it boasted on the package as being tough. I snapped it on her, stopped to blow my nose, looked up she bit it off and was long gone a 1/2 mile down the road chasing deer. I returned it the next day, $42 gone in a minute.
Lanai33 (verified owner) –
This works well walking the puppy. It gives him more freedom to walk but has the stop feature that is great.
Aubree (verified owner) –
I bought this for my Shiba Inu puppy. When I got him he weighed about 5 pounds and after two months is now about 15. A few weeks ago it snapped clean off on the retractable leash portion. Thankfully he had just stepped inside when it snapped but I imagine it could have been much worse if we were outside. I would caution anyone who will be using this outside in an unfenced area.

I have been using Flexi retractable leases for 40 years now and it is the only brand that I trust. I have never had one fail. After many years of hard service, I’ve seen the retraction mechanism start to get weak, but I’ve never had one actually break and I’ve never seen the brake mechanism fail. Money well spent because you pets life may depend on it.

I bought this a few weeks ago and it is great! It’s the first leash I have been able to use with my Catahoola Leopard Dog. He’s a strong puppy and all the other leashes we tried did not prevent my hand from being in pain when I returned from our walks.

This leash is rated for a 33 lb. dog, and it snapped while my 12 lb. puppy was sitting at my feet. This was the second time I’d used the leash to take my dog out to do her business. Fortunately, she was sitting calmly and didn’t even know the leash had snapped. I was able to pick her up so she didn’t run off. If we’d been at the park, she’d have gotten away for sure.
Niko Bailey (verified owner) –
I purchased about a week ago for a 15# dog, there was a an extra small retractable leash available but it felt too small in the hand especially for the pull my dog has.

Our dog chewed through the flimsy extendable tape on her second walk. We had purchased another one about 8 months ago, with the same results. We have had success with leashes that have the round, cord type extendable leash. Do not recommend.

Yanet (verified owner) –
I am disappointed. Bought the medium size to replace my old one which I’ve had for awhile but it had two breaks from my dog chewing when he was brought into the salon or the vet. Flexi made three changes I don’t like. The hook for the dog’s collar is about half the size it used to be, so a bit harder to hook, and it’s looks to be a cheaper quality metal. I first thought it was plastic. The locking mechanism is narrower and has a protrusion that digs into my thumb. Lastly, the gripper is larger and not as good a fit for my hand. The retractable tape may still perform well. Had no problems with the tape extending and retracting on my first use.
AlyO (verified owner) –
Lasted one day. Tape ripped before we even made it out of the door.

Frank143 (verified owner) –
Home from our fist walk. I love how smoothly it feeds out and retracts. I love how much more fluidly the tape passes over my other dog as opposed to string leashes. I have 2 issues though. First, the collar snap isn’t spinning on its axis like it should. That means the leash is not unwinding like it should. Is it going to wind itself up leading to internal stoppages? Second, and this is more important, when my 75 lb dog is moving quickly and I push the stop button, the skipping means the button is now smacking into my thumb repeatedly. That hurts. Maybe the snap issue will improve with some wear and WD40. Maybe I’ll learn to engage the stop button firmly and stop the pain of it smacking into my thumb. Maybe the whole thing just take some getting used to. After all, my other Flexi leashes are at least 15 years old. I’m not recommending it now but may change that in a few days.
Belle2014 (verified owner) –
I have 2 leashes, one for at home and one for in the car. I bought one of these for at home over 2 years ago and love it. It’s long enough that my dog can explore a bit when we’re on our walks but still easy to control. Recently, when my second leash broke, it was a no brainer to buy another of these.

Oh it made in Germany by way, not known for making junk
