Tools and Hardware Reviews of Rubbermaid 5G78 FastTrack Fishing Rack
Customer Review: Delivers as advertised!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best Fast Track product yet. It holds 4 regular rod and reels perfectly and snuggly. Very impressed, great quality, and priced just right. Highly recommended.Customer Review: The carry option is cool. Wish it held a bit tighter.
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm generally fond of all of my Rubbermaid garage organization gear. It's on the pricey side, but looks good and has solid construction throughout. The fishing rack holds 4 decently sized rods and holds them decently. Some thinner rods are not gripped by the upper rubber-foam holders very well, so they sort of flop around some, especially if you use it to carry them. That, however, is the nice bonus feature I really hadn't counted on. Once you have your fishing rods loaded up, you can pull the whole thing off the wall using the handle and toss them in your vehicle in one go. That's a surprisingly convenient feature when poles otherwise get tangled.
I give it a 3.5 overall due to the fact that it's not great at actually holding all size rods firmly. I think it could probably hold another couple of poles if it was redesigned, too. Still, it does what it advertises, does it decently, and the handle feature is a nice bonus. I'm rounding up to 4 stars.
Customer Review: Almost perfect.
Summary: 4 Stars
I have the fasttrack system in the garage and need to store a decent amount of poles. I bought three of these.
I like the fact that I can take it off the track and use to transport the poles when we go fishing. It saves the poles from getting tied up during transport.
I dont have any problems with reels being to big, but it does take a little planning to get the poles on. (obvious after the first time)
Not a bad system, but not perfect. If you have the fasttrack system already, this is a good addition.
Customer Review: Good quality rod rack with limitations
Summary: 3 Stars
I found this module for the Rubbermaid Fast Track system to be good but with limitations. Overall quality of construction was excellent. This rod rack works well for reels up to medium capacity. For large capacity surfcasting spinning reels there isn't enough spacing between the circlular holders to accomodate more than one or two. Otherwise, this accessory is pretty darn good.Customer Review: Not so useful
Summary: 1 Stars
I like my fasttrack system of shelves and hooks, but the specialized gadgets are a different matter. My fishing rod doesn't fit in this at all as the reel is too big for the space between the holes and the pads. Odd that for a system that touts flexibility they'd make such an inflexible gadget.
