FreeKey System (Pack of 2)

Not sure what I was expecting, I think something amazing for a tiny price considering I never actually paid for a plain old key ring in my life.Essentially as many have noted, this is one slightly larger ring with four smaller rings attached. The claim to fame is the "innovative" way that it has a "bump" that allows you to press on the ring and expand it on the end so you don't need to crack and tear a fingernail trying to add or remove keys. The pro on that is the idea actually works, without doing a video it is hard to just explain but the larger ring does have this feature so you can squeeze it and slide the smaller rings on it without damaging your fingernails. It is pretty neat. But the downside, the smaller rings (where you actually put the keys) don't have that feature. The design would make it hard on the smaller rings so actually adding keys requires you to...damage your fingernails.Now the plus is, if you use the rings to section your keys so that they are on the little rings in a logical way it still has a useful purpose. For example, if you put just the car key on one small ring, then when you use valet or drop your car at the shop you can remove and reattach the key using the smaller ring and use the handy squeeze technique as intended. But if you say use these as I think many would by putting say your house and car keys on one, work keys on another and little store fobs on another then it defeats the purpose because you are handing your house keys to the valet or auto shop unless you work it off the small ring.I purchased 2 sets for about $14. and planned to upgrade both my and my wife's key rings. It did work for me. Mine is now far less bulky using this but more so because I just couldn't remember what the heck a bunch of keys were for so they are now in a drawer and my key ring is a lot lighter. On the other hand, I thought my wife would want a small key ring. I will never fully understand women, I guess I shouldn't try. Seems she uses a large carabineer and the clip allows her to more easily find her keys in a (very) large purse. So I give this between three and four stars. Decent, but a medium step up form a free key ring. Not a game changer in book.

I got one of these about 3 years ago, and loved it. Lost my keys, got a 2-pack this time. The quality, the fit and finish, has really really gone down. The writing, which I think is laser engraved, has the lock emblem not even centered. The metalwork is not the finished polished high quality from before which I was expecting. The gap is huge now, whereas before it was just enough to squeeze one side to open the other. Okay, even while I'm describing it, I see why. There's no bottom bend now. It's definitely not like the ones in the pictures, so I've taken my own for you. Zoom in to read the text on the images, and you'll see what I'm talkinabout.Yeah yeah, it's just a few bucks, and yes, it's definitely okay and I'll use these. Why the rant? Because I hate it when something awesome goes downhill. I will definitely keep these and use them. Will I put a bottom bend in them first? You bet I will. Because wherever these are made now, they're just not doing it right! Also the width of the metal is a bit narrower than I recall. I mean the difference between the inner and outer diameters of the main ring. I'm okay with this because some keys directly on that ring didn't swing around it very well. Of course with a giant gap between, they'll get stuck too. One more reason to put that bottom bend back in.It really was an awesome keyring that I had before. That probably contributes to my frustration seeing these now. But I can bend these to be close enough.

I like the feel and look of these key rings a lot. I have two--one for my home keys and one for my work keys which I keep on KeyBak retractor. I never really take keys off or add new ones, so that feature isn't really that useful, although it does work well. Really, I just like the shape and feel of them. These are things I carry every single time I leave the house, so, it's nice when I enjoy using them or looking at them, and for some reason, I really like the freekey system.I epsecially like the little split rings that come with it--they're just the right shape. I can fit four keys comfortably on one of those split rings, which is perfect. I can't imagine having each key on it's own little ring--what a mess!!It's the perfect size to fit through the grommet on my Trayvax wallet, and to fit through the eyelet on my key-retractor. I really don't use it for its intended purpose, I just like it.So, this really didn't revolutionize my keys, or the way I use keys. Ask yourself--how often do you have to remove a key from your keyring? If it's a couple times per year, this isn't going to change anything for you. It didn't change anything for me, either. I just like it.

First bought my Free Key Ring set back in early 2017 when I first came across it in Amazon.com. I was immediately attracted to the design concept, material used, and the fact that it was U.S.-of-A. made. The Free Key Ring proved to be everything as described. Getting keys in and out was a cinch, and It has a quality look and feel to it. I have since bought additional sets to give out as gifts to family and friends who have been as delighted as I am.I also found out that the Free Key Ring use was not exclusive to keys. My wife bought a beautiful stainless steel measuring spoons set that was held together by a not-so-beautiful and not stainless steel ring that became totally rusted out after a short period of time. Free Key Ring to the rescue (see photo). The Free Key Ring has held those beautiful measuring spoons together throughout time, and many trips to the dishwater. Rust just doesn’t live here :-) And I’m looking for other applications for the Free Key Ring. Suggestions welcomed. Highly recommend this product.
