A reel device includes a housing, a spool, a cable guiding unit, and a cable. The housing has a pair of spaced-apart lateral side wall sand a cable winding space formed between the lateral side walls. The cable winding space has a rear opening. The spool is disposed transversely between the lateral side walls, and is mounted rotatably on the side walls. The cable guiding unit is mounted on the housing, and is disposed in the cable winding space adjacent to the rear opening. The cable is wound on the spool, and has a distal end extending rearwardly through the cable guiding unit. The cable guiding unit includes a cable engaging member which is operable to move between an engaging position, in which the cable guiding unit applies a friction force on the cable so as to retard movement of the cable relative to the cable guiding unit, and a disengaging position, in which the friction force is released such that the cable guiding unit ceases to retard movement of the cable relative to the cable guiding unit.
