I use this device for tree climbing and it works well, simple , quick attach, lite, and easy to use. it's strong and works well for me.

I only used it for a week of two. It works and it is light weight. Seems to be Ok. But somehow I don't trust it, so I check it often while using it, which saved me from a disaster. The tiny spring broke while I was half way up, and the device let the rope go up or down freely! If I did not check, I would not be able to write this review!

From time to time I have to wash the glass on our greenhouse. I can walk on the glass on top of the green house so I tie a rope onto a nearby tree and use this thing to hold me from falling or sliding off. If I were to be doing a lot of tree work or other work where I was in need of something a bit more professional I would have purchased a more professional belay device but for my small job this works. It's not perfect but I'm still here. While up on the top of the green house I was thinking that the more expensive one that works more easily would have been better but to reiterate this one works okay. I attached it to my old windsurfing harness with a carabiner and I was good to go.
