Reviews overview
This is what customers from around the world say:
Great device, very safe. Top-rope mode is already locked, just take in slack.
Lead mode is harder to use, especially with thick ropes. Pay out slack too fast and it will overcome the spring tension and jump into locked top-rope mode. 9.8mm rope works well but can still accidently lock up when paying out slack, 9.2mm rope was significantly easier to pay out slack without accidently locking, but still requires good technique.
A featherweight climber on 9.8mm rope is hard to lower (in general, but especially through this device) since the device has a lot of friction. On 10.2mm gym top-ropes they may have to twerk a bit for their freedom if they want to actually descend.
