Have had one for a while, but I rarely use it--however, the few times that I've used it, it performs satisfactorily. The shining point of it comes when using it to belay Two second climbers (at one time) off the belay.

I've used one of these extensively for sometime (mostly guiding). I concur with the findings of the review. However, if I ever rappeled with it, I set it up like a carabiner brake (with the 'biners 90 degrees to the rope with the spines-up for friction). It is not apparent that this method was not reviewed by the comments made. It works great with a single or double ropes.

Why can't you belay a leader with it? not enough friction?
