These nuts work really well in most placements, although sometimes they're difficult to clean. I prefer these over BD or Wild Country nuts. I use them a lot, second only to my HB offsets. I've found that these tend to fix more easily than HBs though.

Decent set of nuts. However, I find that their relatively 'sharp' edges make them tougher to place (snag easier) and even more so to clean. I prefer the BD ones.

I got the whole set, awesome very durable, easy to organize and place, they stay snug where my freinds walnuts will come out or walk. If i could add somthing to these i would make the wire a little bit longer, but thats just me.

I've aided about 3 pitches on these things and I'm very impressed. When looking at gear to buy I was deterred by their price, but they went on sale and I'm really glad I have them.
These Nuts are so solid, there are so many placements I've made with them that I wanted to take pictures of. They often seat really well in constrictions, but sometimes a normal BD/ WC nut will seat better. More often than not though they'll seat better than a Stopper in the same crack. I'm going to add a set of Stoppers to my rack asap, but these things are great.
The color coded loops seem like they make racking a pain at first, but it's so easy to identify the sizes w/o looking at the heads. The only thing that kinda sucks is the Metolius curved hexes have the same color coding, so if you have the hexs keep them on a different colored biner or something.
The curves tend to get them caught in cracks when your trying to get them in and out of a placement, and it gets to be a pain sometimes. But overall, I'd strongly advise adding these Nuts to your rack.
