These are great to have around even when you don't aid climb. I use mine a lot, for other applications like slackline tightening systems and even a few non-climbing things. Excellent tool.

Not much functionality, but a good thing to have around when you need it. Growing more and more obsolete though.

I absolutely love this device. The autoblock is extremely helpful, and because it is used just like a normal ATC, it's great even for beginners. Everybody should have one!

I like this for being a simple, small, and light device. It works well at what it is designed for, but be careful with it and make sure you're doing things right. Like Phil says, it definately has the potential to cause problems.
