Great product for the price, some flaws

I love this product for the price. They work great and have held up many times, I have used them for the past 4 years. To be honest this isn't a daily or even weekly item for me but they worked every time I needed them. My biggest gripe with these ratchet straps is that the hooks on the ends don't flex and connect to the straps very well to secure items. Instead of the usual question mark shape that hooks back into place at the base, they look more like an L hook, which is problematic when trying to thread through the holes and loop yourself to attach to the strap. It hasn't let me down yet, it doesn't feel as secure as some of the more expensive straps with a slightly larger hook on the end. That being said, the carry case is handy for keeping everything organized together and I wouldn't use them for anything super heavy or extremely important due to the risk of failure, but for simple tethering purposes they do the trick. I've even used zip ties to ensure the hook doesn't slip off the strap when bending backwards, but again, this "workaround" is not recommended (and dangerous) for heavy objects.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Have doubts
