Other reviews said the reversing mechanism broke with minimal use. I thought, well, maybe they were being too strict, or maybe someone got a defective product. I was wrong and wanted to like this belt. It was the right price and shades to match my work attire. However, after minimal and careful use, the reversing mechanism and spring broke. I apologize to everyone I doubted. I recommend an alternative belt purchase. Most likely, it will break with accidental use. ToyRis, you might want to reconsider the source of the reversible mechanism. It takes at least that, as well as a lot of convincing that you have decided on a much more advanced version, so that I can buy a product from your offers in the future.
