Review on πŸ”’ Enhanced Cam Jam XT Aluminum Tie Down Rope Tightener with Carabiner Clip by Samuel Bowen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Robust, reliable cam

I use them to hang a 5 foot Christmas wreath (very heavy) on the gable in front of my house every year. I mounted two eyebolts on the gable through which I thread the rope and attach the rope to the aluminum frame of the wreath at two points. The other end of each rope runs through two such kamjems. This prevents me from climbing the 18 foot extension ladder while carrying a heavy wreath. I just go up the ladder, thread the two ends of the rope through the eye bolts, and then pull them through the cam clamps (which are secured with the built in carabiner). Now I can put the wreath on and off myself. It used to be a two person job. I've been using my original set for five years now. and they are in as good shape as when the brand is new. So that's about 5-6 months of outdoor use in winter weather that includes (for me) both rain and snow. I highly recommend them.

Pros
  • All right!
Cons
  • Low maintainability
