Bought these for sport climbing. Used them to lead and top rope a few routes and they work great. Took a couple falls and didn’t die so they do what they’re made to do.
These definitely do the job and are light. The only thing I don't like about the wire gates is that the hook area where the wire rests can get caught as you are clipping and unclipping. But, overall, these are great.
All around great QuickDraws. A bit cheaper than the other options and lighter because of the wire gate. I’ve taken them outdoors for a few months and nothing but basic wear and tear, I except to continue using them for a long long time. Make sure you tape them or mark them in someway! Very popular draws, several of my climbing buddies have the exact same set haha!
I've had a blast sing these baby's lighter than every other draw and for some reason just feels better in the hands. They've been through a lot and still look brand new
Getting outside and doing plenty of sport routes these are awesome. Easy to use, a good visual location on where to clip, and nice design. However, as I get into trad, I am beggining to take the bolt biners off of the draw. However, the rope biner that you clip into has a rubber piece that is A. connected into the actual quickdraw material and B. nigh impossible to get off of the carabiner without destroying the rubber. I don't need the biners at the moment, but if in the future I do want them off off of the quickdraw, it would have been nice to know that I wouldn't have to mutilate material and possibly render it unusable in order to get a carabiner. If you are just going to do sport however, these do that very well.

Great light and efficient design, 6 draws great for a lot of routes.
These are easy to clip and work great!
Bought two sets. Simple: these draws are great. The gates are solid, and they aren't heavy. Paint is starting to come off where the rope rubs after a good few routes, but nothing else to say except I'll probably buy more if I need them.
Easy to use. Good colors. Took a fall from well above the bolt on one and I didn’t die so I’d say it does it’s job well
