    REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

        Great design, however doesn't fully deliver. I used in the ocean and immediately started to see corrosion. Will go back to using carabiners I contacted manufacturer, their only advise is to clean immediately when exposed to salt water.

          Fabulous product. I have all of the sizes and give them a gizmocity index of 8.9. If the keys are placed on a small ring, the s-biner makes a great keychain.

          I bought this with the purpose of using it as a key ring, so I could easily remove keys needed when running. I tried it this morning, and the design is such that the retentive lever easily moves, and keys came off the ring in my pocket. It could have been disasterous, but I found the loose keys deep in my coat pocket before arriving at work. Don't use it for this purpose.

          Comments about Nite Ize S-Biner Size 2:

          This is a nearly perfect keychain. I love how easy it is to slip keys on-and-off, and I love how easy it is to clip onto my belt buckle, bag, or whatever is handy. However, that same ease of use makes this a very risky keychain as well. I find keys are able to come off unintentionally throughout the course of daily use. It doesn't happen every day, of course, but enough that I would think twice about recommending this keychain to a friend. Instead, I would suggest that the manufacturer redesign the clip so that one half doesn't open and close quite so easily.

            A better Mousetrap. If you need to clip two things together - this design is so simple. No need for two carbiners if things are large. Thousands of uses!!! Spring seems like it will last forever.

                I love these. They are a tad fragile, the wire bends a little bit but I'm sure that one could hold over 10 pounds. You can use them for everything a normal caribiner is used for, just a little more neat. I'm buying more
