Good value for a moderate user
1 year ago
I've used one of these poles for three years now. I mainly use it when I know I will be hiking on very steep or rocky trails, or I need to make one or more creek crossings that are more than a simple hop-over, so that having a third point of contact with the ground is helpful. I don't ever use a pair of poles at the same time so I liked that I could buy just one of these at a time. My pole has stood up well to moderate use. The grip and strap are comfortable enough, but I'm not using them continuously all day, so keep that in mind. The lever locking mechanism holds much better than the typical twist-to-tighten mechanism on inexpensive poles. I need to re-adjust the friction wheel pretty often to ensure a tight grip, but it's simple and only takes a moment. These poles are a good value if you don't require a pair of state-of-the-art carbon fiber poles. Mine does the job for me. I'd happily buy another if this one ever breaks.

Excellent trekking pole

I compared this pole with others, and it had the features I wanted and cost less. I hiked with this pole recently on the Dingle Way in Ireland. GREAT trekking pole. The mechanism for adjusting length is easy to use and not once did the pole collapse. I have used other poles but this is my favorite so far.

Sturdy and Comfortable

Got this one after returning another model from the same manufacturer. I find the cork handle to fit my hand well, the top of the pole is also comfortable when holding it on top. The cam locks are quite secure and I've not experienced any slipping of the sections when under pressure. I didn't expect the pole would be such a high quality at this price. Highly recommend.

This trekking pole only worked for 2 hikes. When on the third hike, it collapsed! We tried resetting it and it kept collapsing. Very disappointed! I thought REI was a reputable place from which to buy this. And says not returnable now.
