“I certainly do admire the guy that made/designed these. It makes my load times so much quicker tying the ends up and doubling them up hoping the strap ends don't come undone. These are very easy to use. If you are thinking they won't last long because they are plastic, you would be very wrong. I have been using the ones I already have for well over a year and hundreds of uses and they still look fine. No chips, no cracks. They are just amazing. I am at the DC Cargo Mall today so I can order some more. I have four of them but occasionally find myself using 6 to 8 straps and I end up going back and forth to take the slack up and then tying them off hoping they will not come undone and looking like them poor suckers you see dragging there straps down the Highway. I wish I could post pictures on here so you can see my before and after examples.”
