Amazing contraption, saves so much effort if you're just starting out on knots. Can't be attached midline, but that's an easy enough limitation to plan around. Very good at saving the rope, seems like the lowest impact way of producing friction. Some good videos online also reveal via stress testing that it's stupendously strong, good to about 2 metric tonnes even when old and battered, sometimes outdoing the rope itself, and has a brilliant (maybe unintentional) property of slipping the rope slightly under extreme loads and then grabbing, acting like a clutch to smooth out moments of intense force, hopefully reducing the falling shock on you, the rope and the device. Yeah a bit pricey, but so much better than climbing with knots that I'd categorise mechanical hitches as essential kit, and of the mechanical hitches, this is the cheapest (and a lot smoother to use than the spiderjack imo).

The Zigzag tends so easily on the rope, very smooth to descend, very positive hold on rope when loaded.Would recommend the zigzag plus with swivel built in if you use double rope system.I didn't but have since purchased a separate swivel. Works well easy to use. Great bit of kit.
