Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've only had 2 retractables so far, but this one outlasted the other by a LARGE margin. I got this flexi when Jake was a pup, and 7 years later, it's been chewed on, spit on, dropped, dragged on concrete, dragged through mud, dirt, sand, water, snow, etc. It's even been caught in my hair every now and then. I got a different retractable last year, and it promptly broke on the same day I got it. Even before it broke, it was having problems retracting the leash-string (so I'm standing next to a busy street, 20' of leash laying in the grass, Jake standing next to me, and I'm trying desperately to get the darn thing to work before the next car goes roaring by). That leash was thrown out, and the old black flexi was given kisses and apologies for being undervalued.
The only problem it has right now is that the button needs a little more force from the thumb every now and then, and that's only because Jake chewed it out of shape a long time ago. Most of the time it works great, needs no pressure at all, but once in a while it will stick and you'll need to repeatedly press it in to "work out the kinks" and I've only had to do it less than once a year. But other than that, I never have to worry about holding a broken flexi while Jake is running like the wind after a truck. It's actually kept me out of such pickles and it's suffered a lot of abuse. More than once, it's had to withstand the pressure of a 50-60 pound dog lunging at top speed, full strength, at the end of the leash (or whenever I've pressed the button). Sometimes I see the crack on the plastic body widening a little bit under the strain, but I'm still very comfortable knowing it won't break. It's one hardy thing. Too bad retractables just don't get made the same way anymore.
