  • What are reviewers saying?

    This is the second one in 17 years–the first one’s tape was becoming seriously frayed at a number of points.

    I tried the bestselling TUG, but it was huge for my hands and my westie.

    So I went back to my old classic. It is slightly redesigned, very light but very sturdy, very easy mechanism to control the tape, so overall great quality.
