Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Poor design, breaks easily

...I was going to put off buying a harness and rein set till I was in town and could have a real look around as to what was on offer. However as it happened my mother-in-law picked us up a high chair, you know the type the one with the chair and table. As it was it was missing any sort of harness to help keep a child safe whist feeding or shall I say feeding the floor. As it only cost £5 for the high chair I wasn't too unhappy but I would have preferred to find one myself that had all its parts. So it was off to our local chemist to see if they had any baby harnesses and reins in stock. The only one the did was your basic standard harness and rein for the price of £5.99 (I remember when these were much cheaper and better made). I thought the price was a little on the steep side but has it was for safety reason for my purchase, I... Read review

Advantages: comfortable, flexible and light
Disadvantages: twists easily

...I have used the Corax for years now. it was my first harness and there has never been a need to replace it. a testament to its durability. in terms of comfort the corax is well designed. cushioned on the inside of the waist and leg loops to allow the climber to sit back in the harness for longer periods of time than cheaper harness that lack the padding. this is a great advantage when climbing longer routes, after a few hours on the rock you can easily forget that you're wearing it. further more, the padding is very flexible so it does not hinder movement on the rock. if it couldn't get more comfortable, the padding is designed to be breathable, stop those sweat patches building up on those summer days on the crags! even better, despite the extra padding the weight is still low (510g). the harness is completely adjustable...

Advantages: Very Comfortable
Disadvantages: Non-Adjustable harness may feel different to a normal harness

...I brought this harness after looking at a number of different harnesses both online and offline, mainly becuase of the price. The Ziplock's buckle means that you no longer have to double buckle, which makes putting on the harness easier. I found that these buckles were also eaiser to tighten and loosen, and fitted a good range of sizes. The elasticated leg loops can be slightly unnerving, as you cannot tighten them yourself, however I felt that they we're still secure and made for a more comfortable climb, especially when wearing the harness for a long time. The Adjustable version of the Matrix harness includes a leg loop buckle for those who would prefer one. I found plenty of gear space was available, and these are very comfortable harnesses. I felt secure and have no problems wearing these for long periods of time... Read review

Advantages: Keeps you dog secure in the car, prevents driver from being distracted
Disadvantages: Can't be used as a standard walking harness

...~*~Background~*~ I have a Jack Russell dog, called Milo, who is almost two years old and goes almost everywhere with me. I very often take him in cars, but as I'm just a passenger he's able to sit on my knee. However, I'm currently learning to drive, and so I started thinking about how I could restrain him in the car, as I won't often have passengers to hold him for me. It's not only a matter of me being able to drive without Milo distracting me, but also of keeping him safe with me as a driver! Luckily I mentioned this to my partner, who said special car harnesses for dogs were available - which I hadn't known - and that he'd seen them in cars before. I went into town the next day, and visited every pet shop and supermarket, but no-one had heard of them. Finally I resigned myself to going to the national pet store, 'Pets At Home... Read review
