Sports Outdoor Volleyball Net Accessory: Heavy-Duty Net Tensioning Lever Ratchet

Everything is great. The photo looks good — it shows a Snap Hook carabiner with a Thumb Lock safety screw. But I received a carabiner that doesn’t match the photo — it’s different. 😔

I bought "Champion Sports Official Olympic Volleyball Net" from you know where, yes amazon. Since the net didn't fit perfectly in the Outdoor poles in the park we play regularly, I purchased this. I was skeptical since 50% reviews were 3 or below. The net I have is quite heavy & it does pretty well to get the net to its best tension. Once set, the net is awesome for rebounds and stuff that you expect. I would have given 4.5 stars for the only negative I found which is - when releasing it doesn't come off smoothly at times (considering the tension or the load it has in the net).

The red fabric on the strapping came undone within the first couple weeks. The stitching was not durable enough to wratchet the bottom of the volleyball netting tight.

I bought for volleyball setup but it was made backwards with a short screw strap and a slightly longer strap on the ratchet side which is not correct

I received this and didn't even open the clear plastic bag that it was in. This is nothing more than a lightweight ratcheting cargo strap plus two carabiners that you can get in any hardware store for less than $10. I just assumed that for $30, it was much bigger because cargo straps do come in many sizes and the MUCH bigger ones can cost $30. I gave it two stars instead of one because other than the misleading description of "heavy duty" it probably does what it says. Since I don't want to get into debates with material engineers and lawyers, I am not saying what constitutes heavy vs. light duty in terms of stress loads. However, if you go into a hardware store, you can see what is called heavy duty and what is not and something this size falls into the "not" category for how every other similar product is labeled.
