How are these so cheap? The medium one is stainless and the small it says is galvanized pipe with a painted coating. I feel like buying these just to see/feel the difference compared to my buckingham one.

It’s easy to make one so cheap if you just knock off the original design and crank them out in China, without having them properly tested or certified. The manufacturer is listed as “happybuy”, that just doesn’t sound like a quality company to me.

It’s worth noting the last photo of the 7 is the isc version. And the proportions are off. Either longer or the solid bar is much smaller diameter.
Pretty cool that it’s water proof though

Wow. That’s not unexpected, unfortunately. The scary part is that there are people out there who will actually use those things, and possibly be injured or killed by them.

Holy shit. Even if it stays together, it’ll destroy the rope.

I'd rather pay double and support the industry, its manufacturers and sellers, PLUS know you are getting a real and high quality product, than buy that kind of knock-off crap on Amazon....

And our landfills continue to be filled with that crap when it fails.
