Agreed. I'm thinking of when I tie down to my car's roof. I use knots when camping like this past weekend and that's fine, but don't trust myself to secure a load that could loosen on my car's roof.

Hooked this to the D ring on the canopy, placed a properly sized rope through it, attached the other end of the rope to the fixed tie-off point, and pulled the rope through the cam. So easy to use...

Totally agree with the DIY knots. I have the Knots 3D app and some of those knots are amazing and do everything this does and more. If the app isn’t free right now, you can get the same instructions...

Thicker braided rope, as someone else mentioned. However, there's a smaller one for cord on the same page.

I've had the opposite experience. Everything I've had from NiteIze (several items) has been excellent. It's one of my trusted brands.

Knots 3D.
This app seems to be free at least once per year.
Only $5 now so it's still cheaper than one of these.

Magnus Hitch: ABOK 1857.
Can’t find the other two, but here is midshipman’s...
