What do you think about that?
This is what other customers say:
A really useful all rounder for both general belay and rope access / srt and can double as work positioning rope grab. Combined with a hand ascender it can be used for climbing, self-belay and is approved for rope access in a similar fashion to the Petzl ID. Usefully, it can be attached directly to belay loop or harness without the need of fiddling with an extra carabiner or can be used with the carabiner in various orientations. Note, does require a redirecting carabiner for rope access to satisfy the EN and you should have an attachment backup to a second line and fall arrest. All in all, a pretty useful bit of kit to have on the belt and my go to for easy of use and versatility.

So good with skinny modern ropes. Feeds well, is close to the body, no "cling - calngs". Tube method works as well as pich and best is to combine.
Weight is not a problem.
If you use a fat old rope, maybe consider something else or other rope.
