This leash was ordered as a replacement for the exact same one - which was used several times a day for 2.5 years and needed replacing only because my dog dragged it through something so smelly not even soaking it in detergent and running it through the wash several times could wash out the stench... I love the sturdiness of this leash, the padded handle is super comfortable and the reflective thread is nicely visible when light shines into it. Such a difference in quality to the pet store chain back up leash I also own! Worth the extra few dollars in my opinion!
