This is the first slackline I've purchased, but I've owned and used a lot of different ratchet straps. This feels like a good quality mechanism and a sturdy strap, so as long as you don't let it get damp and rust, or let the strap get too dirty, it should last a long time! As with any ratchet strap, it is much easier to tension and release if you lubricate the mechanism: bike chain oil with teflon is good and should last a long time, but any oil is better than nothing.
I like the high-contrast orange color that makes it hard for bystanders to accidentally walk into the line once it's up. The included instructions show the basics of installing the ratchet mechanism, but don't include any details about the tree saver pads, the hand-hold upper strap, or tips that would be relevant to actually slacklining (what tension is good to start?). This info is easy to find online, but would have been nice if the included instructions had described all the parts of the kit.
The kit was neatly packed and came with everything described on the product page. The carry sack (string-type backpack) ripped the first time I used it (sewing on one seam split), but it's still usable, and it's clear the carry sack is just a cheap extra rather than an integral part of the actual slack line.
Overall I'm completely satisfied, especially considering I ordered one of the cheapest slackline kits I could find. Good value for the price.
