Just ordered one and it should be here Friday. I will report my impressions after I have had a chance to test it. I have heard nothing but good about this unique tool.
The fact that it can ascend and decender single rope is a great asset. And those who use it also say it works very well for doubled rope.
We'll see.

$450, great. I was hoping they would be under $500. :censored::censored:
I can wipe my ace for a long time for that kinda money.

Well, I have to say I am VERY disappointed in the Unicender. For this last month, in between snow storms I have done tip-and-chip removals, fruit trees off of 8 ft ladders and stump grinding.
And I don't feel it has made these jobs any easier at all. I was expecting so much more...but it just sits there in the truck, clipped onto my saddle, not earning its keep. :bang:
Sorry to all who are awaiting a report on the Uni, but I have only been able to use it on 2 small trees. I am pretty excited about how it felt but it is too early to make a true judgment of any significance.
But I can say, having used the Lockjack there are many things I like about the Uni far better. Simple rope attachment, no little screws and springs, attaches mid-line and works single AND doubled rope systems.
Will post when I have more info.
