Summary: Versatile for dog owners
Comment: Invaluable for various dog applications.
Keep on end of leash to quickly tether dog for training purposes, indoors or outdoors.
Connect two leashes together at the handle. Or three leashes.
Secure ex-pens.
Secure zippers on soft crates (depending on size of s-biner ordered)
Hang water pail.
Hang gear bag on chain link fence - keep clean and out of dog reach.
Keep leashes and collars together and organized in gear bag.
I like how easily items slip in and out of the s-biner. Nylon and cotton leashes do not get caught on the catch notch like they do on regular carabiners.

Summary: Great concept, flawed implementation.
Comment: I have long been a big fan of carabiner-style keychains, except for one thing: I didn't like having my keys looped onto the same section that was designed to open and close several times a day to be looped onto a bag, belt loop, etc. Therefore, when I saw these in my local Harbor Freight, I was very excited. It seemed like the best of both worlds: I would have one section of the 'biner that my keys would attach to, and another that I would use to attach to my belt or bag or whatever.
Unfortunately, this worked better in theory. As the other reviewer has noted, the springs on the s-biners are very lightweight, making it exceedingly easy (if not, in fact, inevitable) for the 'biner to come open, dumping your keys (or whatever else) off the device. Presumably, if you're going through the trouble to attach something to your person, this is not the outcome you are looking for.
Admittedly, these do have other uses, for things like camping and tying down loads in trucks and the like. However, if you're looking to use the S-Biner (in any size; I have at least 3 different sizes, and they all suffer from the same flaw), I would recommend looking elsewhere.

Summary: One Glaring Defect
Comment: The S-biner is a great concept, but the springs holding the clamps in place are far too weak. Key rings, car fobs and my Fisher space pen have all fallen off and been lost at some point using this keyring.
Until they can improve the quality of the springs to make them less prone to opening in your pocket, stay away.
