Helpful Positive Review
by Vossberg, Updated on March 26, 2018
I've been using Petzl's Reversos since they came out in the early 2000s. Works very well with thin double/half ropes as well as single ropes, thick or thin. In the so-called "reverso" mode, belaying two seconds simultaneously is very easy. When belaying the second it is autolocking. When rappelling it may produce a bit too much friction but it all depends on the rope you're usi...

It's a belay device that does what it should! Great! Makes it easy to belay from the top. Great friction for rapping too, I like it better than my Black Diamond ATC XP.

Feels more cheaply made than the ATC but has functioned just as well for me in use - light for trade climbers and superb for letting out rope for lead belaying. Rappels well as well, which is an underrated quality

i used this down in maple canyon for the first time and loved it. I liked it a little bit more than black diamonds version, but they are very similar. We used the reverse 4 on a multipitch route down there too and the self braking system worked great. I went up the first pitch and the self braking system ( leader belay mode) works great to get the second climber up!!! love this...
