First of all "dry practice"

Assembly:
I first made a dry run at home in front of the garage, I can really recommend it to anyone, because if you stand with cold fingers in the snow (like me), you should know that one before lying down should unravel the chain sorgfälig and only lying down (in the right direction) and rears. If you do that, the rest is really a no-brainer. After a few 100 meters briefly tighten, done. Even the runtermachen goes smoothly.

Shelf life:
For durability, I can say this much: I have time * 60km drove it the chain in January 2, and subtracted and am about (mostly on snowy) road. One can see small deformations of the (originally circular) connectors, but does not detract from the function. Conclusion: For occasional trips to the snow chain is well suited for continuous use, it will probably not be enough (in my opinion)!

Other:
The manual is a plastic film, thus usable in the snow (if you still have to look again :-))

Summary:
- Good value for money,
- For my needs absolutely sufficient,
- I am happy !!
