I bought this as my first rope and am quite pleased with it. I got the 70m. Lifetime warranty is a big thumbs up!

I have been climbing lightly on this for 2 years now, lead sport and occasional top roping. I treat ropes very gently. This rope has never sat in dirt and is coiled in a rope bag 99% of the time when part is touching the ground. I have only had to wash this rope once; it is in great condition. The dry coat really helps it repel dirt and keeps it easy to handle in rain and sleet when everyone with a brain is indoors. Lead falls on it still feel spongier than falls on my friend's 9.8 ropes when following. This rope does carry a slight weight penalty for its highly dynamic nature. While researching similar ropes the only one more dynamic was a beal rope, so this rope adsorbs falls really well, but will stretch accordingly far. The mid and 6-meter-from-end marks are great for rapelling. This would make a great first rope, not so great for leading harder climbs because of its weight.

This rope is a piece of junk. The sheath fuzzed up the first few times out, and now it picks up dirt and is a pain to belay with.
I've owned a lot of ropes over the years and this is the worst constructed rope I've ever owned. My friends Petzl rope is doing the same exact thing...
Search on the web, there's a lot of other people having problems with the Petzl Zefurrr...

I bought this rope over a year ago, my first rope. As a first rope it has been fabulous; we've taken it to dozens of crags, it has run through the belay devices of a small army of people, it has saved my life and the lives of my friends many, many times.

Toprope falls, lead falls, rappel, sharp edges, blunt sandstone, stomped on, dropped, pinched; this rope has been abused (although no jumar, no canyoning, no ice climbing). It's held up well enough, but now my friends are looking at the rope and making noises to me like maybe it shouldn't be a lead rope any more. There are some frays, and there's a point towards one end where the core doesn't quite feel right. I'm tempted to cut the end off (5-6 feet) and keep going full throttle on this puppy, but it seems like if I'm going to respect my friends this rope has to become the thrasher toprope/gym lead/anchor rope.

So, I feel like I've had my money's worth on this rope, it gets at least 3 stars.

But, I also feel that a rope could do better. It could take the abuse that has been dished out to it, and still inspire confidence in its integrity. So I'll try some other manufacturers; and maybe some day I'll come back to Petzl.

my first rope. after climbing on other people's ropes, i had an idea of how i would liek it to feel and this one has been amazing. it is very light and springy, doesn't feel like i'm packing a cable. it has been holding up great and shows not even the slightest bit of wear
