I just bought the model down from this one as I couldn't see any difference. Both have the same load ratings as well as the crappy double back buckle. Why 5 star? It is just plain comfortable. That with the 10 KN loops and 12 KN haul loop and I think its perfect with the exception of the fastening system... again, then why 5 star instead of 4... it really is comfortable. I'm 5' 10" and weigh about 210. It feels as comfortable as my old BD big wall harness. That big wall rig is twice as wide. Yea.. it was a hard decision but with comfort like this I can put up with the old, antiquated buckle... but it was almost a 4 star non the less.

Just an additional note. The model I bought, the 70 something one I mention above has a gear loop on the right side that hangs right over the forward part of your right thigh. About where your pocket is on a pair of jeans. I notice that they have moved this loop back on this model... I've gotten used to it but I would prefer the loop back where it is on most harness's. I am thinking of updating to this for that reason. Still amazingly comfortable though.
