I settled on this set after reading various reviews that discussed it as being of high quality and sturdy construction. After installation and 100+ trips down the zipline by the grandkids and their friends, I agree with that assessment and am really happy with the purchase.
I ordered a cable that was 10 ft longer than our run required and was glad I did. It gave me the wiggle room I needed to wrap it around the end tree and then attach the cable to a nearby tree using a 2 inch tie-down strap as a come-along tool of sorts. Installation was made easier with two adults. We were able to create a loop at the end of the cable using one of the supplied cable clamps. With the loop attached to the come-along tool, we pulled the cable snug and then used the two other cable clamps to hold it in place. Then we detached the tie down device, removed the cable clamp releasing the loop we made, and installed the clamp between the other two so that all three were installed per the instructions. Once the cable was secure, the supplied turnbuckle tensioner worked great to tune the cable to our desired tension.
The trolly is well built. The seat base and rope are a tad flimsy but adequate. After several runs, the kids complained that the skinny rope was hurting their groin so we added a cushion of sorts (an 8 inch piece of a foam swim noodle) and that solved the issue. Also, the cable is only 3/16 inch diameter so it's a tad more stretchy than a thicker cable would be. It's great for kids (8 - 12 year olds in my family) but an adult or older youth would probably have their feet dragging the ground when in the middle of the run.
When I purchased this unit, I was content with the price. When I went to my shopping cart to check out, there was a $50 discount coupon that made the purchase a no-brainer.

Didn't install, but maybe should have. Side by side photos. What's under your shrink-wrap?!
I ordered this zipline kit from ctsc, then found a sweet "black friday" deal on a zelots kit and decided to compare them side-by-side. Since zelots didn't list cable size, but DID claim a much higher weight limit, I expected a thicker cable from that one. Nope. The kit parts on the Right, with the yellow trolley are the Zelots brand, which I kept, and regret. The kit on the left, with the red trolley, is this item, which i returned, and also regret.At the time, they seemed too similar to make a difference, so I chose based on a slightly heavier and seemingly smoother rolling velots trolley, and a little longer cable run for the same money. Ctsc had better quality instruction, with more pages, and more information, but I was seduced; Velots offered the attractive extras of a (not attractive) safety belt, and tree protector wraps, as well as a bit longer cable run for the money. HOWEVER... when the velots swage loop came free from it's inferior crimped ferrule, I now notice in the photo that the shrink-wrapped CTSC cable end is significantly more substantial looking, and may not have caused us the horrific grief the velots cable did when that one tiny part failed and dropped a child, in-flight, to the ground below.even if the kids would be willing to put on that safety belt (which they won't, and I have it installed low enough they can just put their feet down anyway) it wouldn't help prevent whiplash or bruised or broken tailbone, ribs, spines, or anything else from a sudden drop.I'll include the frayed velots cable-end picture for clarity, but remember its not the cable from this item!the hidden (shrink-wrapped) details matter. (oh, and it looks like maybe the ctsc spring break might be more substantial too)sorry, Ctsc, I wish i'd known what was under the shrink tubing before i sent yours back!

The customer service is as good as promised - I sent them an email and they emailed me back by the next morning.
It was "relatively" easy to put up. The assembly is straight forward enough. The hard part is getting the slack out of the cable, which weighs a ton. I did it by myself once, but it was quite a bit of work, loosening one U-bolt, pulling as much cable as I could, re-tightening the U-bolt, maneuvering a ladder around under the middle of the cable to lift it up, etc., to get it as tight as possible by hand, and then tightening down the top turn-buckle nearly all the way.
The second time I did it (we moved from one set of trees to another), I borrowed a ratcheting tool specifically designed to pull up the slack from a friend who also has a zip line. That made it MUCH easier, although its an expensive tool that you basically are going to use once or twice. So I would recommend just trying without the ratcheting tool, but probably two people to get it as tight as possible.
Ours came with a heavy plastic block attached to a thick bungee cord as the brake system. The plastic block has a hole in it through which to thread the zip line and then it slides until the bungee reaches its limit. It seemed pretty solid and worked well, but after about 8 months, the zip line started cutting the hole in the block wider. I contacted customer service, and they emailed back right away and said they'd switched to a steel spring brake system and would send me one right away. Sure enough a few days later it showed up, no fuss.
The zip line is a lot of fun. It was a hit at our daughter's last birthday party and inspired some friends to get one (the friends who have the ratcheting tool). And its pretty good exercise probably - like with sledding, once the kid has ridden down, they have to run back up the hill with the trolley in tow.
Grown-ups have been known to take a turn now and then as well.
I highly recommend this product.
Solid, high quality product. Excellent customer service.

The zip line hardware is of excellent quality, thick and sturdy steel. The trolley itself is heavy and solid with nice, high quality seeming rubber grips, and the trolley doesn't flip over even if there is no seat attached.Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2019
