Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
I bought three of these. One is the best cam in my rack but the other two quickly siezed up.

The design combines the best of single and double stems (you can still pull on one side).

Reviewed by: Scott ,  Climber

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
Ill do this quick and dirty: i have the 1.0 and 1.5 (blue and gold) units
the pros:
1.very lightweight
2.doubled sling is very nice
3.good reach--better than metolius
4.inexpensive
the cons:
1.cam lobes dont "seat" as well as some other cams (BD)--especially noticible in coarse grained granite, not very noticible in sandstone, consequently, it takes a little while longer to place these units
2.not quite as durable--ive noticed my trigger wires are much more worn and bent than my other cams of similar usage; the action of the cam itself is getting pretty squeeky, too. this is nothing a little lube wont fix for short term, but i dont know how well this unit will fare in a couple more years.

i had read in a "Climbing" magazine article that the trigger bars tend to slide upward, making the unit harder to clean, i have never had this problem, although there are holes for keeper slings should you feel the need.

these cams are indispensible for their light weight and design, but i think the durability is kinda lacking, and they dont place as well as others. granted i only have the two sizes i listed above, i have no experience with anything larger!

Reviewed by: Splitter Crax ,  Climber , from Yosemite, California

Price Paid:  $45.00 at Northern Mountain Su

Summary:
Man, these DMM cams are the lightest units you will ever find, and the quality is unmatched.
Cam Lobes and doubled dyneema slings are color coded on each unit. If you compare weights on these
pieces, some sizes are over 30% lighter than Black Diamond Camalots.

Customer Service:
Fantastic!

Reviewed by: Travis DeLong ,  Climber , from 161 Old Topton Rd.

Price Paid:  $45.00 at Shoreline

Summary:
The best cams on the market. I did more investigating then I probibly should have before I got them. I disided to get them and since have added a trango and a mitolius (they were on sale). DMM's are the best. They are light, compedative price, doubled slings for extention, metal trigor so they don't break, and all the cams, trigors, and slings are color coded. Just like most they are full strenth when fully opened. You can even get colored biners.
No complaints.
