Like most users, I've never had to use it in the situation for which it's intended, so I can't really speak to that. I can however give a brief comparison to most other pepper spray containers out there right now, and it stacks up very favorably.

The plastic holder has finger grooves, which is invaluable for getting the thing into firing position in the dark or in your pocket. It's compact enough to fit almost anywhere, although it adds unnecessary bulk if you put it on your key chain. The flip open cover is really easy to access, while still preventing accidental discharges.

If you're looking for something to keep your keys, you can do better than this product aesthetically with those common vinyl cased pepper sprays. However, I believe this dispenser offers superior protection because of its ease of draw and use. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that it's a bit too small for my tastes. I'd like enough in there so that I can give it a quick test and not feel like I've depleted the entire bottle.

got these for my wife and sister-in-law. it arrived promptly and seemed solid construction. I test sprayed it once and it traveled about 10ft.

Just wanted to let folks know, this is a rather smallish bottle. Another seller is selling a larger one. I think this one will be better for purses, jogging ladies, and so on. I carry the big bottle and my big mitts can conceal it pretty well but I don't think there are many ladies who could say the same.

From reviews I've read this stuff is supposed to be capable of chasing off grizzly bears. Like the other reviewer, I hope I never have to use it.

unfortunatly i have had the experience of almost suffolcating when my friend maced me as a joke with this product not to mention we were in a small room at the time with verry limited ventilation not onley was i incapacitated for over five minnuts but so was my friend fro the vapors this product dose its job better than it needs too kind of over kill but than again thats a good thing

I purchased this spray because it is dark a lot when I go to work in an undesirable neighborhood. I put it on my key chain and keep it in my hand until I get inside the building. And, I put it in my pocket, which can be easily removed from my key chain, when I want security when I am walking for exercise, walking in parking lots, ect. I tested it and it has a stream of about 8-10 feet. I am going to purchase some for my parents and in-laws. The economy is getting worse, and you better be prepared! Not to mention the dogs that run loose when one is trying to enjoy the great outdoors!

Very small and portable. This is a streaming unit, which isn't the best, but it'll do. I prefer the fogger type. But I bought this one for the portability.

nice size; good safety mechanism; good price; good name; getting 2 more for the others in my family.

Really Portable! Rated @ 5, 1 - sec. sprays, net contents 11 grams I believe. No case included, but there is the ball-chain loop attachment. I like the idea of the 3-in-1 formula (UV dye, Tear gas and OC), if you see a bigger bottle buy that instead. When held in attack position, to me it doesn't "feel" adequate compared to the bigger model (look at the pic; I have small hands for a guy). Don't know how well it works, haven't tried it - yet.

We purchased two the these for when we go hiking and camping. Have not had to use it hope it says that way, but it is nice to know we have some protection if we needed it. The size is great to hang on your pack for quick access, and the price is right. I would recommend this product.

I like to run (training for a triathalon) and got injured once running on a treadmill so that's out of the question.
Which leaves me running at the local park...not a dangerous place, but still. I am very happy with this
model. I used to run with a larger size of the same thing, but it was annoying and plus people looked
at me like I was paranoid or something when they saw it. This one is practically invisible when I hold it,
and works just as well as a larger cannister. I'm going to buy one for my sister, who lives on a college
campus.
