Pros & Cons
Pros
Bought them for my jeep wrangler - 4dr - 2008 - sahara - jk. Love having these on my new 2012 4 door wrangler. Lasted 3 years on my jeep in hawaii. My daughter is very petite as am i.
Each handle has three straps and heavy duty velcro/buckles. The straps provide 3 attachment points so the chance of breaking the product is slim. They are very sturdy and have not budged a bit since i installed them. Each strap has three attachment po... Read More
Good quality and shipped fast. Great product fast shipping and great price. Never disappointed with smittybilt products.
Very simple to install, and work just as advertised. Easy to install even though instructions weren't included. Worked great on my 08 rubi unlimited.
Cons
Lightly tugged on it to set it in place and stitching let go. I'm leary of actually applying much force to them for fear another buckle may break.

The product serves it purpose in providing a source to grab a hold of for rocky trails.
I'd go with the lower priced option of the two.
There are many look alike products out there but i am familiar with the smittybilt brand.
Price
They are comfortable and sturdy and the price can't be beat.
If you are planning on getting it for your roll cage- nothing better than this - price is very good ( got for $15.
Note: amazon does not mention it in the description but the price is for 1 box and each box has a pair of handles.
Packaging/appearance
The only reason why it doesn't get 5 stars is because some of the edges were frayed a little bit when i pulled them out of the box.
Better fit if the top was off when installing on the rollbar.
Competitiveness
I have never been disappointed with smittybilt products.
Easy to install, even though instructions weren't included.
High end handles, as the first set i purchased of a differnt brand only lasted three months.
Luckily this is a no-brainer kind of item.

Ive tightened the straps as much as i can but they still pull in toward the middle when you grab the handle

It didnt come with any installation directions though so it took a minute to figure out how the handles go on since the handle itself is curved in such a way that it makes it appear as though its being installed backwards

The one thing i would have like to have see is additional velcro attachment areas as the straps were a bit too long even fitting over my sports bar covers
