I have bought several reels of this rope in recent years. It is good value and great quality too. I use it as support rope for all my canvas tents (in place of the inferior rope that is often supplied) and I also use it as an arena barrier wound round plastic stakes for public events. It does not stretch or shrink when wet and is just the right thickness and weight for the job.Emma Raphael (14 May 2014, 12:16)
