We liked the PAROWAU dog lead very much during the test. The carabiners made of high-quality stainless steel and the eyelets are of excellent quality and stability. During our tests, the carabiners opened and closed without any problems and showed no signs of wear. The mechanism worked smoothly and the structure remained completely intact. This speaks in favour of the durability and reliability of the product.
The length of the line corresponded exactly to the manufacturer’s specifications. Our measurements showed that the length remained unchanged even under load, which emphasises the robustness and precise workmanship of the leash. The four-way adjustable lead can be set to a length of 1.5 m, 2 m or 3 m as required. This makes it extremely flexible to use, whether for walking, jogging or double-leading dogs.
The grip of the lead was also particularly positive. Thanks to the soft material underneath from halfway down the lead, the grip was comfortable in all situations, even in wet or cold weather. The grip remained consistently good without any deformation or loss of comfort, even under heavy loads.
The adjustment mechanisms of the leash worked perfectly and allowed easy adjustment and stable handling at any length. No signs of wear or weakening were detected with repeated use and strain. The double stitching also proved to be extremely robust, which further emphasises the durability of the lead.
The dog lead from PAROWAU impresses with its versatility, high material quality and easy handling. It is comfortable and robust. Overall, however, it is an excellent choice for all dog owners looking for a durable and flexible lead.
