Not sure of the durability. Made of plastic so we'll see. But at this price point, I wouldn't mind buying a new one if it breaks.

Pros
Very flexible, fits any control column I have flown.
Cons
After 4-6 months, the multi-ball chain that provides the flexible adjustment, breaks. Specifically a narrow-neck point in the "dumb-bell" link at bottom of multi-ball flexible chain, snaps. Then the product is useless. Has happened twice now, so product has an effective life of 4-6 months. Can this design be improved?

Pros
I purchased a larger, bulkier version of the same type of clip and only used it once. This clip was far superior in accomplishing what I needed and enables me to see the full instrument panel.
Cons
None yet.
General Comments
Great value and works just right!

Pros
Too soon to evaluate durability/reliability. The yolk clip works on my C172xp yolk but found it works well to grab the right verticle hand grip on the pilot yolk to hold approach plates within scan but still let me take a look at my Garmin aera 560 mounted in the middle of the yolk. Quite handy that way.
Cons
Its a little hard to feed the approach plate into the wider clip with just one hand. Easier to unclip from the yolk, place the plates in the chart clip and then reattach to the yolk.
General Comments
Even if it breaks, I'd buy another one. They are inexpensive and I like the ability to use it as stated above.

Works great in the C-152.

Have only used on 2 flights so far, not sure what the durability will be.
General Comments
Seems to be good quality. Can't beat the price for a good approach plate clip.

Pros
The clip is a bit smaller and lighter than expected, but it grips the yolk tight and holds the charts great and the price was right. When I first opened the box, I was afraid that it was so lightweight as to let the charts wiggle and shake during flight, but so far they have stayed quite steady. I have been pleased so far.
Cons
Can't speak about reliability, as I've only had it a week or two, but it seems a bit delicate. I guess that can be a good thing as it is tiny enough to be folded down completely unnoticed when not is use.
General Comments
Item was recommended by my instructer to use for approach plates while working on my instrument ticket.

Does a great job. Excellent value

It's made of plastic so durability may be questionable, but for the price it's worth the risk.

Pros
It fits the yoke of the 152, and is easily adjusted to bend down so it won't block the instruments.
Cons
I don't think the plastic is going to hold up for very long. The clip that hold the chart is too small and is difficult to change sharts in a bouncing airplane
General Comments
Its not a unversial clip, needs a bigger clip to hold charts and a bigger clip opening

Pros
Great clip - easy to use, flexible and seems like it would fit in most planes (as well as other locations).
Cons
Clip part is not very large, which makes it hard to move papers during flight.
General Comments
Great bargain for the price!!
