QKA Crowd Control Barriers with 16.4' Retractable Belt 2Pack Stainless Steel Stanchion Posts Queue Line Pole Stanchions, Black

I bought these to use at events when I have a long line, or to indicate that I am closed. These work great, and are very solid and sturdy (they won't get knocked over) and they make my space more professional. They're just the right height as well.

These stanchions are great quality and feel solid once assembled. The cloth straps are not easily tangled, do not cut easily, and hold up well in normal use. A child played with them for a while without snagging or tangling the straps, which says a lot about their durability to me as I always played with them as a kid. The straps are thin but function well and retract very rapidly and smoothly. The base is heavy enough to prevent tipping easily during use. Assembly is simple, using one screw and a washer through the weighted base, cover, and post. The biggest downside is that the paint on the base metal is thin, but it appears to be aluminum, so rust should not be an issue when left outdoors. The strap holder is plastic, but it appears professional durable and well made. They don't give a cheap appearance and is a great value for the durability they offer.

Used once, no longer retracts the belt. Garbage.

The 16.4-ft. crowd control barrier is adequately sized, and it meets my needs for crowd control in a certain area
