Company: Medalist

Product: Recreational rope

Background information: Sold for $9.99 the rope's braided exterior bares an uncanny resemblance to proper climbing rope. Its label even states it conforms to Australian standards and is suitable "outdoor recreational use”. Our tests showed it's hardly stronger than string and is basically stuffed with nothing tougher than tissue paper. It stretches and snaps with minimum force and should certainly NOT to be used for any recreational purposes.
