I think most of the issues identified here are common to the more expensive and complicated systems. The CDI people engineered out most of the failures described. It is extremely simple and very easy to install and totally appropriate for coastal/bay cruising. I did not want a furler when I purchased by boat three years ago, but put one on last summer after one day when I had to put in a reef, take down the jib and put in another reef, shake out the reef, put up the jib, put in a reef, take down the jib, put up the jib, and shake out the reef. Put it this way, I'm not 20 years old anymore.
