The Eddy intends to improve on what could be perceived as Grigri weaknesses—those being the danger of holding the lever open or not clipping the two side plates together.

What others have to say about Edelrid Eddy assisted breaking belay device
"it’s a hit with durability, simplicity, and suitability for less experienced climbers. The gym is the Eddy’s native habitat. Belaying with the Eddy uses a natural-feeling hand position, very similar to using a tube-style device, and it feeds and takes in rope easily for toproping and leading, even with crusty gym ropes", Julie Ellison, Climbing.com
