used both.

 

find the grillion better as you control and adjust it with ease, a little resistance helps in some ways.

 

find the postioner a bit small and fiddlely and not as robust, although it can take the knocks i'm sure.

 

grillions are only £20 on ebay, never find a postioner on there......the cinch looks good fun but havent found a cheap one yet.

 

Where is these gri gri for £20 had a look can't find one for that price they are usually around 65. Do you get diffrent models?

I'd definitely go with Art. I used the Grillon for seven years but replaced it this year with a positioner. Great compact device that is just as good as a Grillon and a swivel positioner makes it better.

What really hacked me off about the Grillon was that Petzl insists that it has to be used with their rope (£35+VAT for 3metres!) for it to pass a LOLER test.
