(More customer reviews)Can you believe it, REI was out of shock cord and tent pole replacement kits, so I ordered this one online.Surprisingly, it took over a week to get to me, to my mind far too long.
The contents are just fine, and worked just right, once I figured it all out, though.The instructions say to tape the shock cord to the metal wire to thread it through the tent pole sections.I tried Scotch tape, duct tape and masking tape, and the problems were twofold: 1) the tape section was too big to fit through the tentpole sections, and: 2) the tape wouldn't hold the wire and shock cord together.
So, eventually I just bent over double about 1/4" of the stiff wire, with a small section of the shock cord pinched in it.This entered the tentpole with no problems, and after struggling with the tape solution for over an hour, with my approach I had my tentpole fixed in about five minutes.
Bottom line: this product is fine, as none of its constitutent parts failed.The instructions didn't work for me, but I found a workaround that sorted out my problem just fine.
