From Moosejaw:
"Petzl Reverso Belay Device (Spring 2008) The Reverso Belay Device by Petzl defines versatility. The Reverso may be used with single or half ropes to belay a leader, or one or two seconds in self-braking mode, also useful as a descender. For use with single or double ropes.Features: Weight: 80 g Certification: CE Multipurpose device: belaying the leader, one or more seconds, or as a descender. Attachment point for direct attachment to belay (for belaying one or two seconds in self-braking mode). Separation of ropes for easier clipping of alternate points and avoids crossing the ropes when rappelling. Grooved spacers allow excellent control of the rope for rappelling and lowering. Does not twist the ropes. For 8 to 11 mm ropes"

From Backcountry.com:
"The Petzl Reverso Belay Device uses a unique design to attach directly to an anchor's power point to provide a self-locking catch when you belay one or two climbers from above. When used in this mode, the Reverso Belay Device allows you to eat, drink, tie your shoes, and take some pictures while providing your second with a completely safe catch. Of course, this Petzl belay device works for belaying the leader as well, whether the climbing takes place on twin 8mm ropes or a single 11mm rope. The Reverso's incredible versatility makes it a great choice for multi-pitch climbs and a top pick of guides everywhere."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Given that the belay is the critical link to safe climbing, the Petzl Reverso takes the process to the next level in simplicity and reliability. When belaying from above, and attached directly to an anchor's power point, this unique device is auto locking in the event of a catch. Offering independent belaying of two simul-climbing seconds, the auto locking feature requires amazingly minimal hand management. Good for single or double rope technique, the Reverso keeps rope separate for easier clipping off at alternate points, avoids crossing of line while rappelling, and does not twist the rope. Grooved spacers at the break over point provide excellent control for rappelling, lowering, or power belaying the leader. Designed for all styles of climbing, this multipurpose tool is a must have."

From REI:
"A dream device for multi-pitch climbs on rock or ice, Reverso offers smooth-running belays and hassle-free lead changes! Self-locking feature allows the lead to belay second directly from an anchor point. To change lead, the second simply attaches to the anchor while the belayer moves the Reverso to the second's harness--the second is now the leader. Rigid keepers prevent the rope from tangling during rappels. In an emergency, the locking mechanism feature allows device to be used as an ascender. For use with 8-9mm double dynamic ropes or 10-11mm single dynamic ropes. Please Note: Petzl products can only be shipped to US addresses."
