imo very good trap for the money. ive used for beaver and occasionally for yotes. when i got mine out of box most were pretty good some needed some fine tuning, but then again what traps dont need some

Rogue im north of Mt. Pleasant 100 miles 3 in. snow@24degrees here more snow southward been hit by heavy squalls so a mile can make a lot of difference as far as dukes pleasant to set for a 4-coil jawspread same as a lot of #3's out there lots of holding power they'll hold a 60 to 80 pound bear downside they'll hold a 60 to 80 lb.bear

The springs on mine are alot weaker a year after I bought them. I did base plate them and night latch them.
