These provide excellent traction with minimal fuss. So far, no complaints.
Dislikes
The spikes on the Ultra are a little shorter than those on the non-Ultra. Something to keep in mind as you're considering options.

It is very durable and sturdy, great quality, it has never failed on me. I tried buying similar ones from a cheap brand and it was broken right away... These are very good quality and have a nice grip.
Dislikes
None that I am aware of...

Climb and descend icy trails with confidence. Easy to put on, nice long Velcro strap to secure them on, well-designed chains (unlike other cheap brands where the chains links open after heavy use), quality stowing away bag.
Dislikes
Nothing so far.

Excellent traction on packed snow/light ice

Size/weight/traction. They come with a carry bag, or just clip them to your pack. They stay pretty well put under your feet. Mediums slipped over my running shoes (Saucony Peregrines) though I probably wouldn't run with these, as they would put weird pressure points on your feet. Slipped over hiking shoes (Merrell Moabs), as well as my insulated boots (LL Beans) - All sized 9.
Dislikes
They do still ball up snow every now and then, not sure if any products wouldn't do that though. Not full crampons, so full ice climbs are still not recommended. That isn't a knock on the product though.

With mountain goat like footing I have yet to need them. My wife uses hers almost every winter hike though
