[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very impressed with the ease of use of this spray. So far I have only used the training canister, but once I figured out how to get the safety clip off safely, it was super easy. The safety clip is not difficult to get off, I just think of worst case scenarios all the time and wanted to make sure I wouldn't accidentally spray myself. I initially used two hands to remove the safety clip, but after getting the hang of things, this can definitely be used one handed if needed. The spray pressure was very good, and the spray distance was surprising, even though I did read that it could reach up to 30 feet. Still surprising when you're using it, especially the first time. Eases my mind to know I can use this from a distance to deter a bear and they won't need to be close by for it to work. The training canister and regular bear spray canister are both clearly labeled and lightweight. The packaging says they will deter any species of bear, which is comforting. I will be taking this with me on a camping trip to Yellowstone and already feel safer knowing I'll have this spray with me.
