This is the leash I use with Freya. We've been using this exact model since February 2021 and it has held up through snow, rain, pulling, and now the heat! I like the handle, it is comfortable for me, it is high strength as Freya (45 lbs) is a puller and occasionally gets a case of the zooms and tries to bolt on me. I use the second handle frequently as we pass other walks or dogs. She either wants to play, get pets or thinks she is three times her actual size and wants to rumble. Regardless, this harness has provided me a lot of control!
