Agreed, they are good for the price, you get what you pay for.
I helped out on a group exercise some time back and used a Bod, and there is no doubt in my head that its the single most uncomfortable piece of kit Ive ever used.
Personally I use a wild country aviator (I think thats what its called). Its a lightweight climbing style harness that has four buckles so its easy to get around the multi layers and sharp points. Yes it does weigh more, by a few grams, and yes it has extra buckles to attend to, it is however INFINATELY more comfortable than a Bod, particularly if you need it to do its job.
Its a personal thing though, some people like them, some people dont, I fall into the later category.
