I also purchased the mondo clips, but they are just not sized right for me. The hand strength required to get them on and off was too much, and I don't normally have any problems with strength in my hands. My husband even has me open jars for him! I finally bought the red snappers and I love them. As far as I can see, the only real difference between the two is that the rod for the snappers is a little smaller. This means there is room for the canvas of the leader and the fabric of the quilt back to go in when you snap on the clamp.
I also purchased the red-e-edge for adding tension to the sides of the quilt, and that works much better than any other system I've tried.
