The only minor thing for me was the price. A bit pricey but I also learned a long time ago that you get what you pay for. Cheap tools can be a good option for those who will only use them once a year. But for those who rely on their tools for a living, they were definitely worth the extra pennies! Perhaps the biggest plus for me are the ergonomic handles. They are much closer together in the grip position than most. And the ability to set the working width is also more precise and doesn't "fall" out of the slot once set where you want them. A word of caution though. The teeth on the jaws are ground very fine, which is fine in most cases, but you probably don't want to use them to install anything like chrome plumbing!
