Review on Wera 05004033001 Zyklop Ratchet Push Through by Pranav Osman

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It could be very cute, but instead he poops on the bed.

It *feels* like a good tool in your hands - ergonomic, very strong/heavy and looks like it will take some abuse and last a long time. It's also very thin, which comes in handy when you're short on space to work. A decent amount of teeth too. However, this is where the superlatives end. Where this tool absolutely fails is with the drive connector; the sloppiest connector I've ever seen on a ratchet. The socket selection does not matter; I've tried everything from Horror Freight to Snap-on and a few others and they all fell on the wrench in the middle of the day like a drunk drifter. I suspect this is due to the nature of the pass-through mechanism (which I actually think is pretty cool), but it's still not intrusive, especially when operated with one hand. I really wanted to love this wrench, but its loose connection to the outlet is too difficult to overcome, so it became a $70 paperweight in my toolbox. I assume he can still do some damage if I drop something, so maybe I'll re-rank him as the lowest performing ninja star in the world. Thank you Vera
