Review on 🔧 GearWrench 3-Piece Double-X Hose Grip Pliers Set - 82107, Black and Red by Rob Parsons

List this first but read on for details. Result? Poor quality and not up to GW standards. Didn't think I needed to check the reviews as this was a Gearwrench product - BIG mistake this time. Many buy over the years and are happy with their products, but the 1 and 2 star ratings have been accurate; I'm only giving this one 2 stars because it legally bears the GW name and is available at the "GW Store". They actually look like a fake due to their inferior workmanship and finish - VERY similar to the poor quality you would find from the Harbor Freight "Pittsburg" brand (but that's 1/10th their price). I'm not entirely sure why the product description shows images of the product with the yellow stripe, but it says the product is with the red stripe. Maybe it's their "seconds"? Even the description mentions that they are near handles. Far from it, because it is foam padding. I have found that over time they can become loose and twisted. Summary again? Poor quality and not up to GW standards. Also very misleading description, product presentation and over $100 "regular" price. Nobody would ever pay that kind of money for this quality! These will be returned.
