Review on ๐Ÿ” Precision Steel Squares Set - Kaufhof ASS-5535, Pack of 4 Pieces by Kenny Hrdlicka

Revainrating 1 out of 5

A square that isn't a square. Useless for me

I ordered these hoping they were square enough, arrived quickly, nice box, everything looks fine. Wipe off the motor oil, check my block 123 for squareness and none of them were square. There is a noticeable gap in each of the 4 sizes. They seem well made and built for heavy use, but unless they're boxy they're of little use to me. I already have a lot of non-square things. I'm a woodworker so I thought they might be good enough for simple woodworking projects as mentioned in some reviews. I see that on some projects where things like right angles and a certain amount of precision are important they might work, but not on the projects I do. I may have gotten a lemon, but the fact that all 4 weren't square doesn't convince me. I used them for a small project to see if they were close enough, but no, they're far enough out of place that I only found them useful as paper scales. Took them to UPS today to ship back. I've already ordered these as a replacement, they should be here today, hopefully these iGaging combo squares are actually square and more useful.

Pros
  • Very profitable
Cons
  • The list will be long.
