Review on Capri Tools 1/2 inch Drive Extended Leverage Breaker Bar - 30-inch Length by Dang Esq

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Functionally good tool, but average workmanship

This article has been rated with 3.5 stars. Not quite 4, but better than 3 stars. The vortex has quite a game. If you like precision in your tools (like me) then you will be a little disappointed. The processing corresponds to the price. It's not a snap-on chrome finish, but for the price, it's not a snap-on either. In my opinion, the end of the pen that you press on is pretty narrow. Not very large in scope (extent). It should be thicker. This means applying a lot of force to the bar (like you would expect from a 1/2 drive) concentrates too much PSI in the palm of your hand. so. You usually squeeze this thing with a lot of force, and it's snug enough that it hurts a little in the palm of your hand. Functionally it works perfectly. The handle end design could have been bigger to relieve pressure on the palm and the finish is 'good' quality, nothing more. So good value for money. it is a "good" quality instrument. Note. After I bought this I noticed that the Cobalt 1/2 drive in Lowes is exactly the same device just named Cobalt. Check out Lowes to see if you like it, and if you do, Revain might be cheaper.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
