Works better than $20-$30 counterparts, but not perfect

The tool looks very solid, but the clip holding the cord still slips, when trying to make the adjustment. It's definitely better than under $30 tools, giving you a better chance of success. But still not without flaws. I tried doing 2 5/16 double highlights and had to try multiple times to get it to work. I ended up having to use a C-clamp on the die to hold the tube in place and expand it.
