Review on πŸ”§ Irwin Vise-Grip PowerSlot Diagonal Cutting Pliers (1902412) for Precise and Effortless Cuts by Christopher Gulledge

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Definitely NOT higher quality than the cheapest pliers

I am very disappointed with these pliers. I really fought between them and a pair of Knipex pliers. I chose them as they are clearly marked as Made in Germany and also noticed that they are made from high quality steel and of course they cost three times as much as standard Irwin pliers. I'm not one to use these tools to make money, but I don't like tools that break. I regret buying these pliers. They're no better than the $14 Irwin pliers. I cut 12/2 wire (NOT live wire) and the wire cutters on it cut out a piece of copper wire! I've never had that with the cheapest Chinese. I am very disappointed in these pliers. I really regret buying them due to the claim of superior construction. If you want a higher quality pair of pliers, do yourself a favor and just buy Knipex or even Klein so you don't learn the hard way that the metal used in these pliers is simply inferior to other quality pliers.

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Low repairability
