Not Recommended - Pliers

A disappointing pair of pliers. The ends of the needle nose do not match. The incisors are not very sharp. Common problems with tools made in China. You get what you pay for.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Ok

Small tools for tight spaces - they work great

I love my tool box! I use it to fix and upgrade my wildcat traps e.g. B. to remove the back panel from a 1-door trap to attach a sliding door to make it a 2-door trap. Standard size tools are difficult to attach curved parts to traps, but they are perfect.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Nothing

Great price, great product!

I don't know how other reviewers give 1 star but I received my set on time. The package looked like it had been thrown out of a shipping center. The envelope was badly torn (the contents had slipped out of the torn area). A set of pliers and wire cutters is just what I needed, true Craftmans quality. I work on circuit boards and needed a small set of router bits and needle tips. I am very satisfied with the purchase and can only recommend it.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Some bugs

"Meh " Pliers Set

I like to use mini pliers when working with electronics. I needed a new set so I decided to try these. I'm not very happy with them. I was expecting the quality of the popular brand to be slightly better than the cheaper Chinese ones I was looking to replace. But they are not, they are almost the same. The springs feel cheap, the grips feel cheap, and the tool metal itself is nothing special. All in all, I'll probably leave these as they have a couple of pliers that I didn't have, like the long

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Good but not great

Abominations are good for hand tools

These infamous pliers will bend and be useless if you use them for tasks that require torque. Much luck. I bought these thinking people with their 1 star reviews but after a "mental incident" (like screaming when trying to use them before asking my neighbor to borrow a pair from him) helped me, to see the light. These are crappy useless plastic things that will make you question your sanity trying to use them for anything other than elementary school crafts. Maybe buy these abominations as…

Pros
  • Plier Sets
Cons
  • I'll add later

WARNING: questionable quality

WARNING: questionable quality About a month ago I was using the wire cutters included in this set to partially cut some zip ties and the scissors broke! I was blown away: it should have no problem cutting copper, let alone medium-hard plastic! It's crazy that Craftsman put their name on such a poorly made instrument. I had no other problems with the other tools in the set and was able to cut with the other cutting tool in the set. Unfortunately, I received this product more than 4 months ago…

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only

Bought with Craftsman Lifetime Guarantee

I needed a mini pliers set for fine work and electronics. The first set ordered here had a defective end cutter. They were stuck in the closed position and the opener spring wouldn't even trip. Even with the spring working, they still closed tight. I immediately exchanged this set here and the second one seems to work as expected. I will update the review when I use these tools. As for the complaints of others about the cheap quality and the impossibility of return, this is only partially true.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Not bad but not what I expect from Craftsman

I don't do much tool work but I build a set for the home so when I work with tools this usually applies to my firearms, a pair of needle nose pliers is a must. At first I was very surprised to see a set of 6 from Craftsman for such a low price, but after opening them I understood why. The action is ok - just ok. Some of them feel very rude. Some of them don't "jump" at all when you release tension. While this can be remedied with proper lubrication, which I haven't done yet, I feel like I don't

Pros
  • Consistent results when tested
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
