These are not Vise Grip Clips.

These are not Vise Grip brand clamps. Although the listing says they are Chinese knockoffs. I sent mine back and spent the money on the right deal. When you rely on your tools, a brand is money well spent.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Expensive

Not bad for the money but probably better for occasional than everyday use

So if these clips make you a living, ditch them and buy the Irwin Vise Grip brand. If you're a casual bracket user, this is just great. They were in my shopping cart and I didn't check the brand before purchasing. They're okay for the money, but nothing I'd recommend for heavy use. The brackets are not as strong as Irwin's.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors are here

Misleading name: These are NOT Vice Grip pliers!

I originally bought these locking pliers because the seller says in the title they are "VICE GRIP Locking CW/Flex Pads". You are not. According to the labels (see image) they are marked "AE PRO.USA”. I decided to keep this set of pliers after discovering the misleading description because they are of pretty decent quality BUT even close to the Vice Grips brand. However, it's not worth spending ten bucks to get them back. They are definitely worth 20 for a pair. I'll probably use them as a…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires socket
