Cancer and reproductive harm?

Works as intended. Break as often as a handyman at a fraction of the cost, but why the cancer and reproductive harm warning!?!?!

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Zero

Perfect fit for 2016 Mazda cx-5 Oil Plug

Research led me to need an 8mm hex bit and this was the right price. 1 oil change in a lifetime is good business for my Mazda.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Looks well made and should last.

Someone lost my 4mm so I just needed one more. It seems to match the clasps quite well and I see no reason why it shouldn't hold up. Would definitely buy from them again.

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Need this for the front brakes on your Ford Escape thanks to Ford

Thanks to Ford. Same goes for my 2006 Mercury Mariner. The tool is durable and should last 500 times longer than my sailor. I used to use 10mm sharpening but that was what would get the job right. Thank you amazon!

Pros
  • Constant test results
Cons
  • Unreliable

Broken salvation in use suitable for tools and equipment

Bought this to use in assembling the metal frame of the platform bed. It's easier to use a ratchet and a little easier than the L wrench that comes with the kit. The "hexagon" broke on the penultimate head of the bolt. I suppose it wasn't worth it and wasn't expecting a lifetime tool for that kind of money. I'm just thankful that I got through most of my project before it broke.

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Very expensive

started spinning after the second use

Attention! On the second use and without applying as much pressure, the hex head started spinning! Luckily the head didn't come off the bolt. Buyers beware, this is made of very soft metal. I used a standard 3/8" ratchet and didn't even turn it much before it started bending and twisting. I'll come back and go with a different brand...you get what you pay for.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • So far so good

9mm for Ford Escape NOT 7mm!

Bought the wrong one by mistake, 7mm is not suitable for wading. The rotors need 9mm and are not commercially available! I had to use my allen wrench set which had a 9mm allen wrench that took forever to turn. Lesson Learned: Watch the entire video tutorial and find the one with the drop-down tab! Quality is excellent, very expensive $7 for a piece, I will buy a Capri tool kit for $13 to get the 9mm piece I need and also have extras. I saved over $350 on replacement rotors, brakes, and brake…

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • The cable is shorter than others
