Compact, comfortable, works in esp. hard-to-reach areas

Even if I use this for nail-pulling alone—in those tight spots where a regular-size hammer won’t do—it’s worth having around.The handle fits my hand and my husband’s larger hand comfortably . And it fits more easily into the utility drawer, to keep handy.So far, the leverage is enough to pound in nails for basic jobs. For sturdier uses, with bigger nails, I think it might take more of my strength. My husband reports little difference.I love the idea of the magnetized nail head, though it might…

Pros
  • It hammers fine.
Cons
  • The grip of the handle might not be suitable for everyone

Intially I stubled upon YIYItools by looking on amazon and basing my searches on prices and reviews, but now I can speak from experience.This tool is no exception, it's high quality with a comfortable grip, and it's already taken quite a beating. Ive had success with their power tools as well!With this claw hammer in particular, I've found so many places where it's short stature and heavy weight have accomplished tasks my typical full size hammer can't maneuver. They advertise extra ability to…

Pros
  • ‎YIYITOOLS
Cons
  • The hammer might not be that good at extracting nails

Great Hammer best in my review

This is a very nice hammer. I love the red on the handle. There was a weird cut on one of the prongs (see picture) but it does not effect the function of the hammer. The other side of the hammer did not have that issue. I don't know if this is something that is a fluke with the one I received or if this is a flaw that occurs on every hammer. Overall, the hammer works as a hammer should. I did receive this item at no cost in exchange for my unbiased review.

Pros
  • Now I have no excuse! Finally purchased a hammer that fits my petite hand 😂 It's great 👍
Cons
  • It might not be that effective for professional use

Fits my hand well. good for me

I needed a new hammer to complete a project and since was available, I ordered it. Here is what I found;1. This is a nicely constructed hammer and it looks very nice. The handle is comfortable and the balance feels good.2. I had a fence to take apart and so used the claw section of this hammer quite a bit today. It works well with good crip on the nails and no slippage. The curve of the claw provide lots of pulling power.3. I started putting up new boards today and the hammer does its job! No…

Pros
  • Great little hammer. Easy to hold in hand & use.
Cons
  • The hammerhead might be too small for some jobs

Nice small hammer!: my feedback

This isn't the large sized hammer that many people are used to. It weighs half a pound according to the description which isn't too bad. Still can do everything a bigger/heavier one can. Nail things in, pound stuff together, and pull nails out. Great for people needing tools but have limited space, already own one and would like a back up, maybe good for kids that you supervise on their projects. Overall definitely something I'd recommend because I think it's a nice and important tool to have.…

Pros
  • Perfect size to get the little house hold jobs done.
Cons
  • It might not be that easy to find replacement parts

Yup. It's a hammer!

From my perspective, you have 3 kinds of hammers - First, you have the professional grade that have some fancy German sounding brand-name and are engineered to be as amazing as a hammer can possibly be, given that, in the end, it's just a hammer. Then there's the middle-grade hammers that a "professional DIYer" would which are good quality and will last a lifetime. Lastly, there's the Harbor Freight variety that you can get for around 5 bucks. The kind that get the job done and will work for…

Pros
  • ‎1.56 pounds
Cons
  • The handle might not be that well balanced

Typical claw hammer - so why the higher price?

This is a typical claw hammer such as found at discount box stores so I'm confused why the price is nearly double what I'd expect to pay. For a few dollars more I can order a high end hammer that will last a few generations. As for functionality, the hammer is fine. I'm no judge of balance of the tool but it works well for me. I've waited a few months to share this review to see if anything changed or if I could determine a reason to justify the higher cost - neither has occurred.

Pros
  • ‎No
Cons
  • The hammer might not be that easy to adjust

Small and packed with features

A nice compact size made of high quality alloy steel that provides maximum strike. A built-in magnetic nail holder makes it much easier to start nails with one-handed operation The curved claw end generates maximum nail pulling leverage making removal much easier then a straight claw. This is the perfect hammer to work in tight spaces. Nicely polished finish has a rust preventative clear coating for years of rust free usage. A very comfortable ergonomic anti-shock handle offers comfort with a…

Pros
  • Power & Hand Tools
Cons
  • The hammer might not be that easy to maintain

It’s a hammer that does its job.

It feels good in hand, does the job of hitting things well. It’s a decent general hammer for a layperson to use when the need should arise to use one. It doesn’t feel cheap or like it’s going to come apart or anything .

Pros
  • Little heavier then advertised, but works well
Cons
  • The handle might break easily

A high quality rip claw hammer for under $12

I wasn’t sure what to expect from YIYITOOLS as I have never heard of the company but I ordered the straight Rip Claw Hammer and here are my thoughts.This hammer is awesome. It’s a one piece carbon steel rip claw hammer and the red/black grip is non-slip.The quality is actually very, very good! And for under $12, I really like it.Recommended!

Pros
  • Small and sturdy. Great for smaller jobs
Cons
  • The fiberglass handle might not absorb shocks that well

Good weight and craftsmanship.

This is an excellent Claw hammer with good weight and craftsmanship. The handle is fiberglass but the quality is good. Unless the hammer is used for industrial type work, the quality and design of this hammer is sufficient. The grip is nice and comfortable. Should provide g

Pros
  • ‎Contoured
Cons
  • The hammer might not be that easy to upgrade

Well made and correctly sized hammer

This is a very good version of a traditional claw hammer. The head shape, weight and sizing are all exactly as I expected. The handle is made of good fiberglass with a nice rubber grip. Fit and finish her much better than I expected for a brand I had never heard of before. All in all a very good alternative to some of the better down names out there.

Pros
  • ‎Alloy Steel
Cons
  • The hammer might not be that precise

A pretty decent hammer

Other reviews have said this hammer is unbalanced making them choke up on the handle. I found it to be just the opposite. Compared to my framing hammer, it feels just about the same. Of course, this is not a framing hammer and it isn't intended for the same jobs. But it is a nicely capable tool for general nailing. Well machined head and a comfortable grip. Good price.

Pros
  • Hand Tools
Cons
  • The hammer might not be that easy to store

Are these hammers made for children ?

Cheapest hammers ever, lightweight yes but other than that they are not for construction, they are made for the crappy tool boxes they sell at target for little household jobs.

Pros
  • ‎German
Cons
  • The hammer might not be that balanced

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good and affordable hammer

At first I was a little worried it wouldn't be a good hammer, but I've put it thru some rough times and it never fails, really sturdy and would definitely recommend for any one who needs a good affordable hammer.

Pros
  • The hammer seems to be a good one. It's well balanced
Cons
  • The size might not be suitable for everyone

Its a Great hammer - my new review

Every man needs a good quality hammer in his tool chest and this one does the trick. It has a nice handle and seems to be made from a good quality metal. The weight feels right and I like the rubber handle. I would like to see a waffle patter on the head but overall a very good well balanced hammer.

Pros
  • The bold red and black color scheme of the YY-1-003 hammer makes it easy to spot in a crowded toolbox, ensuring that you'll never waste time searching for the right tool
Cons
  • The hammer might not be that easy to use for people with arthritis
