Review on 🚦 DOT Approved Performance Tool W1498 Large Early Warning Roadside Emergency Reflective Triangle - 3 Pack with Case by Marfel Fekete

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Complete junk at this price, poor technology, cheap materials.

This productivity tool W1498 Large roadside warning triangle for early warning 3 pack with case Product is a complete junk for this price. Are they really DOT approved? I doubt it. The triangles are the thinnest hard plastic I've ever seen. It's so thin it's see-through. And these parts are screwed with metal screws. The probability that they will break during use is almost 100%. The base is heavy because it is filled with sand. It's basically what you buy - three cylinders of sand and cheap plastic beds. The end caps are simply snapped on, so that with a slight force they are torn off and the sand flies everywhere. These triangles also have a few awkward pinch points, so be very careful when holding them while trying to unfold them. Razor-sharp thin plastic will cut your skin and you won't even know what happened. Terrible design. The case they are kept in is complete garbage. It's cheaper than most packaging materials. The lid was broken when I received it. But in fact, if you push the box just a little, it will break, so it's not surprising. I would say that you get a good use of them once before you have to throw them away. They are practically disposable. I don't know why I'm giving these two stars at all - I think because they can save your life if you have engine problems on a dark night. But look elsewhere; This is junk product that doesn't deserve your time.

Pros
  • The open triangle measures 17.5 inches in length/width and 17.2 inches in height
Cons
  • No automatic
