Terrible Canvas Tool for Arts and Crafts

After trying this product, I am extremely disappointed in its quality. The padding on the pliers is poorly constructed, making it uncomfortable to use for extended periods. Additionally, the tool cannot hold canvases securely, resulting in frustrating and time-consuming adjustments. The only pro I found was that it was inexpensive. Sadly, this product is not worth even that small expenditure.

Pros
  • Provides a secure and tight grip on canvas while stretching.
Cons
  • Padded design may add unnecessary bulk and weight to the pliers during use.

Not worth the pain or misguided ability.

This product works fine when you absolutely have to use it, but even with severe Rheumatoid Arthritis I've found it easier to use my hands and it's not great. The spring fails all the time, and while it's not essential, it's useful, so losing it in itself causes pain. I bought it hoping it would relieve the tension on the canvas on my hands and wrists but it was just as difficult and in many cases I couldn't even find a proper grip so it still couldn't be used. Definitely not a product I would…

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • Something different

Big performance for a small price

I had to fit pre-sewn upholstery over gun-frame upholstered furniture. It was extremely difficult to stretch the padding enough to attach it. My fingers had almost nothing to hook into, and I had no leverage at all. This tool saved the day. It was just what I needed to complete the project. Silicone-coated clips are securely fixed and do not damage fabric. The only thing that bothered me was spring. Just swipe it with your finger and it will detach and fly away. This was easily fixed by…

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • old
