They are good for their versatility

They are good for their versatility. I had one a year ago and I have good memories. I got them based on my past experience. I will say they are solid but not very well typed. The mechanism must be precise so that the jaws close completely no matter how you use the instrument. It seems that one way or another, one side gets full power and the other side gets limited because the jaws on the opposite side are closing. The good thing is that you're holding the object most of the time, so it doesn't

Pros
  • One year test
Cons
  • Some problems

Multiple tools in one - a great choice

Suitable for use in the car. Several pliers in one package make them handy. Just note that they are best for two tools, but not perfect for any specific tool. I have these special tools in my toolbox next to my desktop. I carry them in the truck because I need a multi-purpose tool. Despite some reviews, they are not of bad quality. Just the opposite. I would recommend them to anyone who needs good tools that do a good job on multiple tasks. Especially where space needs to be saved. A better…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Requires an outlet

Good design but poor materials and workmanship

This tool is the same design as the old Radio Shack tool but differs in quality. The steel used and the manufacturing process lead to a reduction in tool quality. The larger one closes properly, and the smaller one with the wire cutters does not line up, making it almost impossible to cut the wire accurately with the wire cutters, and in some cases not at all. Larger cutters only cut at the very front of the cutting part, and even then it takes a lot more force than it should. The steel used…

Pros
  • Model number: 30582

Great space saver - Pliers

A few years ago I had a pair of pliers with wire cutters and I accidentally cleaned them with something that attacked the surface. Still works, but I finally got a shiny new replacement. It was just one of the pliers in my drawer until I got a job that involves a lot of air travel and I need to keep my tool box as compact as possible in my checked luggage. One less element to put in there. The size is just right for my needs. Haven't used large needles/pliers yet, although I expect they'll make

Pros
  • Package Weight: 1.1 lbs
Cons
  • No Instructions

Chainmailler's Dream

I have been working with 14 gauge stainless steel wire to make chain mail for a number of years and while the pliers are in it review are not jeweler's pliers (jeweler's pliers don't have "teeth"), they're great for gripping and twisting stuff that's usually quite difficult to manipulate with pliers and is by far the most comfortable pliers you'll ever use. The handles allow me to use them for hours without experiencing the same palm fatigue that I experience with other pliers. Light tension on

Pros
  • Item packaging dimensions: 11" L x 8" W x 5" H
Cons
  • Available in white only
