It does what you wanted.

Hey, for the price it works great. You could pay more for one that gets the job done with less hassle, but you haven't. I used it, it worked and I'm happy.

Pros
  • Stainless zinc plated handle.
Cons
  • So far so good

Had to modify

I assumed there must be some sort of rotating sleeve on the outer handle, but it was just a rubber tip that didn't allow it to rotate in the hand. I ended up using a piece of tubing I had laying around to mount one so it can actually be used but it would have been better if it just came with one. There is a rubber grommet on the middle handle that rotates, but this is not the best option. But on the other hand, considering the price and having a second handle so two kids can work on it at the…

Pros
  • forged bushing end to increase life.
Cons
  • weak

Works, but not very strong.

The "socket wrench" is welded so you can't turn it with two hands and can't tilt it. Since the crank part is quite large, it will touch the ground very closely if you install it in a spot that isn't at the right height and/or don't place bushings on tall blocks. Also, the tool isn't very massive, so unlike my old lost tool, you can feel this one flex when you crank it. I'll keep this one, it will eventually become my replacement, but I'm looking for one that will work just as well as my old…

Pros
  • Speed key style design.
Cons
  • Big and bulky
