Disappointed with Channellock

These guys were tired and one of the notches broke after one use. I thought they were like Knipex cobras but I was wrong, very disappointed in Canallock.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Weight

Expected more grip

Design looks and feels cool. The locking mechanism works great. The only problem I have is the tangles on the head. They don't seem to grip and want to slide a lot, I was expecting excellent grip but they are still good.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

I love her! for hand tools

These pliers are awesome! They hold up well and are easy to adjust. Recommended for anyone who needs a good pair. The only small issue I have is that the handle is awkward to grip. The indentation serves no purpose to me.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • I'll write later

Channelock pliers in pliers

These pliers got stuck on first use when trying to use them in the smallest position. (I'm 94 and not that strong.) My son was able to open it by banging it on the floor. There should be a warning on the packaging! Otherwise they are well made.

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Empty

I'm a big fan of new technology so I paid to try this

I have some old 12" hex bolster channellocks so I wanted a 10" straight bolster channellock and saw this new design. My 12" wheels have always had trouble aligning their grooves so this looked like a solution. After getting used to pressing the button to adjust, this is definitely the solution to the problem. So time will tell if the adjustment mechanism will hold up over time. My 12" are so old I can't remember when I bought them but maybe they were 25 years old and while fitting has always…

Pros
  • . Happy so far
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Sturdy design, unusual locking mechanism

I really like the thickness of these pliers and the high quality silicone grips. Cross grooves cut at the top and bottom give the pliers a good grip and this 10 inch size can grip a variety of nut sizes well. The grip is much better than expected with this type of pliers. They open up to 2 inches fully open. The locking mechanism is the only thing I'm unsure about on these pliers. The button is easy to operate even with gloves on, but I'm not sure how durable it will be in the long run. So far…

Pros
  • SAFE-T-STOP prevents finger pinching
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

Big, powerful and easy to use.

This review compares these pliers primarily to a pair of similar sized Knipex Cobras that I used prior to purchase. I have been using these pliers for several weeks for various purposes as a commercial electrician and to be clear this review is for the updated model with the gray metal knob. Compared to Knipex, these pliers are VERY large. Both have a 2" claw, but when folded the Knipex handles stay closed, making it easier to pocket, while the Channellock handles are as wide as possible when…

Pros
  • 100% MADE IN THE USA
Cons
  • Available in white only

I've become a huge fan of these new SpeedGrip channel locks!

Media failed to load. This is my third review of this new range of Channellock Speedgrip pliers. This is for the 430X or 10 inch props. I posted a picture of this 430x model alongside the 428x model, which is called the 8 inch version. As you can see the grips are almost the same size, the 430x grips can be half an inch longer. The big difference is that the jaws of the 430x open 2 inches. This is enough to clamp the large wedge nut for the sink drain pipe, which is great for those who work…

Pros
  • CHANNELLOCK BLUE molded non-slip grips for maximum control and comfort
Cons
  • Not Secure
