Ideal for heavy truck axle nuts!

I bought this ratchet after borrowing it from a mechanic friend to use to loosen a heavy truck axle nut. I was surprised how strong this thing is. I especially like the retractable handle for extra torque. I use it regularly in my shop and I haven't had a single issue with the durability of this ratchet. I highly recommend!

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Trade in

False advertising of the best power and hand tools

I bought the 1/2 inch model. It is listed as expanding from 13 to 20 inches. The EZ Red product I see clearly says 12" to 17" expansion. I measured it out of the box and in fact, it's just under 12 inches by 17 inches. Those 3 inches make a big difference, but no other product seems to fit 13-20 inches, so I'll leave it at that. .the quality still looks good.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • -

Good ratchet but requires some training

This is a really solid ratchet. However, after reading the previous review, I took the time to remove the screws (size T30 - try to find that info) as they are only finger tight. He opened the head and smeared it with red sticky grease. After assembling and tightening the screws, the head is significantly quieter. There is a substance on the threads of the screws that looks like Loctite, but it doesn't hold the screws in place. Other than that, I'm happy with my purchase.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Something different

NOT 20 " as advertised, only 17-1/2 " like the competition.

Works well but not for as long as advertised. I bought this 1/2" ratchet instead of Ampro's standard T29771 1/2" drive retractable ratchet, which was significantly cheaper (at the time) because that description says "Expandable from 13.75" to 20". , while another says "Extended from 12" to 17 1/2", and a little extra leverage helps with what I needed it for. 2 inches. So go back and buy an Ampro T29772 1/2" extra long pop up ratchet with 24" extension.

Pros
  • Hand tool
Cons
  • So far so good

The platform is larger than a 3/4 drive.

Just received my 1" motor ratchet but haven't tested it yet. In the photos it's next to my 3/4" ezred drive for comparison. I've also included a $5 bill, 2" Proto-1 floppy drive connector and speed square for comparison. I work as a locksmith at one foundry and was glad my 3/4" drive wore out. So I also bought a 1 inch drive. I'm glad the 1 inch drive has a larger platform overall. It's about 3-5 pounds heavier. The 1" ratchet head is 2.735" wide and 1.346" thick. The outside diameter of the…

Pros
  • Power & Hand Tools
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Monster wrench, but buyers need to fix two things

A big, strong wrench. I bought it to use with tricky screws in places where I can't easily install an impact wrench in my project. I highly doubt most people will be able to break this thing. However, EZ Red appears to be selling gear repair kits when that happens. I should point out that after reading some reviews, some buyers have complained about the screws becoming loose and lost. So I decided to give it a try and in fact they were loose enough to be removed with just the force of a finger…

Pros
  • Socket wrench
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks
