Wrenches Reviews

wonderful design, works great. i love the spoke wrench adapter and the t-handle function. highly reccomend this product. also the website for the tool company is very helpful and professional.

Urrea makes tools which are an excellent value for the money, much nicer in quality than Craftsman, and about the same price. These wrenches have a high polish, making them easy to clean, and fit much better in the hand than either Craftsman, or Kobalt. Nice set, and you can't beat the price. Lifetime warranty, but more importantly, pretty abuse proof.

This new tool is extemely useful for handling bolts and nuts of different sizes, including stubborn nuts with deformed heads. Very high quality, as usual with VISE-GRIP products. If you w'ont lose it-you can use it for life! highly recomanded.

Buy it. There is no substitute. While you are at it, buy the smaller size one as well. You'll be glad you did.

I bought the Westward Boa Constrictor because I thought it was like the Craftsman strap wrench. But I was really excited to see that the Westward set has a much larger strap wrench. I can fix my pool filter, my truck oil filter, loosen plumbing pipes on the job...plus the little one is perfect for tight jars. I was really suprised at the quality and price of Westward. I'd recommend it.

This will never replace a large toolbox full of professional goodies, but it is compact, stores all the sockets conveniently in the magnetic holders, is fairly heavy-duty and seems largely indestructible. I bought one to carry in the saddlebag of my bike, and use it at the drop of a hat... I find myself rummaging through my saddlebag to get the Wilton for non-motorcycle projects, rather then my normal socket set most of the time. Highly recommend for carrying when storage space is at a premium, but you still want to have a full-sized tool.

Let me start by saying that I purchased this saw a few days ago, used it for 1 job and have returned it for the Milwaukee 6521. The Milwaukee costs about $40 more but in my opinion it is well worth the investment. Buy it right, buy it once. As I have found in the past, Porter Cable tools typically have adequate power to perform the job but lack the finer details necessary to make them the top of the line tool. This saw is no different.

On a positive side, this saw has plenty of power and beef to demolish just about anything it touches. No doubt. Although I've seen some reviewers complain about long term issues with the keyless chuck, it seems like one of the best in it's class, especially if you keep your tools reasonably clean - a simple blow-off gun cleans it right up. The ability to flip the blade upside down came in really handy and operated without an issue.

Room for improvement. One of the most notable differences between the Milwaukee and the PC was the thrashing you get from the PC. The Milwaukee has a dampener (PC doesn't) which definitely makes a difference, especially when you have to use it for an extended period of time. The Milwaukee design is also much more comfortable in the hand - from the handle to the front grip, just a much nicer feel.

The second complaint I have is that the variable speed is controlled by the amount you depress the trigger. This is great for starting cuts but it doesn't provide a great deal of control throughout the cut. This goes back to the vibration of the saw - you're trying to control depression of the trigger while holding on for dear life. The Milwaukee allows you to set the maximum speed of the saw with a dial (at full trigger) and it also allows a slow controlled start using the VS trigger.

A few other minor details that really help the Milwaukee stand out are the keyless shoe adjustment (PC uses an allen key that is waiting to get lost) and the replaceable cord. The shoe on the Milwaukee also has a better pivot point and visibility. Spend the $40 and you won't regret it.

I've had this saw for about a year now, and it can definitely handle the work. Let me start by saying that I've never been a huge Porter Cable fan. Their tools are always tough enough, but usually lack the smaller "finesse" design features that some of the other brands seem to have. In other words, a perfect choice for a recip. saw. The blade change collar works great - a HUGE improvement over my old Milwaukee with the hex key. This saw powers through wood, nails, pipe without complaint. My only complaint is minor. The blade compartment in the plastic case doesn't hold long blades. How hard is it to mold a plastic case that can handle common parts? Overall, a great value for a saw with this much power.

Plenty of power. The blade change system is the best. A little weighty but overall not too bad. An excellent choice! The 9737 is tough, versatile & powerful.

This impact is great. I have a race car team and not having to use air impact wrench is great. We do not do hot pits. The impact wrench has loads of power. The batteries work great. I will get a few more for sure.

ya know, there are "toys" then there are TOOLS. This is a TOOL. I've already dropped it pretty far, it holds up like all dewalts. I've been impressed with its power - and I use this this thing as my primary impact. BTW, I repair brakes and axles on RVs so most things have rust, grime, and are well aged!! I bit more power would be nice but more power isd always better!! E

I use this cordles tool to pull wheels and cutting blades from my tractor and commercial mowers in the field. The Dewalt 300lb torque impact wrench is as advertised.

After many months of having to take my very resistant Bull Mastiff to the vet for monthly manicures, I picked this item up. This has been a great help. I found that the trimmings at the vet were very traumatic for both me and my dog, especially with the muzzle. Now we do her nails at home in the comfort of her own bed and she's much happier with this arrangement.

I've used this product five times since we purchased it and it's still running strong. I only recently replaced the batteries and the sander. I thought it would be more often considering some of the other reviews and her big thick black nails. I think the person who said the batteries died after the first use probably got an old set of batteries with their purchase. This happened to me with a scale I bought and after new batteries it was running fine. This kit is a dream come true and it only cost me what I would have spent on one and a half vet manicures.

A note to other large dog owners: If your pet is extremely resistant to any type of nail trimming then I suggest you discuss with your vet about getting sedatives for the dog. This makes them a lot more calm and even easier to handle. After the pet gets used to the grooming then the sedation can slowly be used less; until they're completely comfortable with the procedure without any medication. This is an immense help for the more difficult pets out there.

All in all, this was one great purchase. I have had no problems with the product and it saves time and money by being able to care for my dog at home. I highly recommend this item.

My greyhound is a bit timid, and when I first used the Dremel on her nails, she worried. After several weeks of doing a little bit at a time, she now falls asleep while I do her nails. It seems to mesmerize her. It sure beats clipping!

This little tool turned out to be easier to use than I expected. It's not real noisy and my dog doesn't seem to mind it. It's been a big help in keeping my dogs' nails groomed without wasting money at the vets office. Thanks Dremel for such an easy and compact tool!

I am a professional carpenter and I own 5 other Dewalt 12V drills that I am very happy with. When the impact drivers came out I was a little skeptical about their worth, but after using one once, I will never use my drill to drive screws!!! It drives screws so tight that you can hardly break them loose by hand! I am sold on using an impact driver instead of a drill to drive screws. The variable speed is great but I would like to be able to adjust the torque depending on the task at hand. It is so light and compact, It's great for hanging cabinets. You will break alot of tips but it's worth it. Overall it is the only tool for driving screws or fastners of any kind. I even got 1/4" and 3/8" socket adapters and use it in the garage!!

this impact is very strong ang very tough. I work as a toyota mechanic for a dealer and since we found out about the dewalt 3/8 impact everyone got one. ive used one daily for about 3 years and it still runs strong, i even bought a second one for home use. out of about 30 guys in my shop not one has had any problems, and they all got theirs from amazon.

I own a number of 12v DeWalt tools and have always found them to offer an excelent balance between weight, size, and power, so when I decided to buy an impact wrench I went with a trusty 12v again. I have not been sorry. It is amazing what this tool and it's 1000 lb/in of torque can do. For those of you that "must" have the tools used on Hometime or other home show of choice, go ahead and spend the extra money for the 18v gear. Then enjoy it's extra weight and size. Ever tried installing a sink with an 18v driver? Oh, you haven't lived yet. In most cases if you need more oomph than a pro quality 12v tool can provide, you need a corded tool. That has never been more true than it is with this 12v impact wrench. It can break bolts unless some restraint is used. How much more power does one need?
