Tool Brands Reviews

i just recieved this product the other day i have loaded it up and it holds alot. i bought it so i can have some place for hand tools in tool bag. the onlything is that i don't think the little spring clips will hold it shut very well. i would have prefered velcro or just a string

This product is made of very durable, heavy weight Duckwear (canvas) cloth with heavy duty stitching. The 23 slip pockets are of a variety of sizes and depths and will pretty much hold all your hand tools. The securing straps do their job and the handle makes toting the roll about easy. It holds a full assortment of plier types and a compliment of screwdrivers, ratchets, slip-joint pliers; there are three narrow pouches designed to hold nail-sets... this tool roll will fit your needs. I now carry the roll in a fairly new Bucket Boss Gatemouth Long Boy Tool Bag (06049) which I am extremely satisfied with also. The Tool bag has a number of interior tool pouches (which I also put to use), but having the tool roll eliminates 90% of the digging and hunting in a full bag.

That's just my use for the roll. It would be excellent for the house, car or boat. It is very sturdily constructed and above all practical. It is well worth the money.

These tool rolls are great. I have several of them in the house, truck, boat and shop. The open end of the tool slots face to the inside so wrenches and screwdrivers don't fall out when it is rolled up. The draw strings on each end are a heavy elastic with a quick-tie so the whole thing stays together. I'm usually not impressed with these tool accessory pouches (because they fall apart and never work well in the first place); however, this one is heavy duty and much better than a small bulky tool box.

I ONLY WISH AMAZON STILL SOLD THEM!

I find these really helpful especially if you are using multiple screw lengths or types. We also use them for wire nuts, nails and the like. SO why 4 stars? I must admit if your a one man shop you might find a parachute bag a better option but if you are part of a crew and sharing materials then this is your best choice

Although I am not too fond of the price that Bucket Boss is getting for these handy trays, I own about half a dozen of them. That's because they work so well!

The other reviewer pointed out the weight problem when over loaded. This is very true.

My buckets usually sit in my storage building full to the brim with assorted yet sorted fasteners. I can find what I am looking for rapidly by just lifting the stacking trays one at a time and giving a quick glance.

This set of four stacker system, with four compartments each, has greatly aided me in trying to keep my shop organized with the various screws, nails and brads that I use in my craft business. Each compartment is labeled and I know that the exact item that I am looking for is in the "screw" bucket. It has eliminated the boxes of stuff from piling up on the workbench.

Better yet, when I go off to a craft show, I just take the bucket with me, and I know I have everything in hand that I could possibly need. Plus, when the supply of a compartment gets low, I know it is time to fill it up, rather than hunt through the various boxes on the work bench hoping that I have more.

A great "investment" and time saver for me.

We bought this for our 2-year-old daughter's bathroom because it had a "pause" feature promoted on WaterPik's website as perfect for soaping up. When it arrived, we couldn'd find the pause button. After lots of searching Waterpik's website, we finally discovered that it does not pause but just slightly slow down the water flow--not perfect for soaping up and certainly not a pause.

When I first moved to my current house I was dissapointed to find that our area has very low water pressure. This made it so difficult to rinse my hair with your typical shower head. Then a neighbor told me about the Waterpik Shower Massage. I bought one right away. It amazingly creates stronger water pressure. So now it's very pleasant to take a shower again. The pulse and turbo features are just great for achy muscles and joints.

It is great! After a hard work out this shower head hits the spot. If you don't like it I would be very surprised.

the trimmer works fine, but the bearings went out prematurely. replacement was not available. so all they could recomend is to buy a new trimmer head, as in the snap on accessories like the blower,hedge trimmer,cultivator. the cost cost of any of these is ridiculous. so you might as well throw it away and buy a new trimmer. such a waste, motor is fine .

Having used gas trimmers before I was interested in a change. An electric trimmer, this time, less noise and gas fumes. So I ordered the Ryobi TrimmerPlus 137r. I thought the quick link attachments were a good idea, if they worked.
After ordering the TrimmerPlus and before I received it, I was concerned that I had just ordered a glorified cake mixer. I began to have my doubts about the performance I could expect from an electric trimmer.
Amazon and Tool Crib delivered the Trimmer (before the estimated delivery date) and as soon as I saw the heft in this Trimmer my doubts started to subside. I took it out into my huge backyard and garden. Whatever doubts I had about this electric Trimmer's performance evaporated. Not only does it perform identical to a gas unit but in many ways it's cleaner, quieter and a whole lot healthier. I had no problems dragging an extension cord around with the Ryobi Trimmer. The bump feature to extend out more string works easily and flawlessly. Trimming under plants not a problem with the straight shaft design.
Now to slip on the Cultivator attachment and chew up that garden. What a great maintenance tool. I am very satisfied. Definitely a superior product.

I've had this unit for several years now, and it has performed flawlessly. It's quite powerful, much more so than you might expect from an electric. It tears through the toughest stuff my property has to offer. If this won't go through it, I know it's time for the Husky chainsaw. The motor is at the top of the handle, as with gas powered models, which helps with the balance.

The variety of attachments available are a nice plus. I've got the edger and just ordered the blower/vac.

I have only 2 complaints about it. The first is that the unit's overall length isn't adjustable; I'm 5' 9" and I find the unit a little too long to allow the head to lay flat - it tilts slightly up in front. This isn't a major problem however. Perhaps this isn't an issue with the 132r, which is the curved-shaft version, but I've heard that staight shafts are more reliable. Second, this is a fairly loud machine. I don't know if it's as loud as a gas-powered model, but it is louder than I expected (and hoped for). It's not the motor that makes so much noise, it's the head and, to a lesser extent, the shaft mechanism. I sometimes wear ear protection if I'm going to be trimming for a long time; the rather high-pitched drone of the trimmer's head can get to you after a while.

Bottom line: if you don't mind dragging an extenstion cord around (get a good one, or you may cut right through it with the trimmer), this is an excellent alternative to a gas model.

I got the Gatemouth bag as a gift from my son two years ago. The bag looks great, has lots of pockets and sure seems strong. I use it to carry emergency tools in the truck of the car. I have not overloaded the bag. I was very disappointed when the stitching on one entire end panal failed and the bag literally fell apart. I've tried to find warranty info or company contact for this item but have not been able to find anything. The company is owner by Fiskars but I find no support for the Bucket Boss line on their web site. There's a possibility that I had a bad bag. I liked the bag so much while it functioned that I am ordering a replacement. I hope this was just a fluke. The design sure seems just what I need. The company really should stand behind the product though.
Caveat Emptor I guess..

Lots of space to accomodate stuff. Strong, lightweight and useful. But you can get a Sears version fo about half the price.

I have owned this bag for over 3 years. It is way overloaded (so much that I don't even worry about zipping it up), and has held up very well. Only two small problems (due to my overloading): the clips that hold the stap to the rings on the bag broke, and the metal bar that holds the shape of the main opening has come out of the end seam. This bag does hold a lot of "stuff." It has held up very well despite my abusing and overloading (it weighs about 80 lbs with all my stuff.) Well worth the buy!

I see the picture on the front page, and it HAS a picture of cables in the bag. At walmart there are bags with cables for $18.00. I am returning these, the bags are nice, but empty!

This Bucket Boss is very functional for automotive use and is a top quality construction. I recommend their products!

I think it's great. I am thinking about purchasing another one.

I don't know what the person with the one star was talking about but was so wrong. This alarm is very loud. Not only is it loud when it goes off but the light flashes on the one that is going off. I am actually gonna order another one. Best one I had ever since I already had tried several! Its a must to get!

I'm coming back to order these again, after having a set for years. Yes, when the battery is low it chirps...thank God !! A smoke alarm with dead batteries is useless. And I'd certainly rather have a LOUD alarm and know I have a problem than an alarm with a low warning sound I don't hear !! It's been reliable in the past and I feel it's a good monitor.

This is a great smoke and CO alarm. It seems to be very sensitive to smoke...particularly when I burn toast. However, it has a convenient silencer button. I always change the battery every 6 months and have not had any problems with it.<br /> <br /> The other person who reviewed this didn't think it was loud enough...I think they need a hearing aid.

This should really be called a hatchet. I bought one primarily to make kindling out of logs that had alread been split up. The edge failed to penetrate the wood well, either because it was too dull or because of the material. The wedge shape was too narrow to split the wood off. I'm going back to my trusty metal hatchet.

This is a great hatchet for camping. It is the same as the Gerber Sport Axe (same company). The big difference is the price: Gerber $50, Fiskars $20. Well Gerber also comes with a little blade cover. By the way check your local Lowes for this Hatchet. It is $19.99. This axe is a must have for backpacking, paddling, or car camping.

I got one of these axes for my dad for Christmas and it was worth every penny. He's getting older but he still has to split wood for his wood stove to heat his house, so I thought it would be a practical gift. He loves it and even I tried, on Christmas day and many times after that. If you split would and are tried of your handles breaking, dull blades, and blistered hands, get this axe.

Hate to rain on the parade but this is not a fantastic tool accessory. An excellent tool or tool accessory allows you to focus on your work instead of the tool and should bring ease and or precision to the process. First of all this table will take some time to set up and even more time to adjust the side tables to be level and flush with the main table. Next you will note that the included miter quage is useless for any precision work (ie. any work with a router). It has significant play in its (very shallow) slot, so cuts will not be smooth or square. You cannot use your table saw miter guage either because the slot is not standard. Next you will find that the router attachment hardware is cumbersome and of questionable design. In the name of building a universal table Vermont American has designed a system of four metal clips which grip your router in a precarious way. As far as tightening goes, there are no ergonomic handles or wing nuts. You will be tightening the four screws with your socket wrench and a deep socket, or a crescent wrench. Since there is so much going on you will have to flip the entire table upside down to install or uninstall the router, which will be even less convenient if you have the fence installed, leading to my next gripe: the fence when removed leaves you with seven pieces to keep track of until you reinstall. There is nothing convenient or quick about this table. And one more thing- if you own a Porter-Cable plunge router, don't even think of buying this table. The clips hold your router in such a way as to bind its face- making the plunging action almost impossible. The power switch is a nice feature, and the fence is decent, but you can build a far better table in just a few hours, so don't bother with this.

I just purchased this router table, so I have not used it too much yet. However, I think this router table does a nice job. The slide out on the fence turns the router into a jointer...very useful. It took about an hour to setup, and its not the highest quality, but, for under $100, it will do the job for most weekend woodworkers.

I wasn't sure about purchasing the Vermont American Deluxe Router table because I'm just begining as a woodworker, but the new table made it so easy. Now I'm able to deal with complex shapes and create things I would have never even attempted before.

I'm always looking for tools that make things easier, and if they make me look like I've been woodworking for years at the same time, it's even better. I think this is a product that's perfect for anyone, a beginner or a seasoned pro.

I like the mobility the rocker provides as opposed to a stationary garden seat. It expands the area within reach and requires fewer repositionings than a non-rocking weeding seat. Though the seat is adjustable I think the maximum height is still a bit short for my 5'8" frame. Another 2 inches in height would have made this the perfect garden seat. It also takes a bit of practice before you feel completely stable on the seat.

I bought this garden seat after watching a segment on Gardening By the Yard with Paul James. I love it. It helps my back when I'm pulling weeds and planting. I even use it for other purposes, like keeping my seat dry when I'm playing in the sandbox with my son. It's adjustable and truly does rock when you move. My only complaint, and it's minor, is that sometimes, because it's so lightweight, it's a little unstable. But after some practice, you'll love it, too.
