I bought this to do maintenance work on the impressive Toro 1800 bought from Amazon. It has two issues which prompted me to return the item. First issue, it only works on right handed threads meaning that it tightens and torque sets in a clock-wise motion. The other issue is the stamped scale. It does not line up. This one reads between 5lb. and 10lb. when lined up to ‘zero’ after rotating the end of the handle. This makes it difficult to determine which it is. Although I’m sure it’s rather accurate to 4%, the quality of the calibration mixed with the omission concerning right/left handed-ness in the product description earned just a star.
I am a full time mechanic. I did not feel the need for a snap-on wrench at this time because i needed this wrench for the lower value foot lbs. The wrench works well and is accurate and should last me awhile with heavy use.
Was just what I needed that allowed me to finish the work I was doing on my car without having to bother folks to use their torque wrench. Highly recommended for the price, since I am a “back yard” type guy I feel this will do the job for me for a long time.
Works well. Reading the settings requires my reading glasses, but overall, I am very satisfied.
For a once-in-awhile use this is a FINE tool. I suspect a mechanic wouldn’t want to use it day in a day out, but for the price it’s nice to have around.
