Review: Got me out of bond where even "screwdriver method" failed - I never leave reviews but this got me out of a bind with a really stuck filter. For me well worth the $7. Nylon strap didn't tear even though filter had some jagged edges. Thin strap got around whole filter in difficult to access location on 2004 Dodge. I gave 4 stars for sturdiness because I'm not sure the strap would hold up with daily professional use, but they sell heavier duty versions for 4 to 6 times the cost. Worked great for one time use for me. I was impressed that I saw no cut or anything on strap with my use given tight fit and jagged edges on filter after punching through filter with screwdriver. I saw a review where strap came unattached for somebody else. I torqued on this pretty hard with a breaker bar and saw no I'll effects. It was a little awkward for me to use with the oil filter facing downwards on my SUV. But it got the job done after a lot of frustration trying to use the wrench off 1" bolt off K&N filter. I buggered that up because it was hard to get wrench or socket on solidly due to filter location. Tried other wrenches, breaking on, and even the screwdriver method, but this was what finally got the job done. The only area for improvement I would like so see is a tighter fit to the half inch socket. It kept slipping off because I was using it upside down due to my filter location. It is a little awkward to use due to strap and nature of design. I still gave 4 stars because I expected this awkwardness with this type of wrench. I think there are other designs that could be used with socket extension that might be easier to use, but the ones with that design were at the professional heavy duty price point. I think the strap flexibility actually helped me due to the awkward location of my filter. I would classify this as a "last resort" wrench due to a little awkwardness in use. Once I got filter broke loose with this it was easier to use a jaws type wrench to get it the rest of the way. I would try this before the nasty messy screwdriver method.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great on hard to remove oil filters
*by G***H on April 12, 2025*

Quality product. Grips tight and allows for getting to filters in tight spaces. It was a breeze to loosen the oil filter with this using a 24 in breaker bar
