This seems to cut very well but the handles are a little flimsy hence just four stars

This Pex Crimping Clamp Cinch Tool and Pipe Hose Cutter, Pipe Fitting Crimper Tool Kit, was received quickly and in good condition. My first-time crimps of two 3/8" Pex and 1/2" Pex fittings were all successful, with no leaks. It was necessary to calibrate the tool immediately using the go-no-go guage, but after grinding a notch in the guage metal to use as a notched screwdriver, calibration succeeded.I was surprised that the crimping tool must be wide open to engage over a new clamp, with the tool arm handles being over a foot apart. I was even more surprised how much force was needed to squeeze the tool arms together until the ratchet mechanism engaged. My wife would be hard-pressed to squeeze the arms to this point, as was I. The greatest care is needed during this initial crimp action to keep the clamp positioned 1/8" to 1/4" from the fitting shoulder, as-designed. But I see no better tools available at a reasonable price that simplify this initial crimp action - as with a more extensive ratcheting, compound leverage tool. I've decided that's just how it is.

Essential tool for working on my sprinkler system. Easy to use in awkward spaces and doesn’t might a bit of dirt.

This has everything you need to make pex connections, either 3/4 or 1/2 inch. Connections are stainless steel, and they don't leak once made. Perfect.

This tool is amazing. It made the works so much easier. Using the right tool makes the difference in a job and it surely did

Both the crimper and the wire Cutters looked great right out of the box. I wiped off the factory oil and wiped on some new made in America. While cleaning and oiling I noticed that the factory finish of the metal was very very nice, I hadn't expected that. Nice work. I of course started out with the 1/0 cable, decided to see what it could do on the top end. The wire cutters were very difficult to get through the cable but we got there. The crimp was very impressive! I used whatever that really good brand is they sell here for lugs and got a crimp that I'll never have to worry about. The folks in the videos on YouTube were right, this thing isn't all right tool and should last long enough to pay itself off five times over. Almost feel like I got one over on the man.

The pex cutting tool works well, very sharp and cuts easily. The crimper is good but remember that the handles are quite short. Good for tight spots but require some force since the handles are short. A couple of pipes make easy extenders so it's easier to crimp in the not so tight spaces. Nice bag to keep everything together. Buy additional crimps as there are not that many with the kit.

Had my doubts about these cutter's but cut 3/4 PVC like nothing. Worked excellent

It's tricky to get the crimping tool to grab the clamp. It also takes a great deal of pressure to crimp making it hard on the hands or very difficult to use in tight spaces. The clamps and end product is secure for sure.

This is a fine tool for occasional use. I had no trouble getting good crimps on 1/2 inch PEX tubing though it does take a bit of grip strength. The handle is short so there is not as much leverage as there would be in more pro-grade tools, but if you are only doing a few dozen connections a day it is not an issue. Build quality is good and the tool looks like it will hold up well. The cutter is sharp and zips right through 1/2 inch PEX.

Crimps really well. Cutters are shockingly great. I was expecting to throw them in the trash but they might be the best part of this kit. Make sure your plans for cable sizes fall within the sizing.
