What Customers Are Saying
The wire strippers are described as a high-quality, durable, and effective tool that easily and accurately strips wires of various sizes. Customers praise the tool's comfort, sharpness, and suitability for use in tight spaces. However, some minor complaints include the lack of a spring-loaded handle and difficulty with the screw-cutting function compared to other models. A small number of customers also reported receiving defective units or issues with the warranty.

Would Not RecommendBeware, Lowe's does not honor the Craftsman warranty. Apparently "lifetime" does not really mean the customer's lifetime.

Either cuts the wire, or doesn't cut the coating
Would Not RecommendI have tried to get these things to cut simple wire in a ceiling fan and they either kick wires or they only cut half of the coating which results in me ripping wire strands during the difficult process of pulling the coating off . Very disappointed.

Screw & bolt cutting function difficult
Would Not RecommendI guess they’re okay as needle nose pliers but the screw cutting function seems to be very difficult, especially compared to a pair of Klein strippers I used. If it doesn’t become easier overtime I will be replacing these. Do not recommend.
