What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these parallel clamps for exceptional quality, reliability, and performance in woodworking. Reviewers highlight massive clamping pressure, even distribution, smooth operation, and precision parallel jaws that deliver superior glue-ups for panels and cabinets. The heavy-duty construction, smooth bar design for easy cleanup, and rubber grip handles are frequently cited strengths. Many customers own multiple units and expect them to last decades. A few report isolated issues like damage or weight concerns, but these represent a tiny fraction of feedback. Overall, reviewers consider the higher price justified by durability and performance.

Great clamp
Smooth operating no hangup and clamping is solid.
Very Sturdy
Would Recommend[Employee of lowes] I purchased these clamps for a large and complex workbench project. I had held off on buying them due to the higher price, but they ended up being worth every penny. They performed flawlessly and made a stressful glue-up much more manageable. The bars are very stiff and showed minimal flex, even under heavy pressure. The grips are comfortable and provide excellent control. One standout feature is the smooth bar design, it makes cleanup easy if glue drips, unlike ridged bars ...
Substantial low flex clamps for woodworking
Would RecommendVery well built and heavy, perfect for woodworking.
great clamps,
Would Recommendlove the ability to lay up face frames or cutting boards. And get good even pressure
Package damaged
I received my package 10 days after I should have. When I did receive it, the box looked like it had been ran over multiple times. Tape was the only useful part of the monstrosity I received. I called in to start a return. They told me to take it to the store. I bought 5 of these clamps on sale for $16 per clamp. If they refund me the $80 I spent I can only buy one new clamp now. Each clamp was damaged in one way or the other. The feet were missing on two on them. They’re still functional, b...
Terrible service by Lowe's
I cannot review this product as Lowe's does not seem to care about the delivery of the item. After multiple calls and online chat attempts no satisfaction has been found. Lowe's gives their customer service reps zero ability to actually help a customer. The best they can offer is to place you on hold and open another ticket. On a side note, the 18" version of these clamps are very good and Jorgenson should take their business to a different box store as Lowe's continues to be inept.

Jorgensen parallel clamps 12 inch
Would RecommendVery nice quality made product. Works well.
Great clamps, terrible shipping
Would Not RecommendThe clamps are great The shipping was horrific. There was no attempt at packaging. The clamps were sticking out of the box when it arrived, and one of the gray "feet" is missing. There is no way to contact Lowes customer support other than sitting on hold. Don't order these clamps for shipping

Great clamps
Would RecommendGreat clamps for panel glue ups of all sizes
Easy to pick up at the store.
Loved the product.
Great clamps. Don’t have them shipped
Would RecommendWhen I walked to the box sitting on my front step, the box was completely torn apart. There were little chunks or orange plastic on my front step. 3 of the clamps have chunks missing out of clamp pads, not where it should be an issue, but how annoying to get something brand new that is already broken.

received used clamps
Would Recommendthe clamps are good, but they were used, one was chipped on the outside of the jaw, and it does not affect the performance. It is a great product. my dispute is with Lowe's, I do not mind buying a second-hand product, but do not sell it to me as used... it is worth mentioning, this was not the first time I order something new and I received it used or opened box.

Beat up in shipping
Would Not RecommendI was excited because I got these for a good price on a black Friday deal. I ordered 10 of them. I picked them up at my local store and they were all beat up. Some were crooked, some were dented and damaged on the heads. In order to get the black Friday price, I had to do two orders of five each. I got an email saying both of my orders were in, but apparently only three clamps from one order and two clamps from the other order were in. As soon as they put the boxes in front of me, I could see i...
