Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
The tools are generally well-built and effective at crimping and testing ethernet cables. The tester accurately identifies cable issues and measures length, helping users troubleshoot home networking projects. However, some customers encountered issues with specific features, such as the crimper not automatically cutting through pass-through connectors and the stripper sometimes cutting too deeply. Overall, the tools are reliable and high-quality, but may have room for improvement in certain design aspects to enhance the user experience.
Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.Cat 6 RJ11 AND RJ45 Crimper
Would Not RecommendThe tool was durable and well made. However, it was very tedious to align the wires and proper orientation for crimping. A pass-through design would be much easier to use.
Ok
Would RecommendI like this product a lot.I think the depth gate is off a little bit for what it needs to do
Cat5e all over the house! works as described
The self trimming part takes a few tries to figure out properly. Instructs included aren't the greatest. Know what you're doing before you buy.
Mediocre multitool
Would Not RecommendThey will get the job done but better to use separate tools

Make a better product
Would Not RecommendThe cable crimper doesn't automatically cut pass through connectors so have fun wasting your time with extra steps. The cable stripper on the crimper cut too deep and sheared one of the twisted pair cable (yes even when being careful). No man can fit their fingers in the scissor handle, and the tester lacks any workable instructions on how to test cable connections. I expected much better from Klein.

Smooth as butter!
Would RecommendThis tool is awesome. I have been using the crimp style for about 40 years and the difference is amazing. It is easy too use and makes the process much faster. The results are a perfect connection.

Quality tools a must for quality work.
Would RecommendWhen I worked as a union lead forman in the area of comercial phone and data infrastructure builds. Back then I bought the tools I used on the job from Lowes. They stayed with me throughout my carrear. Lately I wanted to upgrade my "Ziply Fiber network in my home. and because I am now retired I needed to get some tools of the trade. I went to HM-Dpt but the punch down tool as an example distroyed my cat 6a cable. Remembering that I had originally bought my tools at Lowes I went back to Lowes onc...
Really works
Would RecommendI love this product it works like it’s supposed to and gave no problem easy to use. The best part is that I can reuse it as well for a very good price.
Perfect for Home Hardwiring
Would RecommendI recently purchased this for a home hardwiring project after a first attempt failed. Seemingly defeated I grabbed this tester which immediately was able to identify multiple problems. Using this I was easily able to determine three different problems in my first pass immediately. An incorrectly wired end, incomplete pass thru of lines, and a run that was simply too long.
