What Customers Are Saying

The product is a mixed bag - it works well for some users but many find it difficult to use, with issues like not cutting all the way through the pipe, leaving jagged or uneven cuts, or requiring a lot of effort. Some recommend spending more on a higher-quality, scissor-style or ratcheting cutter for cleaner, more consistent cuts, especially for larger or more complex projects. Overall, it may be a budget-friendly option that suits some users, but many suggest investing in a more robust cutter for better results.

I had to replace a water pipe in a tight space. Cutting the pex with this tool made it very simple and I was able to save a lot from hiring a plumber.

Great tool! Built to last!

Would Recommend

I was able to use these in a tight spot to cut pex tubing. They worked very well. Suprisingly easy to use in a tight area. I recommend this brand because they are well made and look like they will last a long time. You will be very happy with this purchase. Bonus that they were so reasonably priced.

Not useful for 1/2"

Would Not Recommend

This thing claims to work for 1/2" pex tubing, but that only works if you stick your finger into the cutter to hold the tubing against the blade. This thing is useless for 1/2" tubing.

Very handy

Would Recommend

Handy to have a pipe cutter so small and light. It did tend to get a little out of whack and could cut your pipe at a bit of an angle. Takes some practice to get it perfect, but otherwise well worth the money.
