Good for most things you'd need locking pliers for, but not recommended for working with electronics without a lot of space to work.

1 time use on a small#10-24 screw
Would Not RecommendI used this Irwin/Vise Grip to try and remove a small #10-24x1/4 Flathead screw. I tightened the thumb screw and as I squeezed the handles, the upper jaw exploded apart! Not good!!
Great once unlocked
Would RecommendThese were admittedly tough to unlock upon first opening the package. If you have limited grip strength or dexterity issues I'd make sure to have someone (even store staff) help you unlock out of the package. After that, the pliers have a great grip and lock firmly in place. I highly recommend for smaller jobs that bulkier pliers are too large for.

Great purchase!
Would RecommendIf you have big hands, the grips will feel a little small and thin, otherwise they are a great purchase for the money and quality of materials. I like them.
