Would Not Recommend[Employee of lowes] I've had these for years. I have tried them for nuts that needs to be loosened, hose clamps that needs to be removed, pipes that need to be decoupled, and on and on. They fail EVERY TIME. I have not found a single problem that these can solve. They don't work for ANYTHING. Totally useless.

Not pliers
Would Not RecommendThey should not be named pliers, they are just adjustable wrenches. If you try to apply unlimited force they will bind up immediately and you will just slip right off.

Just couldn’t wait read before you buy!
I was waiting to catch these on one of Lowe’s yellow tags specials because I am as much of a fan of great deals as I am tools. After about 5 months I couldn’t wait any longer and pulled the trigger. It was worth the money. I liked the ease of use and the fact it remembered where it was at for quick re-gripping of the same nut or bolt for faster tightening and loosening. Not ever innovation Kobalt releases feels sturdy but to my satisfaction this one hit the mark. The button had a smooth action...
