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.

Works.

Would Recommend

Worked as expected. There is not much to it. Probably too expensive for what it is, but the alternatives were even more expensive.

Curly fry cutter.

Would Not Recommend

I do not like this tool. It won't make straight cuts no matter what I try. I've resorted to just using a chop saw or box blade because every time I finish a project I seem to forget how terrible this tool is and every time I go tona hardware store I forget to buy a better tool. Save your thumbs, save the gray hairs. Buy something else.

Stiffness / opening Pex Cutter not worth cost.

Would Not Recommend

This is a very hard devise to open by hand. Could /should have longer handles to aid in positioning and placing over 3/4 inch Pex tubing. Will provide a clean cut but I would not have purchase it had I known this.

Dont

Would Not Recommend

This tool would be awesome, IF it would cut straight - but it won't. I actually ended up going back to lowes to buy another 5ft section of pex tubing because I wasted one trying to get straight cuts. If they gave this thing away, it would be a ripoff.
