OEMTOOLS23987 Locking Pliers Set, 7 Piece Locking Welding Pliers Set, Stabilize Work Pieces for Welding and Mechanical Work, EVA Tray for Storage

I've only owned two types of locking pliers in my life, some hand-me-down vintage Vice Grips and a collection of crappy Harbor Freight Generic Locking Pliers. These fall somewhere in the middle - they feel stout like a name brand tool, but aren't quite as well made... they fail where lesser locking pliers typically do - the needle-nose parts don't have quite the stability needed to keep the jaws from twisting and rolling over. It's a minor nit, I suppose, and hard to be upset for the price. For 9 out of 10 uses they're going to do great. Overall, I'm pretty sure I would choose these again... even though I'm feeling a bit mixed, they get 5 out of 5 stars.

Purchased this set of pliers because I thought it would be nice to have a set as I look to buy some necessary tools for my garage and I had a project that required vice grips. The packaging is nice, but not so for the quality of the tools. The spring falls out far too easily on these things regardless of where you have the knob set and a couple of my sets warped while working with them. They allegedly have a limited lifetime warranty, but I decided that I don't want to keep these things and deal with that process. Instead I'm giving them a poor review and returning them. I would not buy these again. Instead I would buy individual pliers from a more reputable manufacturer. Great packaging and a great idea, but unfortunately the quality of the product itself just doesn't seem to be there for me.

Rust off the get go. Thing with the price little more quality control. Do like the grip texture on handles. Bought this a while ago finally getting a tool box as I'm a new to the Mechanic field. I'd say the organization is nice. Overall little expensive for what you get but overall not to bad.

This set is a great value. The quality of the locking pliers is good (well made ViseGrip clones) and the foam tray is very impressive. It wastes a tiny bit of space in a drawer compared to just tossing them in, but it looks very aerospace and will keep them organized. Like all the neon-green OEM tools I've seen this is a nice product.

Nice quality and a clean presentation in the tool box...which we all strive for!! LOL
