4.0 out of 5 stars Makes Changing Chain Length Easy, February 10, 2007

If you've ever hung a chandelier, you know how frustrating it can be changing the chain length by bending the loops with a regular pair of pliers. Even more of a struggle is getting the loops back rogether again without marring the finish or pinching the skin of your palm! This tool makes the job easy; just place the loop on the outside of the plier jaws and squeeze to open the loop. To close the loop, place the loop inside the jaws and squeeze. Presto, back together again with no marring or cursing! Makes life a whole lot easier if you use a lot of decorative chain. I've used other chain pliers that are heavier duty, but this one works fine. Great tool!

4.0 out of 5 stars Unlinking the links!, November 10, 2006

Ever tried to unlink a chain? Two sets of normal pliers and only two hands...too many pliers and not enough fingers! Well, these pliers will do easily what you need done - both opening a link and closing it back up. Insert to whatever size you need (the end looks like steps with the different sizes) and squeeze. One open link! When you're ready to close it, place the link in the space in the middle of the pliers and squeeze again. One closed link! The only reason I didn't give it 5 full stars is because they don't work on small or large chains, just the ones in the middle range. Never mind, they're wonderful. My fingers thank you!

5.0 out of 5 stars 7" Chain Pliers, May 8, 2007

If you have any kind a of a chandelier or lamp with a chain that needs adjustments, then this is the tool for you. It makes easy work of opening and closing the chain links with no damage to the chain. Currently I only have 2 chandeliers to hang, actually 1 is hung and the other will be hung soon. As far as I am concerned this tool has already paid for itself with the 1 chandelier that I have hung. I am a firm believer in having the right tool for the job, this is the right tool when it comes to chandelier hanging.
