I had a set of the traditional snap ring pliers that claim to be heavy duty and up to the task. In reality they were prone to slipping off the rings i attempted for to used them with since they were the wrong size for the job. These snap ring pliers in contrast are a good example of how something cheaply made can still be very effective if properly designed. I highly recommend these if you need a set of snap ring pliers of varying sizes to use once in a while and do not want to spend a fortune on a better quality set that will just collect dust.

1.0 out of 5 stars Extremely poor Quality, August 23, 2011

Delivered on time as always with Amazon. As other reviews have stated, extremely poor manufacturing quality. I was hoping to use the product once to replace hubs on my truck. The jaws and pins were made so poorly that I couldn't use at all. I was a 100 miles away doing this repair and had to use screwdrivers, pliers and a Swiss army knife to make the repair. Don't waste your money even if you will use this product only once. Very poor even for Chinese.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not professional quality, November 7, 2010

For the price I paid on Amazon this is a complete set of inner and outer snap ring pliers. I bought the set to put it away for the once in a year use where you get stuck without them. Some tips are miss aligned to the extend that I will find out in future whether they bite or can be aligned with pliers prior to use. For somebody planning more than the occasional use, I would look for higher quality. Also the rubber fumes from the box are overwhelming, outside use only.
