The level bubble was broken when it arrived, and to get a precise bend is difficult with half inch. But it worked for what I needed. If you are looking for cheap, this is your tool.

The design is a good one but only for 3/4" EMT. If you use smaller 1/2" EMT the tool is off and 90 degree bends are trial and error and the level is inaccurate. I bought this pipe bender with the expectation that it would work well for both 1/2" and 3/4" EMT but found this to not be the case.

If I was going to bend a lot of 1/2" EMT I would buy another bender for this purpose.

This is well made and does the job. It's made of aluminum with built in level. Great for the price I paid. Thanks.

Yeah I said it. This bender is for real electricians, not you homeowner boys and guys that run a little conduit in a basement once a year. It has two levels for 45 and 90 degree bends. I love a Gardner bender because you get more bend for your buck. I mean that when the handle is straight up and down on a Gardner bender your conduit is bent to 45 degrees, not thirty degrees like a Klein or Ideal. The levels make bending even short 90s easy because they are always true.
