3.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the price. Takes too much time to adjust, December 31, 2009

First thing I will say is that these clamps do work once adjusted and aligned perfectly they will hold stock tightly hence the three stars. I don't see the cost/benefit of these clamps though. It takes too long to get them adjusted and your stock aligned perfectly. They take too much time to adjust, voiding the speed benefits of their locking pliers type design. Once adjusted they do hold tightly which is a plus but they must be very accurately adjusted and applied otherwise they move the stock out of alignment. I am now using the Rockler "Clamp-it" type which are half the price and twice the speed, no adjustments necessary just a 90deg. "angle" and 2 clamps. The Kreg 90deg. clamps are an overly complicated overly expensive solution masquerading a a simple one handed clamp.

5.0 out of 5 stars You Can Never Have Too Many Good Clamps, April 22, 2009

Kind of expensive because you are probably going to want 2 clamps so that you can secure both sides of your work piece. But the clamps are worth it, especially if you work alone! They securely and quickly clamp the wood so that you can permanently attach with pocket screws. Cabinet shelves are a breeze -- the open clamp design allows wood to slide through so that you can use the clamp as BOTH a corner clamp and a 90-degree shelf clamp.

I purchased this clamp less than 3 months ago and the swivel end has already fell off the threaded rod. It is a poor excuse for a ball and socket design. I have several other type of Kreg clamps in my shop that I use to build the boxes for kitchen cabinets. My Kreg electric pocket hole machine has never failed me in the 4 years I have owned it. This tool by Kreg was a disapointment to say the least. Good idea just poorly made.
