For the price, everyone should have one of these in their toolbox. Its great for those times where you need a little bit of leverage in a small place. I have personally found mine most usefull as a helper when hanging a door, it was just the right size and thickness.

Due to its thickness, this is not a strong pry bar and it does have some flex, but it will do for anything a reasonable person would attempt with a 7" long pry bar. The relatively thin thickness is also what makes this pry bar so handy, it is not that thick bar of steel like most pry bars, this thing is only slightly thicker than a stamped piece of sheet metal.

If you dont expect a "real" pry bar when you order this, you will be very happy with what you get, especially for the price.

These are cheap....now we're covered the good point. This pry bar is too thick for trim removal jobs and that sort of thing. It bends easily, so its not really a pry bar, except when working on a Barbie house. For good small pry bars, worth many times the difference in price, try the Hyde # 45000 pry bar or the Titan #17005.

5.0 out of 5 stars A simple but surprisingly versatile tool, June 7, 2006

The Wonder Bar II is small, light, inexpensive, and amazingly handy. It works great as a small crowbar, and I was surprised by how useful it is to have a selection of lever arms and grip shapes available to meet various nail-pulling needs. This may deliver the best value for the money of anything in my tool box.
