4.0 out of 5 stars Great Tool for the Do-It-Yourselfer, January 31, 2008

By	J. Kikuchi (CULVER CITY, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I found that this bundle worked great with RG6-Quad cable. The stripper works great for making 2-level strips as long as you use it carefully and take your time. It's just plastic and the blade is very small, but it will do the job if you don't handle it roughly. The supplied compression connectors work fine with RG6-Quad and standard RG6 cable and the compression tool is a snap to use. About the only thing missing from this bundle is a flaring tool which would make installation of the cable into the connectors easier. If it had the flaring tool, I'd give it 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid Product, March 25, 2008

By	T. Anderson (Twin Cities, MN) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This product performs very well. The cable stripper works just fine. The compression crimper works perfectly. The hardest part of the job is peeling back the shield and shoving the connector onto the cable. The rest of the task is painless using this set.

1.0 out of 5 stars This tool did not work for me, March 31, 2009

I am unhappy with this tool kit. The stripper is cheap plastic with a little blade. The crimp tool tends to just push out the cable from the connector instead of actually crimping anything. I did finally get one on but after a month the tv started looking fuzzy. I went to wiggle the wire and it came right out of the connector. I am very handy with electrical and mechanical stuff around the house. One thing I can not stand is inferior tools and this is a cut rate tool for consumers. I'm not sure why everyone else is so happy with this product, I think it is junk.
