Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2017
Update: have been using the wrench for about a week now. The jaw has minimal slip. Material seems good, and for the size wrench feels very ergonomic in your hand. Extremely pleased. The measurement markings are also accurate which has been an issue with other adjustables I've used in the past.
This thing is great. Hands down. It's heavy and solid, very little backlash in the adjustment. The measurement readings are spot on. It's held up to abuse (sand hammer, cheater bar, sea water) I'm very impressed and satisfied.

It is a little bulky when it comes to smaller fasteners, & obviously physics dictates that you won't have leverage on tighter fixtures; but this is all to be expected with what you're getting!
This & a set of 10" pliers wrenches gets almost everything done!
