5Great crimper  Apr 14, 2008 By J. Lambert
I had been using these cheap stamped steal crimpers for years and they where ok. I finally decided to try something real this is 100% better. The main thing is that they have a real handel and the crimp is wide so it is much stronger.

5Buy now!  Nov 18, 2010 By Ethan Ridge "EA Ridge"
The best for the money! You can't beat the price for this tool. If you're going to be using butt connectors for even ONE job, get this tool. It makes the connections solidly, and securely. This is SO much better than trying to crimp with a pair of wire cutters (dikes). I have used mine many times, and always kick myself for not getting one of these sooner.

4Better than more expensive brands  Jan 28, 2011 By Steve83 "Steve83"
I do a LOT of wiring - professionally, and at home - and these are easily the best crimpers I've found. Not only are they built right (cutter outboard of crimpers), but they have 2 crimp jaws AND 2 final crush jaws (something that's not mentioned in the description, and barely visible in the photo). The crush jaws are really the clincher on these UNDERPRICED pliers: once you've crimped the connector to the wire, crushing it makes it ~3x tighter, and less-likely to pull apart, even if you try. With these crimpers, unlike most higher-priced brands, you can actually produce crimps that look like industrial wiring. And they cost ~1/3 of those other brands. The only reason I didn't give them 5* is because they're not made in USA.

5Great Crimper  Mar 12, 2010 By Steve Schreiber
Someone 'borrowed' my first set of these crimper's and I've been looking all over the stores for it, finally ordered it on Amazon. These give the best crimp I've seen for under $50.

1Not good enough  Aug 23, 2011 By M. Buettner "bitman"
I agree with A. Edwards completely. The jaw is too wide to do terminals. You either end up crimping the wire and bruising the insulation or you bend the business end of the terminal. I bought mine locally and only one pair of 6 on the rack had the crimp dies even close to right. Either miss aligned or too sharp. Poor Chinese quality.
