Review: High Quality - I really did not need this but it was so cheap in the warehouse deals I could not pass it up great for small engines and hobby stuff. USA Made very high quality.
Review: A good product with zero Customer Service. - This is a CDI/Snap-On Tools product. Customer Service is non-existent with this product, in my experience. I over torqued my wrench (100% my fault), and sent it to the CDI Factory Service repair center per their website info. The only reason I knew they had received it was through the UPS delivery receipt. CDI had my wrench for nearly 3 months, and never reached out as to repair status or estimated return date. I sent several emails and left voice mails, all went completely ignored. No response whatsoever. I finally submitted a complaint through the Better Business Bureau, and only then did they send me an email stating they couldn’t fix the product and that they were sending it back to me. A supposed Customer Service rep then left me a voice mail to contact her. I have attempted to do so and left a voice mail. Once again, crickets. I’ll never buy a Snap-On Tools brand product again.
