Made light work of cutting windows into camper van conversion. Neat and clean cut and light enough weight to easily manoeuvre around the corners. Good functionality, great value happy all round

Great tool for the price. But you will need to spend a bit of time setting it up for the gauge of steel you are cutting. Tools are provided and even a set of feeler gauges. It is a bit fiddly to set up, but once dialed in cuts sheet steel with relative ease.

Brought this to cut 0.9 mm stainless steel sheet, it worked very well indeed so I can recommend this product.

I bought this tool last year. Didn't expect much as it was at a super bargain price on Amazon. Boy was I wrong. It's well made, super robust, super tough cutting blades AND dead easy to use. I'm a fabricator of all kinds of parts. Sheet steel up to 2mm suits me as its easy to form into all kinds of shapes. I would recommend a bit of practice before you use it for the first time. You will find out its limitations. To be honest, I was amazed at how easy it sails through 1mm or 2mm sheet steel. It will cut straight as an arrow. Curves must be gradual BUT with practice you can cut some amazing curves. The thing that impressed me was its accuracy. It doesn't wander off or crab like CHEAP nibblers. You get a spare set of blades, adjuster key and lubricating oil. I've used this a lot over the last year with the confidence it won't break down because it was cheap. It's the quality build that gives me that confidence. 5 STARS FROM ME - FANTASTIC TOOL AND WELL WORTH EVERY PENNY

Awesome tool. I was skeptical at first not knowing the brand, and seeing other ones at 3-4x the price. I wanted this exact kind of tool as I needed to cut 4 window holes in my van. These are recommended instead of an angle grinder or jigsaw because of how clean they cut and how little dust they create, which can stick to metal surfaces and rust. This tool goes through van steel like butter and leaves a really clean cut. Now I don't know what do with it. I just want to cut up the rest of my van for fun.

Will cut thin sheet metal without difficulty. Sheet metal 1mm or more thick it has difficulty with.

I've used this on 1.5mm stainless, 2mm steel & 1.5mm aluminium - all cut easily. The tool takes a little practice to be effective and it is ESSENTIAL to set it up as the instructions say. Too small a gap risks shattering the cutters and too big a gap tears the metal being cut. The on/off switch, though, is an absolute pain, extremely difficult to switch 'on' and far too easy to cancel. The spring in it is too strong and the latch to hold it on far too sensitive. I shall look at a mod once the warranty period is over - a lighter spring, perhaps. Other than that, a value tool for cutting sheet metal. Nice that is comes with spare brushes for the motor and a pair of spare cutter blades. I bought extra because of the chance that they'll no longer be available when I need them. It does look, though, as if the cutters are re-sharpenable - that remains an experiment.

Shears worked well. I bought it to cut out two windows on a camper for me and for the price range it was a lot cheaper than everything. Cut the two windows without much fuss
