Found this much safer than the "two prongs" type of tool - the one with two pre-formed perches. The extra "finger" to hold the coil, and the swinging halves of the perch on this one making it FAR more secure. A lot more setup to get it sitting snug, but completely worth it.

It's a little heavy and bulky but you will get the job done and safely with out worries about loosing some fingers. Does not work on smaller springs.

Awesome safe tool. It not a cheap China tool that you have to worry about using. Very simple to use and also time consuming. It’s nice and portable and won’t take up shop space. You can’t loose with this tool.

Not suitable for elliptical springs with larger diameter slanted center section. Ended up using 2 old sets of simple spring compressor. Heavy device that would benefit from from stronger lighter jams. Uses mass to get around cheap metal jaws that are difficult to fit into springs to get sufficient compression

I was skeptical on this tool, but once I figured it out, it worked really good! I felt pretty safe with the spring compressed. Only hard part is getting the jaws on the spring and getting them off when done. But overall, it was the easiest and safest way to change a strut out as a DYI.

Was looking for a safer DIY method to compress springs and this was great! I wall mounted a vise to hold the body of the tool so I could disassemble the strut more easily. Very safe and sturdy. I felt comfortable compressing my minivan’s springs with this. I used half of a cheap spring compressor set as an extra safety measure, but likely didn’t need it.My only issue is that left-hand wound springs do NOT fit easily in this design. The right-hand wound spring was a breeze, but I had to angle the left-hand spring quite a bit and only use 3 of the 4 arms on the tool to get a good enough fit to compress it. If they would have provided two sets of arms, or made them reversible to accommodate both spring directions, this tool would have been a 5/5.

I was hoping to get a spring compressor that feels a bit safer than the typical screw and hanger style, this does meet that criteria.However, the jaws are large and relatively immobile, so getting it to fit particularly shorter springs or closely sprung springs (where the distance between the windings is small) is problematic. Springs with a small number of widely spaced windings is also a problem as well since it doesn't really connect to a top hat or to the spring seat and its compression capability is limited in these circumstances. In the areas where it does work, it is OK but tends to yield a compressed spring on one side and less compressed on the other which makes strut mount fitting more fiddlily than need be. Overall don't waste time or money on this compressor, a typical pair of screw and hook compressors (with Acme threads) are far more capable. This is a quality tool, but very limited in its application. If you have a specific application where it works, it could be a very good tool. But for many automotive uses (Honda, Subaru, BMW were the 3 that I tried), it can be made to work OK on certain ends of each car, but not on all springs of any of them.

Now I was working on a 2020 4wd Chevy Colorado. It could just be that this was not meant for trucks. Unfortunately once I removed the strut I couldn't get it back in because the spring wasn't held straight. Might work better with cars.
