I ordered this set based upon reading various reviews, which isn't always proof of quality unless the number of reviews is large. So, after having studied plenty of similar tools and comparing what reviews were offered, I decided to take the chance and purchase this set.It arrived today, so I immediately checked out each piece for more obvious signs of quality, then I tested them on a few items for ease of use and functionality. I was totally impressed by the weight and size of each item, which gave me the impression that they will hold up under extremes of torque or other heavy use.I was also very impressed with the release and set buttons on the channel locks, which had always been the one problem using such tools that we had accepted as normal. When going after larger nuts and bolts, for example, we had to often reset the locking position once we reopened the grips for another turn. Now, with this set, that position remains intact, never changing until we push the release button for another setting.I must add that I like the folding storage unit supplied with this set, which folds nicely and has two stetchable loops to hold in in place. It goes easily into my large tool bag, leaving the individual pliers secured rather than spacing them out into the bag's various compartments. When I need a plier or cutter, I just grab the folding bag and pick what I want, glad that all my choices will be right there at the same time.Since purchasing from Amazon, I have been quite impressed, even though some individual products might not be up to snuff. These problems are not the fault of Amazon, of course, but from the various manufacturers who supply the endless number of like products from which we make our choices. What impresses me is that Amazon never tries to hide any negative comments or reviews, showing them up front and honestly, making sure we feel as though we're the most important parts of their business, not those who simply want our money.I've bought several other tools, along with other products in other categories, and feel comfort in that what I bought was my decision, not any cleverly worded piece for which Amazon was responsible. It was left up to me to peruse the reviews and study the advertising by the various companies, so when a choice was made, it was with an educated mindset based upon my willingness to take the time before ordering.Great packing and concern for each order is always obvious to me when dealing with Amazon, so I will always look there first when I have a need for yet another purchase. I love this set of tools, at least thus far, and I would recommend them to anyone I know. Just remember, those of you who have been disappointed with any products you have purchased here, that it is your resonsibility to study an entire line of like products before you purchase. Each review and even the manufacturer's description, all read in order to get a good feel of the product, should be done before placing any order. I have found that just the name of a company isn't always proof that the item will be satisfactory, but the compilation of reviews and other descriptions can often be the best source of information needed to rate it.

First off, the design of these pliers is intuitive and user-friendly. The GrooveLock technology allows for easy adjustment with just the push of a button, ensuring a perfect fit for different tasks. I appreciate how quickly I can switch between sizes, which saves me time and effort while working on various projects around the house.The build quality of these pliers is impressive. They feel sturdy and well-made in my hands, providing a comfortable grip with their ProTouch handles. I've used them for various tasks, from tightening bolts to working on pipes, and they have held up well without any signs of wear or slippage.One standout feature of this set is the range of sizes it offers. With 8 different pliers at my disposal, I can tackle a wide range of tasks without having to hunt for the right tool. Whether it's a small job or a more demanding project, these pliers have proven to be reliable companions.The performance of these IRWIN VISE-GRIP GrooveLock pliers has been consistent throughout my usage. The jaw adjustment mechanism works smoothly, and the pliers maintain a strong grip on the materials, providing confidence in the work being done.As with any product, there are some downsides to consider. The price of this 8-piece set might be a bit higher than other pliers on the market, but I believe the quality and versatility justify the investment. Additionally, the size and weight of the pliers might be a little cumbersome for people with smaller hands, but I personally didn't find it to be a major issue.

If the tool complement matches what you need, this is a great set. Don't buy cheapo hand tools if you can avoid it. These are pretty good quality of a mid-range brand that should last you a good amount of time.

I was shopping for something else when I saw this set and recognized it in the search results. When I opened up the product detail page I could see the Amazon purchase reminder that I bought this set back in 2014 and even have the original roll bag they came in. This set of pliers has served me very well over the years and I felt I owed the Irwin company a good product review. These pliers are very durable and the entire set will handle virtually any DIY job for the average homeowner. If you add a good set of electric pliers to the mix you have everything you could possibly need. The adjustable jaw 'groove lock' or more commonly called 'channel lock' pliers are probably what I use most often. Take care of the pliers and they will last for years. - I oil mine periodically with WD-40 just to keep them from rusting and functioning well. I also adjust the tension between the jaws to my personal preference which varies depending on the type of plier.

Great tools use them everyday at my assembly job. strong durable and comfortable in my hand.
