Simple to use. Makes the job quicker and easier
michael s.
I like the tool
Ratchet system was a little tight but overall it works good
Beats a c clamp or the other crude tool I had
Lawrence E.
Bought it as an early Christmas gift. My buddy is stoked!
Greg S.
Handy item to have. Many times there is no room to fit clamps but this will always fit
Glenn B.
It works good did the job
Albert K.
The product is very nice.
Kelly P.
Best thing since jumper cables,lol
Len F.
One of the best tools I’ve ever had!
Roger L.
Great tool only thing bieleave it should have all metal handle
John B.
Tool worked like it was designed however the plates bent putting the rear caliper piston back in making it impossible for the pins and the magnet to hold the larger plates for the front calipers. If not for that it would have gotten 5 stars.
Steve C.
I haven't got to use it yet but it looks like it will do the job.
Jeffrey J.
I like it very much. Works well. I think I would change only one thing. The round part I would make it so a wrench would fit on it. Not sure fat fingers would be able to hold it to start ratcheting.
Jim B.
Great tool every garage should have one
John M.
It arrived, much to my surprise from the other orders from China land.
Harold I.
Died a month I purchased wasn't delivered when it was supposed to be but everything else is fine.
Mark F.
I have done a lot of brakes jobs over the years and this tool works great!!!!!
Tom
The shipping took longer than advertised, but the tool works well and quality is good, would order again and buy other tools, legit company and total faith restored
Ronald P.
Items ordered where the items advertised!! Shipping wasn’t too bad all things considering.
ROBERT M.
I needed this for replacing brake pads. Got tired of using the old c clamp.
Rick F.
Was going to use it on my wife's car, but, took a very long time to be delivered. Doing a full brake job on my 2500 Ram so will see how it works. I am good very with tools so didn't need instructions, of which there were none! Box it came it, though in a shipping bag, was coming apart at various spots.
Despite the above, does look like it will be a good tool.
Terry G.
Not having the best experience with this thing, but I'm making it work. One of the plates, the one that screws into the assembly, was bent on arrival. I put it in my vice and straightened it out, no big deal. It comes with large adapter plates to handle bigger calipers that attach magnetically, but one of the magnets immediately fell out. I shattered it trying to reinstall, so it doesn't attach like it should. Did my first brake job with it and it worked amazingly well, it's a good design. Probably shaved a half an hour off the job. When I was finished, I noticed that the plate was bent again from the force exerted from the caliper. I put it back in my vice and adjusted it again, only this time it broke the weld holding the plate to the threaded rod. I like the tool enough to fix it, I just wish it had better build quality out of the box.

I have not used it yet but is simple to use. Very sturdy and made of steel. Well made and easy to operate. Ready to put it to use here soon.
Jon P.
Little tricky getting it adjusted but once pressure is on it, it works really well
David H.
Good tool make life easier
Robert F.
Haven’t got to use it yet but loos like it is going to work great and easy to use
chris a.
The tool took close to a month to receive.. I didn't expect it was going to be so long.. well I need to finish a job.. so I went to local auto parts store.. where they had this tool.. I purchased it as it was cheaper then this.. but I thought that the one I ordered would be a craftsman brand tool.. when I got it in the mail.. it was the same exact one that I bought at the parts store..
Michael B.
Works great. never have to use a c-clamp again
dave k.
This design is better than the first one I purchased. The first one had course threads on one side and fine threads on the other and the fine thread side stripped after several uses.
This design has only course on one side.
Jerry A.
The tool is fine but was bent upon arrival
Wilfredo G.
It cama with missing magnets, other than that is ok.
John G.
Works like a charm on the many different calipers encountered
Jammie B.
This is an awesome find for me, cause i work on brakes and I'm tired of use large pliers or c clamps.
JAMES G.
It doesn't work like I thought it would I struggled a little bit the metal and magnetic parts don't stay together as well as I think they should and the ratchet isn't that great either.
Michael W.
As soon as I opened the package, one if the large caliper adapter plates fell off. On of the magnets has come unglued. Ok, stuff happens. I was working on a 2004 Dodge Dakota and wouldn't need them. When I started the job I discovered that the tool didn't adjust small enough. I had to resort to the C-clamp methodology I have used in the past to compress the cylinder enough to use your tool. That being said it is a great idea. I just wish it would work on the smaller calipers without help.
James L.
Works great makes doing brakes easier and faster.
william s.
I had to glue the magnets back in place other than that it works just fine
Customer
I still don’t have this tool and paid for it 2 months ago, your shipping is horse shit. I wouldn’t buy a damn thing from these people
Thomas J.
I used it on a dual piston caliper on a GM 2500HD and it worked fine. The only problem was the side plates are removable and the magnets that hold them in place are not strong enough and they fall out due to bad glue.
Michael G.
It works great. Would work better if it retract in more.
Keith G.
Love the quality and the fact that the head rotates. That way we get it in the right positions for flexibility. Good solid tool.

Grant S.
Was skeptical at first, but intrigue got the best of me. Item works as presented. Makes changing brake pads easier.
PETER Z.
Great caliper press would have finished faster if the rotor was rusted on. Otherwise I I would have taken 15 Minutes.
Curtis H.
I put to use yet,but when I do I will keep u informed
Brooks F.
It worked good freeing up frozen piston in caliber and was able to rebuild.
carroll f.
It works great except the twist in
Dennis O.
Haven't had a chance to use but will look forward it appears practical.
Neal S.
Really impressed with how it works. Much faster the the type of tool that you need to turn with a wrench.
Jon W.
Awesome tool thanks a million awesome
Darrell W.
Its a great tool to have it came in handy it was well needed im glad i purchased it.
Jeff H.
Well made heavy built works great

David A.
I have not used it yet but I'm sure it'll work just fine
leon m.
Havent used it yet it does look like it pretty good quality and will work . What you might want to tell the folks ordering is that its coming from china and it will be almost 2 weeks before it will arrive I already had my brake job done way before it arrived . Other than that it looks like it should get the job done .
Paul M.
this tool should have been made years ago, makes a brake job easier
Kenton w.
Watching the video it looks amazing and it seems like a must have upon arrival I attempted to use it and I realized it was not suited for a f150 with dual pistons calipers.work amazing on my Volkwagens
Ernesto F.
Better than anything I’ve used.
vickie o.
Very nice bought two of them
Fred W.
Worked well, got the job done.

I have needed this many times
Carmen I.
Haven't used product yet, but really like it, a great idea, can't wait to use it, shipping was on time just like you said, thank you, I will let you know how it works in the future.
John M.
The item I received is good, but it is not the item shown in the advertisement. I had bought one prior to the second one. The first one was as advertised with blue handle and single set of plates. I ordered another form a different ad from the same company. The photo showed the item had a red handle with two sets of plates. The second set of plates fit over the first and made the surface longer. And it also cost right much more. When I received the second item it was the same as the first one. I the item was misrepresented and cost more money. Don’t buy from this company.
Philip P.
i like it it work great itad a little problem it didnot come with instructions on how it work but it still was great thank you philip
Lyle J.
Yes it really does work great. Need this tool. Ever body that works on breaks needs one.
Thank you.
Troy D.
Awesome time saving
Gilbert B.
This tool is a great asset to my tool box, the ease of use and not having to leave an old pad to compress the caliper is a win in my opinion. I'll always have this in short reach.
timothy w.
Works great. Just what I needed to make my brake jobs easier!
Rafael P.
Quick delivery,i was amazed. Thank you
charles s.
Great tool makes caliper compression a breeze
Thomas J.
I ordered the red deluxe model and got the regular blue handled one. The only problem is the ratchet works so hard you have to manually spin the pads so they are touching the piston and outside caliper to get the ratchet to start working. But it does work easy after that.
Allen T.
I thought I was getting three sets of bad thing but I only got one but other than that it's fine he said I was getting a single piston a double piston the quad piston I guess that one you gave me works on all but other than that it works great
Pedro R.
It made the job quick and simple.i used too use a c clamp and a metal plate to compress the pistons before it was a real pain in the u know what.love the tool.
Manuel G.
Easy to use. Came in at the right time when i was ready to do the brakes in the car.
Customer
I got them for my six piston brakes however I haven't been able to use them. They're long enough to cover all pistons.
Johnny H.
Have not used yet but it look like it will get the job done
Robert E.
Worked excellent.
John W.
Great tool for the price. Love it!!
David P.
I have one regret. That is me not coming up with the idea. After years of c clamps and improvising. Great tool Thanks
keith b.
Was a little skeptical, I have done my own brakes for years but with the larger calipers out there now I really didn't have the right c clamp,old school. I saw this and figured I would give it a shot, the older you get the easier you want things o be...lol. I was surprised, did brakes on a F150 and it worked well. I plan on using it on my GT500 next. I expect it will work well again.
James G.
Don't know how I lived with out it game changer
David R.
I Love this product and cant wait to use it and when I do I went a picture of it in use.
henry w.
Made our brake jobs easier, and faster. Great tool Love Craftsman.
