Summary: 4 Stars
I don't usually write reviews for tools--I'm more a literature guy. Still, when I saw the negative reviews for this gadget tool, I felt I had to put in my two cents.
First, the tool does what it's designed to do. It's a great adjustable wrench that helps grip nuts and bolts with great force. It's easy to use, very much intuitive. You place it over the nut or bolt head, squeeze, and turn. With very little practice, you develop a quick rhythm of releasing the grip, returning the wrench to a start position, and gripping again for a other tightening or loosening turn, much like a ratchet. It's all really quite simple.
Of course, if you're doing work where you require a ratchet with an angle head or an extension to increase your reach to get you into tight spaces, e.g. engine work or some other application where you would NEVER use pliers, then don't go reaching for the Bionic Wrench expecting miracles! It works like a plier works, as advertised, so it's foolish to expect anything else from this tool. Sticking it deep into an engine where your hand barely reaches and expecting it to accomplish the impossible just because it's called "bionic" is just plain silly.
That said, if you're looking for a well-made, durable tool to take the place of several box wrenches and pliers for simple tasks, then this is your tool. If you're looking for some magic method for removing your exhaust manifold, hire a professional mechanic and leave the work to someone smart enough to choose the right tools for the job.
Customer Review: Please don't fault the tool for a poor bolt location
Summary: 4 Stars
This tool, like most other tools, works incredibly well when used on applications for which it was designed. The overwhelming majority of the negative, or poor, reviews seem to be related more to the location of a bolt or clearance issues and these are separate issues. This tool performs exceptionally well when properly used. True, for individuals who have poor dexterity or limited hand strength this may not be the best tool for you, but shifting your grip out toward the end of the handles can really increase your strength via leverage. Miracle tool, this is not, but worth the money for its intended usage...absolutely. Out here in bush Alaska we buy tools because they work, not because they are a novelty. Tools don't "find a place" in my tool box, they earn it and this tool has made a home for itself. I'm looking at purchasing more for gifts for friends and family.
