Knipex make great pliers but they are expensive, so I thought about this purchase for a while before I finally bought them.I already have 250mm and 300mm water pump pliers and I wanted something a bit smaller to get into tight spaces. I was very surprised just how compact these pliers are, and initially thought they wouldn't be up to the job. In use however they are brilliant, small enough to get in where other water pump pliers or grips can't, but with a decent capacity - the 180mm model I bought fits a 40mm nut. Their strong grip allowed me to undo nuts I didn't expect such a compact tool to manage.The size adjustment gives a range of about 6mm before you have to move to the next notch.It would be nice if this had a bit more movement but this would need a larger and more complex mechanism, so it's a good compromise. Their construction means the harder you push on the handle, the tighter they grip the nut, and there's no danger of their slipping. The parallel jaws are smooth and flat and don't mar brass or chrome fittings, so much nicer than pipe grips.Adjusting the pliers to the required size is a little fiddly, but no more so than regular pipe grips or adjustable spanners. They don't slip, keeping their size setting until you want to change. This is a real advantage over adjustable spanners that seem to need to be tightened constantly. You can also ease off on the handles and let them slip as you undo or tighten the nut, a bit like a ratchet spanner. This really speeds up working, especially if you can't see what your doing.Although these are called 'Pliers Wrench' they are most useful as a truly useable adjustable spanner, that happens to be a good pair of pliers too. These have replaced a set of spanners in my tool box.The good• Compact• Good capacity• Smooth parallel action jawsThe bad• Size markings hard to see• Adjustment range is a bit smallOverall I'm really impressed with these pliers. They aren't the cheapest around, but offer good value when you consider the cost and space savings you can make by not needing a full set of spanners. They are much better than water pump pliers and don't cut up the work piece. Definitely recommended.

best pair of adjustables you will own.The mechanism can take a minute to get used to but the functionality is superb. Much better than classic adjustable wrenches as you get so much more grip.

They do what they are supposed to, but I think they are a touch expensive.They feel good quality though, and should last me a long long time.
