Extremely capable/handy tool
I don’t normally leave reviews but this weekend I finally got around to working on 4 sinks in a rental of mine and I tried out this tool. I was extremely impressed at how handy this tool was. It fit every connection that I needed and also helped me with grip leverage as I tightened things down. I won’t do another project on faucets or toilets without this tool. Saved so much time.

Best tool to use when you can’t use your dominant hand
Thanks to a YouTube review/comparison I chose this devise. It was my 1st time to replace a kitchen faucet. This tool allowed me to remove the 1/2″ hot/cold connectors at the under base of the sink. Wrenches and such were not useful. Great grip for my small hands yet enough bulk for a relaxing grip. Extremely useful. Unsure when I’ll ever use it again, but it was worth the cost.

Good for very specific tasks
I have a two sink vanity and purchased new faucets. I spent all evening on the first faucet. First, I had to unscrew the water lines. All I have is a basic adjustible wrench. It took a lot of work just to break the nuts free. Then, I had to work them for a bit until I broke the plumbing tape loose. Finally, I got those removed. Then, the plastic nuts that hold the faucet down. It was nearly impossible to get my wrench on those and there is almost no room to work. Many smashed fingers later, I got those loose. Next, the drain. I had to break the compression nut on the P-trap loose. That took the longest time of all. After watching many videos for help, I soaked it in very hot water and kept twisting it until it finally gave way and came off. Finally, the last task – the super-thin nut under the drain in the sink. After about 200 turns, breaking through glue and tape and tape in glue and glue on tape, it finally came off. Then, I put in the new faucet and I decided I needed a tool, so I purchased this tool.The next sink, with this tool. First, the nuts on the water lines. This tool attached to them, but they wouldn’t budge. I couldn’t get my wrench around the tool, so I gave up and just used by wrench to loosen then and then I used this tool to get them the rest of the way off. Then, the plastic nuts under the faucets. This tool has a thing to attach to those. It did great on them. They came right off. Next, the P-trap compression nut. Again, I had to work at it for over an hour to get it to budge, then it came off. This tool has nothing to help with it, so it was back to my wrench. Finally, the thin little nut under the sink. This tool has nothing for that either. So, it was another 200 little turns breacking though all the tape and glue. Then, I put in the new sink. I used this tool to tighten the nuts to hold the faucet in place and the nuts on the water lines.This tool is sturdy. It is a good size. I have small hands and I could use it. It has a lot of things it can attach to. Unfortunally, it doesn’t really give you a good way to add torque to it when you twist. It would be nice if there was a hole right through the middle where you could put a screwdriver. Instead, you are apparently supposed to use a socket wrench on one end and the attachment on the other – which I didn’t have access to. I would also like it if there was something on it that could be used for the drain. That is where I spent most of my time.

Great Tool!
For years I’ve wondered why finding the right tool to install faucets was such a challenge. In cramped quarters it was always too short or tool long. Then I found this. I’ve now bought two and have installed new faucets at home, our cottage and our daughters. Worth every penny.

Doesn’t work well or at allwith pull down sprayer sinks!!!!
Well built and great for traditional sinks. Pull down sprayer sinks with multiple lines are a no go. Do not buy this for them. Traditional single or double line sinks only. The fitting for the sprayer is the issue it’s too big and gets caught and twists with the tool.

Tool pays for itself the first time you use it
This is a great tool should have bought something like this over 20 years ago. It really makes holding and or tightening bathroom faucets much more doable for one person.
