Capri Tools Klinge Locking Pliers Set Review





This is an all around nice set of locking pliers. This is tool set 1-1120 lockinb pliers set from Capri Tools. This is a set of 7 pliers in all. The set includes 3 curved jaw, 2 long nose, and 2 clamp pliers. This all comes in a memory foam type mat to keep them in place and organized.


To start with I have used the 2 clamp pliers for welding. They have worked great at holding whatever I needed to put together. I have also over tightened these pliers and locked them on to see how they do under stress. They did not fold or twist when locking in place like a lot of the cheap pliers on the market. They held form nicely, although I do not recommend forcefully over tightning because they will eventually have issues. I have used the small set of long nose pliers for some taking out a few stripped bolts on a couple of things around the house. I have used this set of pliers on the hatch back rods that have lost the ability to hold up the back door. These clamped on to the rods and stopped the door from coming down.


The next thing is once you spin the screw in and out on the pliers they stay in place. I have had pliers that move everytime they are released and then I have to readjust everytime I want to use them on the same project(annoying).


Now we move to the clamping surfaces of the pliers. The clamp pliers do not have teeth like the others in the set but they do offer a fairly large flat clamping surface that seems to hold very well. The other 5 pliers have teeth in the clamping surface. This is great for bolt heads that have stripped since these teeth seem to dig in well when you attach the pliers.


The relases on the handles are very easy to use. Once you have the clamp you are using in place you press the release and these pliers jump apart from the surface. You will need to be ready for this action. I was happy to see that there was this much spring in the pliers when released.


This set of pliers are made to be very durable. They have strong rivetts through out the entire set. The formed metal for the pliers are very solid. I have dropped the clamping pliers a dozen times when releasing them from my welding projects and they do not seem to be taking any damage at all.


The tray these plies come in makes it really nice for upright tool boxes. The tray is adjustable with cut out tabs along the top and right side. This makes it where you can adjust it to the size of your drawer. This keeps the pliers in one place, organized, and easy to find. The tray fills much like memory foam that you find in many of the pillows, cushions, and even beds where it springs back to shape if something heavy is placed on top of it.


If you are in the market for a great set of locking pliers this is one I recommend picking up. There are 7 pliers in total for any kind of small project you may have, built very durable, release is nice, and the pliers with teeth actually bite into the surface. This set of pliers also comes with the storage tray and a lifetime warranty. I would like to thank Bbw brands and affiliates for sending me this set of Capri Locking Pliers to try out and share my opinion.

Hanging Toiletry Bag Review




This is a interesting bag design. It is designed with a hook that looks much like a clothes hanger. It has lots of space to hold most if not all of your toiletry needs. This bag does only come black in color with a blue half moon shape chevron on the front.


Okay to start with all of the compartments for storage. On the side of the bag there are 2 pockets that are the full heighth of the bag. Once you open the bag right below the hanger is a small pocket that does not close or seal. You will need to put something in this that can hold in place on its own once you close the bag because this pocker will be upside down. Below that is a mesh pocket that zips. Now you get to the inside of the bag there are 2 mesh stretch pockets on the back that lay flat and will hold tightly up against what you do slide into these pockets. On the front side facing out is a small zipper pocket for even more storage.


Now for the durability of this bag. This is a nylon bag for starters. This makes it water resistant but not the most durable to anything pointy. The stitching of the bag seems to be average or maybe a bit above average. On the zippers there are cloth pull straps instead of the typical hard pull tabs. These are not the greatest in the world because they do snag and catch on things. Once these cloth hoops catch or snag on something they are usually torn free from the bag. Next the zippers are the cheap plastic things that like to jump track and always wear out very quickly.


This bag is desinged to hold your health and beauty items in one place. The ability to hang up is kind of nice and works great off of most motel/hotel towel bars. I was able to put my beard trimmer, razor, refill cartrage, cologne, body spray, hand lotion, tooth brush, tooth paste, travel size shampoo, travel size mouth wash, tweezer set, and a lot of other small items. However do not over load this bag to much since. It is designed to hold H&B items not things like bowling balls! If you treat this bag well it should last a good deal of time.


If you are looking for a good travel bag for your health and beauty products you may want to consider this bag. It does hang on a towel rack making it really easy to keep all your items in one place, easy to put things in and out of the bag while it is hanging, the bag offers many compartments to keep thing organized, the bag is light weight, and compact. I would like to thank Mens Bodega and affiliates for sending me this toiletry bag to try out and share my opinion.

Stadium Chair Review




This is a seat designed for bleachers to make the sit much more comfortable. It is very durable with a rating of 400 pound capacity for the seat. The chair is light weight at a little less then 7 pounds. From what I can see the bleacher seats only come in black. There is an option to order them in pairs making the cost less per chair.


This is the replacement for having to rent bleacher seats at a stadium for events. Those can be expensive and usually weight a lot more than 7 pounds. This does make a long sit on those metal or wood bleachers much more comfortable.


Okay the durablity of this chair is really good. The chair frame is made from square tubing. The seat support is made from a solid metal rod. The entire frame is made from metal therefore if you drop it, it will survive. The cloth of the chair back and seat are sewn with strong thread with a good stitch pattern. There are 2 rubber lines on each of the base of the seat that are rivitted to the square tubing.


This chair having the rubber strips on the bottom make the chair that much better. If you have ever been to a high school game you know that the kids will start stomping their feet to cheer the team on. These rubber strips reduce some of that vibration to your body.


To put this seat into place is very easy. It may be more difficult finding where you want to set versus setting up this seat. What you have to do is there is a rod on the bottom. Swing it out so it is a U-shape to the bleacher. Now set the seat on the bleacher making sure that the rod is under the the bleacher. From there you unfold the seat and it is set up and ready to go. Having the metal rod under the bleacher bench makes sure you do not role over on your back if you lean back into the chair.


If you are in the market or need a much more comfortable chair at those games this is a chair you should consider. It is very durable, lightweight enough for a long carry, and will work for a person up to 400 pounds. I would like to thank House and affiliates for sending me this bleacher seat to try out and share my opinion.
