Tools and Hardware Reviews of STRIPPER WIRE AUTOMATIC
Customer Review: This should be minus one star
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought one of these things just out of interest, as the design looks good, however I can not believe how rubbish they are. They are unable to strip anything, they barely able a dent in the insulation. I can do a better job with my teeth.
I have never before come across a product so pathetically unable to perform the task for which it was made, yet be so specifically designed as to have no other use. They're too light to even use as a hammer. Most Chinese junk works at least once (and usually only once) but these are something else.
Do a search on here, these things are listed several times, ranging from $1.19 to and unbelievable $16.58! I paid just over a dollar, and at that price the manufacturer, importer, and retailer are all making money. Let the 'made in China' label be your guide.
I ended up sneaking them into a mates tool box, just to get them out of mine. I can't believe I have to give them one star.....
Customer Review: Buy a box of them...
Summary: 2 Stars
This tool is incredibly poorly made. It stripped six 14 gauge braided wires before the jaws stopped clamping and cut exactly one 14 gauge wire before something inside snapped and the cutter stopped working.
Having said that, the design is wonderful--particularly if you're working jammed up under your dashboard like I was.
I wish I could find one of these made by a reputable manufacturer. Good tools are worth the money.
Customer Review: Poor construction, does not last long
Summary: 1 Stars
Luckily I found these on sale at Harbor Freight for $1.00, so I was not out much for my trouble.
I used it approximately 5 times before the teeth would no longer grip and the blades stopped holding. I tried using the adjustment knob, but it did not help. I used it only on small gauge wires (car stereo wiring harnesses), and it did not last long at all.
Save your money and get a better version.
Customer Review: Cheap Plastic Poo-Poo

I bought this exact item at Autozone for $9.99. It was in blister pack with the "Dorman" brand on it. I got hosed obviously.
Truth is, this is another one of those Boatload-Outta-China products that are sold under upteen thousand different brand names. You'll find 'em right here at Amazon being sold for just over a dollar under a different brand name.

Excellent idea with poor quality design. The idea is fantastic and when it worked it was the cats meow! But about 30 strips of 12-18ga wire later the black plastic handle just snapped off right at the hinge joint. Awesome for quick work in tight places, but I would never buy this model again. Off to look for a quality built version...
