abunda_amazon_reviews Like another customer here, I purchased this for some automotive work (mainly removal of tires). Worked fine for one tire rotation. Then the second time I used it it completely broke at the point where the socket attaches. The bolts were torqued on well below the stated upper limit of this breaker bar. Resulted in a scuff to one of my rims... very disappointed.;;Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Very disappointed;;cheekymonkey;;;I purchased this and unlike others, I ever used it. It sat in the back of my truck in a bin with sockets and two bottle jacks. Within 4 months of purchase I needed to use it. Unfortunately it was broken. The roll pin/pin had come out from the vibration of my truck. I was not at all pleased with the walk back to camp and then back to my truck for a tire tool. Spend your money on another brand.;;Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2018;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Don’t waste your money;;J.H.;;;I bought this to remove lug nuts. The part that you attach the socket to instantly broke within the first 30 seconds of using it. I would go with something more heavy duty for lug nuts and/or automotive use.;;Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Not for automotive use...;;AlanB;;;Granted the bolts were seized and required some pretty good force to pop off, but you get what you pay for here, I feel like I broke this one, along with the 3/8 inch drive breaker bar, within 3 uses.;;Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Poorly constructed, snapped the head swapping out tires.;;iJKJames;;;I had to change out the brake rotors on a certain German Racing SUV and the removal of the calipers called for removing bolts that were torqued at 210-220 ftlbs. The 24" length of the Capri Tools breaker bar made the job real easy. Just make sure any socket adapter or the actual socket/bits are rated up to the necessary torque and that you're as PERPENDICULAR AS POSSIBLE! Deviation from 90 degrees will distribute the torque unevenly over the drive face and/or pivot pin and you're liable to twist the head off. If you must use a longer socket or multiple adapters, have a helper hold the head down with their foot if possible so the axis doesn't wobble. If you need to use a pipe to extend the handle, then you're trying to break a screw that is torqued down at a higher rating than this bar - go up one size to the 3/4" drive.;;Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2017;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Withstood above 200 ftlbs of torque;;Hybernator;;;This is a 3.5 star item. Not quite a 4, but better than a 3 star. The swivel head joint has a fair amount of slop / play in it. It you like precision in your tools (as i do) then you will be a little disappointed. The finish is on par with the price.. this is no Snap-on chrome finish, but it is no snap on price either. In my opinion, the handle end that you push on is pretty narrow. Not very big around (circumference). It should be thicker. What this means, is that putting a lot of force on the bar (as you would expect with a 1/2 drive) concentrates too much PSI on your palm of your hand... that is... you are pushing this thing down with a lot of force typically, and it is narrow enough it hurts a bit on your palm. Functionally it works fine. The design of the end of the handle could be larger around to relieve pressure on your palm, and the finish is 'good' quality, no more. So price point / functionality wise... it is a 'good' quality tool. Note.. I happened to notice after I bought this that the Cobalt 1/2 drive at Lowes is the exact same unit, only with a Cobalt name on it. Go trake a look at Lowes to see if you like it, and if you do, maybe the Amazon price will be better.;;Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2016;;3.0 out of 5 stars;;Functionally a good tool, but medium quality finish;;Jim D;;;So Far so good. Feels Great in hand. The Quality appears to be right on point. I'm ever so thankful for the design of the grip. I personally hate tools that have a plastic or rubber grip. I like to be able to drop & slide my tools on the cement without having to worry about damaging the handle. I've had a few test runs with this breaker bar on some lug nuts just to try it out. So Far so good. In the future if this breaker bar breaks on me I will Update my review and drop my five star rating down to a 2. If Capri Tools honors there life time warranty I will bump it back up to a 4. But that's even If we cross that bridge as of now I'd Say Five Out Of Five. Great tool, Great Quality!;;Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2017;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Feels Good;;Jason Sanchez;;;This thing is a HOSS! I bought it to break some lugnuts free that even my impact wrench was having issues with. I know what they rate the bar as in regards to what it can handle, but I stood on the end of it to break some of those lugs free, and it just flexed a little. Full grown man, over 200lbs and it just took me standing on the end like it was another day in the park. For the price, I figured it would break, but it didn't. I'm completely happy with it.;;Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2018;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;over 200lbs and it just took me standing on the end like it was another day in the park;;Jay Stretton
