“Definately NOT worth the money.”
Craftsman 1/2 in. Impact Wrench —
Bought this impact wrench while working at a Toyota/Scion Car Dealership as a Service Tech thinkin "Hey its Craftsman, must be good, and 350 Ft.Lbs. has to be enough." IT WAS NOT. Especially since a tire rotate was an "every car" thing and this impact wrech would take 10 seconds on average to loosen and remove a lug-nut, bolt or nut. Unless it happened to be a lug-nut that someone put on at their home with hand tools where they didnt adequately tighten it. Needless to say I was wasting valuablle time. And any top make car dealership mechanic will tell you that speed along with quality is necessary. On average a oil/filter change w/ tire rotate and complete 19 point inspection which includes inspecting about every aspect of the vehicle along with filling all fluids and putting the before and after results on the inspection sheet takes about 20-25 minutes and this impact wrench really hinders that kind of performance. Yeah this impact wrench might be adequate for someone just doing yer every now and then home work on their vehicle but for the professional its worthless. Take my advice and spend the extra few bucks to get something with a 500 Ft.Lbs. + rating.Craftsman 1/2 in. Impact Wrench
