A review of the torque wrench and a review of the reviewersJan 19, 2010
By B. Brodie Everything works as advertised with this wrench. It's marked N-m and ft-lbs. My only negative so far is that you can't hear a click at the lower torque ranges, you have to look for the head to snap if you want to torque at the lower settings.
Regarding the other reviewers issues. I agree with the one poster who said it's hard to determine which increment you're on with wrench. You are always a small bit below when you get to one of the torque scale marks (or is it high :)).
To the reviewer who couldn't move the wrench past 30ft-lbs, that is because there is a lock nut on the bottom of the wrench that you have to loosen to get up higher. This nut is retighten when you get to your desired torque setting. I though the same thing when I couldn't move the wrench past 70ft-lbs, but I loosened it up and it went all the way up to 80ft-lbs as expected.
Also, it seems some people's wrenches are marked in inch-pounds, I recently got my wrench an it only had ft-lbs and N-m, so they may have change this or it may vary depending on which you get.

Torque WrenchMay 10, 2008
By David L. Loflin I am a full time mechanic. I did not feel the need for a snap-on wrench at this time because i needed this wrench for the lower value foot lbs. The wrench works well and is accurate and should last me awhile with heavy use.

Just what I needed to finish my carNov 07, 2007
By James M. Van Emburgh Was just what I needed that allowed me to finish the work I was doing on my car without having to bother folks to use their torque wrench. Highly recommended for the price, since I am a "back yard" type guy I feel this will do the job for me for a long time.

Two issuesDec 21, 2008
By D. Biery
"JapanFan"
I bought this to do maintenance work on the impressive Toro 1800 bought from Amazon. It has two issues which prompted me to return the item. First issue, it only works on right handed threads meaning that it tightens and torque sets in a clock-wise motion. The other issue is the stamped scale. It does not line up. This one reads between 5lb. and 10lb. when lined up to 'zero' after rotating the end of the handle. This makes it difficult to determine which it is. Although I'm sure it's rather accurate to 4%, the quality of the calibration mixed with the omission concerning right/left handed-ness in the product description earned just a star.

Great value, works as expectedNov 13, 2010
By Shadowman For an amateur occasional mechanic (basic things like chaning oil or spark plugs) I've been happy with this wrench. Gets the job done. Reason it gets 4 instead of 5 stars is, like someone else mentioned, it's a bit difficult to read the numbers on the side. Also the markings are curved in such a way that makes it hard to tell whether you are at 20 or 25, for example.
Otherwise, it's a good value for someone who doesn't want to spend for professional-grade.
