This tool is fantastic and I couldn't believe how quickly it arrived at my house in Australia from the states.

I'm not sure why this item costs as much as it does but I've found it to be functional

Amazing tool! I'd give it 10 stars.
Why? - 04/18/2017
I bought this tool with a lot of excitement. Firstly, it's tiny and doesn't have a lot of uses, but I held it in a crate for a week or two before it got any use, and by then, the switch that changes the direction of the ratchet had already stopped functioning and I am now stuck with a speed wrench that goes one direction.

Then it on the wrench fell out after two days of use. I was able to save the bit and used lock-tite to secure it and seems to be holding up. But 30 bucks for a tool that breaks with two days of light use is not acceptable in my book. I like the design but the poor quality sucks!

$30 for a speed wrench that breaks after one day on the job? No thanks. Awesome form-factor but the allen bit does not flow through the head of the wrench, which means it will fall out easily. I had thought it was permanently attached but I was wrong. Definitely not worth $30. Grips need sturdy, reliable tools, and these wrenches don't cut it. Not sure about the lifetime warranty BS either.

I was so happy to have this wrench in my pocket instead of a big set of allen keys. However on the second shoot I used this on the bit popped out into some tall grass as I was adjusting an overhead. I was not able to find it. When I looked at the `wrench`, there was glue residue flaking out, the bit on this thing is only glued in, not a welded, socketed or locked in piece by any means. Furthermore, the hole that is left doesn't appear to be of a size where I can find a replacement. Filmtools won't respond to my emails about returning this unsatisfactory product. BUYER BEWARE, THIS PRODUCT IS CHEAPLY MADE

I've had so many 3/16` Speedrail Wrenches through the years, non have held up well. This one is top shelf in every way. Go on and gettcha one.
Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
