Good for shearing bolts and breaking knuckles. (please read update)
Junk. First time out of the box, using it to torque 100 ft/lbs on a sway bar link, no click, no click, no click, shear the bolt. Checked it against one of the old beam style wrenches, not even close. One smashed thumb and a bolt that is hard to find a replacement for, won't be buying this brand again. Yes, I watched and followed the instructions, not new to mechanics. Guess it will make a great paper weight as I see no return option.
Update: I'm an idiot. When I'm wrong I admit it and I was most definitely wrong in this case. When I was setting the torque value I was setting one setting too high which isn't hard to do, the markings are a little ambiguous but once I figured out to set it at the very bottom of the torque value it worked like a charm.
