Bad quality, spend more money and buy a better tool.
I have used tools like this in the past and all was fine, but this one crimped and distorted the copper pipe almost beyond use. I think because the size of the bore within the head of the tool which is supposed to clamp the copper is too small. This meant the two parts of the head didn't come together properly & the flairing inserts skipped on the threads as I tried to tighten them. If I tried to close the threads by tightening & clamping the copper pipe harder, it deformed and left ridges in the copper pipe & the head of the flair was rough and ineffective. Waste of money, buy a proper tool.

Does the job
I bought this because my trusted sealey 1 stripped the threads on the die and I needed 1 for the next day, I have to say it worked as well as the sealey 1 only bad thing about it is the track that the sits in is a bit tight but it definitely worth the time and effort for me to file or machine it out a bit so that it's ready for me to use the next time

Good value tool that works well
Great tool but would be better if they also supplied the Allen key needed to use it.However the tool works well and is quite sturdy for regular usage.

Ideal for what it is required to do.
Needed to replace a brake pipe that failed on an MOT. This was ideal and does all flaring ends required. Not used one for years, but worked really well and job done in 5 minutes.

Handle needs better QC threads pulled.
The handle threads failed, damaged the handle, can be fixed, but I didn't buy the tool to fix it.I bought this to flare a pipe on the car, without removing it, it worked well bar the handle failing.The handle was poorly fitting out of the box, I'd like a replacement, but I fear it would break anyway.
