    great for the price October 12, 2010

    I was skeptical of this tool when I first purchased because of the price. Similar valve compressors sell easily twice the cost of this one. I'm very happy that I purchased it, because it has worked flawlessly so far. I use this compressor for small engine work, and for that purpose, it works great.

    The Craftsman Valve Spring Compressor is an efficient tool February 21, 2011

    The value of this tool is second to none. Once you have the tool set up for your valve springs you can move at a decent pace to change out your springs much faster. The style of compressor that has the lever on top that you rotate to compress the spring against two teeth is much slower and more dangerous to use. Once you get the hang of this tool it really is not bad to use. The only thing I am not sure of are the jaws that hold the spring the seem somewhat weak but for the price it really is fine. Good tool to have cant complain. Unless you want to spend A LOT more i recommend this tool all the way.

    Lightweight tool - would not recommend November 28, 2011
    By D19407 of San Antonio, TX
    Cons:
    Jaws somewhat flimsy,Frame could be stronger

    This tool failed on my third valve - I will be returning it for a refund. Its very light and cheaply made - I would not recommend this tool for anything but very lightweight use.

    Crafstman Valve Spring Compressor not fancy but gets it done April 18, 2011
    By HonestBroker of Lincoln, NE
    Pros:
    Great value
    Cons:
    Jaws somewhat flimsy,Frame could be stronger

    If you only plan on using this tool for a job or two it works just fine and is a great value at $20. If you are planning on buying a tool for use on a more permanent basis you should look elswhere. This tool would not hold up long as a shop mechanics tool if they were going to do valave jobs on a consistant basis but I needed it for a one time use and will keep it in case I need it again in the future.
