I picked this up for light to medium duty use in my garage workshop. I’m not a pro, just a hobbyist that likes to tinker with wood, small metal projects, and general DIY stuff. So far it’s been exactly what I needed. The vise feels sturdy and well built right out of the box. Jaws line up clean, no weird wobbles or play when you tighten things down. I’ve clamped wood, metal brackets, even held a pipe in there and it held fine.Mounting was pretty easy and once it’s bolted down it’s solid. The rotation feature is a nice touch too. Didn’t think I’d use it much but it’s come in handy more than I thought. If you’re doing precise machinist work or heavy duty fabrication everyday, you might want something bigger. But for hobby use this hits the sweet spot. Good value for the price and honestly it just works

Perhaps there's not much to a vise, but this one checks all the required boxes.Sturdy, adjustable, strong.

Vice broke and is hollow and weak where it shouldn't be. Look like pot metal after it broke, cast iron in this vice is very weak.

For the money, this was the best vice I could find. I installed it to an old Ikea rolling table/shelf/drawer unit for the Kitchen. A Kitchen Cart? I have been using the vice and I don't have any complaints so far. It feels solid. It would have been nice if hardware to bolt it down was provided, and I took off a star for that.

I was looking for a vise to mount on a worktable and this was perfect. It is solid and easy to install

Solidly made, stable and secure. Great value for money. Overall good quality and well made, noting only some burs from the casting that I had to file down before it could rotate on its base. The coating is a mixture of grey and black in a random pattern and appears to be very durable. Surfaces are well finished overall. Jaws open smoothly to about 3.25 inches and are replaceable. They meet evenly. The anvil is about 2.75 inches square. Vice has 3 attachment holes on its base and can be secured to a workbench with 3/8" through bolts. Swivel feature is secured with 2 screw clamps and is very stable. The vise rotates through about 150 degrees.

Had a lot of bench vices through 77 years, and I can assure you, this is really an excellent vice at a bargain price. Now, granted, it's small as vises go, but if your production or handyman needs fit this size, you can be certain it will help you get the job done like a steady third hand. It would be smart of this company to offer an accessory magnetic vinyl jaw set to fit the width of these jaws; I had to cut down a larger set to use the vice to cut tubular material. You won't be disappointed with this vice.

I was not expecting such quality for 20$ . it was a little big for my bumper so I mounted it on my latter rack. Great vise! Thanks
