Customers are mixed about the ease of cutting with some saying it cuts well and makes a solid crimp, while others say that it doesn't always cut all the way across, does not trim the wires that stick out, and is too aggressive and sometimes cuts into interior wire.

"...It strips the 4P wire cleanly as well. It feels well built for every day use." Read more

Customers are mixed about the fit of the crimping pliers. Some mention that it fits perfectly, the cable fits and cuts just fine, and the design was easy to adjust to.
