First time using it to cut 1 1/2” pvc, worked great. Like a knife cutting through butter. Good seller, would buy from them again

Excellent Seller!!.. The tool is very good.

Excellent product, works great on Sch40 2" PVC pipe, but it cannot cut 2.5" Sch 40 PVC pipe, as the pipe OD is larger than 2.5 inches. I thought the spec allowed this cutter to cut 2.5 : PVC pipe. Nope. Disappointing.Needs 1/4" wider opening.

Very sharp tool easily cuts through PVC. I felt much safer using this instead of my saw. Much quicker too.

i did more than four hundred meeters of irigation system at my farm, this worked very good, nice cuts, still haven't changed the blade, got wet, a lot of soil on it, just washed it and still working , one of my favorites, no more saw cutting now

Old PVC pipe cutter's blade failed after about 15 cuts due to teeth that moves the blade failed.Decided to purchase this higher end replacement.This cutter had high reviews, so spent more money to get better toolFirst use was to make a couple cuts in 3/4" schedule 40 pvc tubingAfter just the second cut the tool failed.Operating the squeeze handle failed to close the bladeThis was exactly the same failure that my previous cutter had.Poor design, the cutter functions by moving a very thin blade by engaging teeth on back side to lever.The teeth wore down in the first use.After extensive research, it seems most PVC cutters use this same poor design. The cutter "gear" wears away with little use.Did not return because it was not worth the effort to drive to the closest drop off center, and determined othercutters, despite the price, were no better because of the similar poor design of the blade operation.Lots of better ways to cut PVC pipe: Hack saw, SawsAll, Skil Saw, Miter box, and Battery powered Cutting tools.Note: I purchase a lot through Amazon and have always been satisfied - first unsatisfactory experience.This product deserves my Rating of 1 Star

I bought these for a backyard fountain project. I had to cut a lot of 1 1/2” pvc pipe. They worked great! Blade is not as sharp now but still cuts nice…just needs a little more ummpf.

Nicely packaged -- a thoughtful (and utilitarian) touch to use the three rolls of PTFE (aka Teflon) thread tape as padding to stop the contents moving during shipping. The tools themselves are reasonably sturdy and not of a terrible quality and the package provides a good combination of tools. The description says "up to 1-1/4-inch" and "cuts various plastic materials (PVC,CPVC,PP-R, PEX, PE, Rubber Hose etc.)" but I purchased for use on just two sizes of PVC (1/2" and 3/4") and didn't find it easy to produce a consistent square cut on just a few cuts of either size. Not even securing the pipe in a grove on a benchtop, to keep it straight and prevent moving, gave better results and in an effort to cut all the way through the 1/2" PVC pipe in one go I got my hand a nasty pinch for my troubles. The tool is not of the ratcheting type so, if you can't cut all the way through in one go, there will be movement and the cut produced is unlikely to be parallel all the was round or orthogonal to the length of the pipe). The movement may be less on pipes that fill the jaws/cup and your technique may improve with practice. For a very small number of cuts over time it may be worth persevering but I'm inclined to seek out an inexpensive alternative with a ratcheting design. Impressed enough overall with the brand though that I will definitely check out if they have such an offering.UPDATE 19-FEB --- adding a star for quality of manufacturer/seller response.Very impressed with the sellers interest in the feedback and in making it right. As I mentioned in my initial review the difficulty was one of usability (especially for infrequent home use) and the lack of an ratcheting offering by the same brand for a reasonable additional outlay (there was a huge step up in price for the least expensive ratcheted version, which was as expensive as the larger and more expensive option that could handle wider pipes).The seller followed up to understand the usage challenges to see if they could help but unfortunately I'd glued the cuts as I'd finished the project. However, as part of my response I gave some feedback about the usage challenges and benefit of a ratcheted option at a price point reasonable for those who would use infrequently (with comparisons of price for options available from lower cost hardware retailers). They appear to have taken that to heart with a significant price adjustment for the lowest cost ratcheted product they provide, so I will be returning and getting one of those instead.Clearly, this is a seller that has great interest in the quality of the products they offer, understanding customer feedback/concerns and then providing exceptional customer service to make it right. The products have a good build quality and I would look very favorably on purchasing from this seller for any future needs.
