Today I'm talking about the Kobalt brand 8 in 1 Faucet wrench. What I like about it and what I'm not so thrilled about. Then I'll tell you how I rank it in my toolbox.
I agree about the play in the plastic body. The other issue I have is the the different size wrenches are basically inaccessible if you're trying to remove a nut that is screwed fast to a surface or undersurface. There are different sizes in the cylinder, but you can't get to them.
I'm currently trying to change the kitchen sink. Thank you so much for your input on this. The faucet nut has so much rust, so telling us about the play this has lets me know I may break it off because of the rust buildup. Thank you again!
I've been using mine at work for about 1 year. I done got some slick with it I don't have to lay underneath the sink anymore. Wrap it around the water line and you done.
I bought a Ridgid as I thought it would be the safest bet. It is a terrible fit on plastic tab nuts. Way to big and sloppy. There is a metal insert that fits 4 tabs, but it is very shallow. Don't know who makes a good one. The one thing you really need these for is getting those stuck tab nuts off. I spent 45 minutes on one the other day. The Ridgid is very poor at that task.
