Review: Perfect general purpose pliers - Robogrips were once a widely available and popular tool, when they were sold at Sears & Roebuck. Now they appear to be a very niche item with low availability. That's fine, but I believe more people can really benefit from a pair in their toolbox. Laminated steel construction, great torquey and ergonomic handles and auto adjustment combined with excellent construction and a simple design make for a tool that will last a lifetime with normal use. I keep one in every kit.
Review: I use these to open dried oil paint tubes...helps my arthritis - I just took up painting again and got out my 30 year old oil paints. If I could get the caps off, the paint was still good, but almost all needed pliers to open. Using regular pliers on the tubes, the tubes usually twisted and often broke. My sister, who has neuropathy, told me about these pliers. I was skeptical, but gave them a try. They are great! I have some arthritis in my hands so having a less painful way to open small things is wonderful. They now sit on my art table and I use them almost every time I paint. My guess is that these would be great for home projects because they wouldn't slip like other pliers. They grip better.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are robo-grips USA made?**
A: These are not the Craftsman Robo-grips and are NOT made in the USA.  They function like the original, but are not made as well.

**Q: I have arthritis and need them to open soda bottles.  Are they big enough?**
A: I just checked for you and you can just barely get the 7” around the cap and it will work but the larger robo grip worked with much more ease if you can grip the handle being that it’s larger. The opening size on the small 7” robogrip is 1 1/4” vs the larger model which has a 2” opening. Either way.... I would highly suggest you purchase both sizes as I’m sure they will provide endless uses for you with arthritis. Hands down, one of my favorite tools of all time.

**Q: where are these made?**
A: I don't know where they are made but I can tell you the awesome pliers.

**Q: Is the 7" large enough to work on garden hose connections?**
A: It opens to 1 1/4 inch,  that may not be big enough for a garden hose.  I have a 10"- 12" robo grip for bigger jobs.  They are great pliers!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential for my home tool box
*by L***G on August 26, 2024*

I grew up with a pair of Craftsman robo grip pliers but they don't make them anymore (at least anywhere I could find them). These are a great alternative. Grip is solid and firm. Must have for day-to-day fixit projects and furniture assembly.
