### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ need better quality control
*by W***I on 5 January 2026*

use it a bit seem sturdy but one of the file have it teeth missing on two side they need to make sure all of them have their teeth before sending it out.If it did i would have given it a better review for it came with glove and the case is sturdy and have space to put other stuff in.Notice it was made in china they need better quality control for the price paid it seem a bargain and if it last a long time it would be well worth it.Got a few job doing going to see how it hold up.By the way for the price there are other in the same price so get this at a discount and it a bargain.
