Decent Clamp set [Posted on 2006-11-25]
I have had this clamp set for about 1 year. It is OK at best. There isn't alot of clamping strengeth or length to use with these clamps. I find myself using them more for light strenght hold downs (clamping something I"m going to hold into place while I glue and shoot nails into). The spreader clamp feature is OK, but remember these are plastic clamps with spring triggered clamping pressure, there is only so much strength and resistance these can be forced to apply. I use these enough to not give away, but can't see myself ever needing another set.
Excellent product, good price [Posted on 2007-01-03]
Only regret is that I didn't buy them sooner. Nice assortment, hold well and very handy.

Clamps work well though one-hand operation of the features required to engage and disengage the clamps is a bit difficult on some models and of course one generally only has one hand free. As clamps go though these are some of the best I have used.
Everyone Needs Clamps [Posted on 2007-01-10]
I read lots of reviews, but rarely write them. I am a part time remodeler. I work alone lots of the time and could not do some of the jobs I do w/o one-handed quick clamps. They hold pieces plumb and level and tight together for fastening w/o a helper. This set is great for the price because you get 2- 12" bigger clamps with the ability to remove and heads and use them as a spreader (ie. push up and hold a length of fencing level, when working alone) 2- 6" thinner clamps (nice size to hold pieces of material for cutting etc)and the 2- small hand clamps which are handy for holding down plywood or a guide for cutting plywood. A useful assortment for a wide range of jobs. Get it when Amazon is having a sale and it is a "no brainer". You will be surprised at the uses you will find for these clamps. I have even used them for some glue-ups but pony clamps are generally better for that.
Clamp anything, nearly anywhere. [Posted on 2008-03-01]
I already had a pair of Irwin's mini slide clamps for small art projects. I recently moved up to larger projects doing more seious wood working. Since I live in an apartment, space is very limited. (I do my work outside on the deck. Too narrow and not strong enough for a real workbench.) So, adding the Irwin clamp set to my Black and Decker WM125 Workmate 125 Portable Work Bench made a huge difference. Their versatility in clamping and ease of use allows me to make much greater use of the Workmate workstation, including as a base for my Dremel 220-01 Rotary Tool Work Station.
I can clamp equipment in place, or, better yet, because of the ease of opening and closing Irwin's clamps, I can safely move a piece of material without taking my other hand off a tool or working piece.
