Nice but .... [Posted on 2007-11-23]
They are nice and work fine but one of each pair I bought (the ones with the black outside) came broken. Since it happened on both pairs, I presume it's a manufacture flaw.

Potential weakness in design [Posted on 2008-02-26]
I bought 2 sets of these clamps. I've used these type before. To me they are an absolute necessity for anyone putting 2 pieces of wood together (3/4' or less).

In my first use of these Jet clamps one of the clamps from each set broke. One clamp has red plastic, the other black. The black plastic broke on a line between the screws that hold it to the spring metal. And both black clamps broke.

When I contacted the supplier they immediately called back and offered my money back or a replacement. I didn't think twice about accepting the replacement, because they are great tools., I was told if they broke again I could ge a refund. What's better than that?

Nice design, poor quality [Posted on 2008-03-12]
Broke on first use. When I received product I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the "clamps", They were more substantial in size than I had expected. I was building some drawers out of 5/8" stock and decided I'd see if the clamps would support the joints (just to see how they worked). The 1st attempt at attaching the the corner snapped the top plastic piece. I put the product back in the plastic case and call Amazon for a return. They promptly e-mailed me a RA# as well as supplied a prepaid return OK. Very disapointed with product, but at least pleased with Amazon.

Ends the frustration of assembling cabinet panels [Posted on 2008-07-05]
These clamps work great and make assembling cabinet panels so much easier. The spring clamps automatically hold your panels flush and has an index mark for interior panels and do not interfere with nail guns, etc. No more trying to balance plywood panels while looking for a bar clamps or drill. The clamps come in package of two (one left, one right). They also come with two plastic shims????? of whose purpose not specified in the package or directions. Since they are the same thickness as the clamp top, I believe they are a spacer to keep the panel level when resting on the clamp. I highly recommend this product.

really brittle plastic [Posted on 2008-07-07]
I got these to help with holding material while I glued and nailed or screwed... The first one I got out of the package, broke within about 20 minutes. I dropped it off the work bench (I know I dropped it, but sometimes that happens) and the plastic casing that holds it together completely shattered. I like the concept of using it like a "third hand," but the product needs to be built better.
