Amazon Basics Self-Adjusting Wire Stripper and Crimping Tool, Strips 10-24 AWG, Black/Red

I think one reviewer said not well built for a contractor type work. Maybe so but I found it to be well made, sturdy and easy to use. I had a very small and fine wire that had been chewed through. I had to cut, strip and then splice them together. Using the tool it was easy to adjust and stripped the small wire perfectly. I think it is a great buy.

This is a great wire stripper for all size wires. It will strip back wires on those flimsy test leads to your electrical wires in your home. I really got it for cutting back electrical wires when I put in new outlets in my home, it does a nice job. I was really impressed when I used it to strip back those flimsy tests leads I used in my hobby electronics projects, that's why the 5 star rating.m

Seems to be high quality and working almost as well as the expensive ones. Definitely good enough for home hobby use

I have used every function these strippers have to offer and I'm really happy with it. My one gripe is that it seems to slip on some wires which requires me to hold the gripping jaw closed with my free hand. This design allows you to strip wires quickly, and the guide allows you to quickly set the depth. I do worry about the quality of the red adjustable stopper because it's plastic and sometimes it gets in the way. That can be resolved by unlocking it and extending it outwards. A few times, a piece of insulation gets stuck in the inner workings and stops it from functioning, but you can tip it over and the loose piece will fall out. Otherwise, the build quality feels great. It's sturdy and the handle design that includes various sized crimpers has proven to be handy. I can't attest to the longevity of the blades, but I'm sure they'll last a while.

Failed on the second wire I used it on. It worked perfectly on the first wire I tried and then it will not clamp hard enough anymore to strip any of the other wires I attempted. Unfortunately there appears to be only a 30 refund/replacement period with no warranty so I’m out of luck. Beware.

Great product at a great price!! I would highly recommend!! Excellent product and I really love it!! its a Great product at a great price!! I would highly recommend it!! it's an Excellent product and I really love the quality and the description was really accurate. Seller makes a great product and I would highly recommend!!

Auto wire stripper seems functional and will definitely be adequate until I decide I need a nicer one(coming from a LOT of use on some *ok quality normal-type wire strippers). The crimp tool however is awful in some situations. Writing this review a couple days after receiving but the first crimps I did turned out fine although they were a little awkward but the ones I attempted today were painful and are still not proper, even after multiple tries. The crimp tool shape seems less refined/maybe weaker materials compared to my ENGINEER PA-20(used for crimping much smaller wires) but in short, I purchased this tool because my big-wire crimper was cheaply made and didn't perform well and now I still need to purchase another crimp tool for bigger wires.

The product page says that the thinnest wire it will strip is 24 gauge (.51mm) but I have need to strip 28 gauge (.32 mm) wires, significantly thinner. I tried it with those skinny wires anyway, and what do you know? It works great on the 28 gauge wires! I will say that the instruction sheet is not very helpful in general. But the videos make up for that. And you cannot beat the price. The identical tool at Home Depot costs $22, more than twice as much.

Good Built Quality, Highly recommend

Works pretty well. Has a tendency to strip the wrong side of the wire. Can't really complain for the price.

Pince très pratique qui concentre toutes les fonctionnalités pour s'occuper d'un câble électrique ! Elle a également l'air robuste, à voir dans le temps.

Buena relación calidad precio. No es para uso profesional pero cumple con su función.

I bought this tool because by and large Amazon Basics has been reliable, good quality, and competitively priced for all its products, in my experience, thus far. This wire-stripper was no exception. The build quality is good, the tool does exactly as advertised, strips wire easily, no headache, no calibration, no need to even double check. I've used it to strip extremely small wires (for circuit boards), as well as jack cables for guitars, and it does everything I've tried equally well so far. I've noticed that some people bought the product expecting it to strip extremely large / thick gauge wires (nothing of consumer level for sure), and were therefore disappointed to learn that it doesn't do that job too well, but considering their expectations were set far too high, and that they would require specialty tools for those gauges of wire, they can't really blame the product. Like I said, I've been splitting quarter inch jack cables regularly for the last month with no difficulty at all, and I can't anticipate any issues in the future either. The only con (in my opinion) is the wire cutter element (just above the crimping section) could have been a little sharper, and it does almost press the sheath every time it makes cuts, but once again, that's a super minor complaint, and honestly one that is easily solved by a little sharpening. Bottom line is that I would (and already have) recommended this to most of the people I know.
