I use this for oil changes on my Toyota, all of which have a 14mm drain plug (as far as I know). The extra length makes for sensitive torque feel for me, easy to get the plug loosened and easy to feel the tightening torque curve without having to muscle a shorter wrench.Fit and finish are excellent, world-class I'd say. The broaching is also excellent with a "flank-drive" pattern (rounded "star" corners) that avoids rounding over fasteners. The box walls are very thin allowing the business end to be used when the fastener is close to some obstruction. The 0° head allows all the pressure applied to the end to go straight into torque and there is no tendency for the wrench to "roll" off of the fastener when applying higher pressure at the other end. This comes at the cost of needing room to swing the wrench, but is exactly what I was after in this case.Overall, an excellent wrench, very well made in Taiwan, I'd buy another and recommend.

This is the second or third wrench I have bought from Capri. For the money they are well made. Work great and durable.I will likely be buying more in the future as the need arises.

This wrench makes releasing the tension on a serpentine belt a breeze. I can't believe all the time I have wasted over the years trying to make the wrong type of wrench work when changing these belts. This is the right tool for the job, it will last a lifetime and it is well worth the money.

Update: 03202023Used it today on my brake job--the two tough 15 MM brake caliper bracket bolts. Had to use breaker bar, with 24" - 30" cheater bar; even tried a jack and impact wrench. The cheater bar on top of breaker bar did the trick to break the bolt, after PB Blaster.I tried the Gedore 9.5 " with a cheater bar and it began to bend, so I stopped. After the breaker + cheater bar broke it looser, this Capri at 14 inches had enough leverage to turn the tight bolt. The fact that the Capri had a slim head was helpful with access.Having used it, I am raising my rating from 3 stars to 5 stars. Length does matter, and this 14 inch Capri has the length--the Gedore, being 4.5 inches shorter could not give the same leverage.>>>Bought this for its 14 inch length to hopefully loosen stubborn brake caliper bracket bolts with more leverage. Instruction caution against use of wrench with cheater bar--hmm--is it not strong enough?Also bought a Gedore extra long which is shorter by 4 inches for the same purpose. The difference in quality of fit and finish between the two is telling--the Gedore is so much nicer, but does not have the length.The sides of this Capri wrench's bar (between the two heads) was wavy, not straight--had never encountered such before--made it suspect as being not well made--unless such is by design. Doesn't give confidence.Have not used it yet, will update upon use. However, not being able to use it with a cheater bar is a bummer. Guess I will have to stick with my breaker bar--but breaker bar and socket cannot fit as well as this slim head.Will have to use the Gedore with a cheater bar then, if this Capri wrench cannot do the trick by itself.

Had bolts on my water pump pulley behind the fan couldn’t get a socket or regular 10mm on this wrench is long enough to reach behind the fan and did the job easily lot of leverage also wide head fit the little 10 mm bolt perfectly! Would definitely recommend just have in your tool box!Mike

It holds up to most jobs. Minor metal movement when really putting alot of breakaway torque into something that is on there stubborn. You get what you pay for.The best quality wrenches like these easily cost $100, so Capri offers value fer sure. Good enough to do professional work for a couple years before the edges get a bit distorted. For Harry Homeowner, he won’t know the difference between this and Snap On or Matco, so good enough for government work if you follow me.

So think I've found a new excellent quality finished tool and tool company at a reasonable price this aviation spanner came up for under 40 quid now I've got snap and Mac and hazet bacho ext but the now premium price on all is just a joke last aviation spanner I got was a Britool expert and that was almost same price as this Capri but if I remember it was 18mm x 19mm so small size heads. I will be getting one or 2 more tools for Capri but as I'm now getting towards 50 an having to thik what's going on with me tools as the boy not interested and it's a heavy investment just to give away but I know I'll only get ¼back on actual price inc toolboxes so not worth continuing to build up a

The tool is handy when working on confined space. With this tool, I was able to work on my water pump removing certain bolts that is otherwise difficult with common hand tools.
