PEX CUTTER SET

This is nicely built, reasonably priced PVC pipe cutter for the home toolbox. I had a 100 ft. long garden hose that I needed to cut into shorter lengths in order to dispose of it, and this cutter made the job much easier. It feels stable in the hand, and cuts accurately and quickly. It took me a few seconds to figure out how to use it (the cutter needs to be pried open after each completed cut). The racheting feature means it takes less effort to cut through thicker material. The extra blade is a nice bonus to have too as I'm not sure if there are any replacement blades available for this cutter. Very good cutter for the home (occasional) user.

Great addition to my service trucks. I use these on our service trucks. We operate an Electrical & Plumbing service. All the vans/trucks have a pair of these onboard. I realize you can cut PVC with many tool once you're a journeyman, but when you're training apprentices this is a great tool that ensures straight accurate cuts and less waste, when paired with a tape measure. We all had to learn!

it broke on the first use but they reply to me and they send me a replacement quickly. I liked that from a company, i haven't used it yet but as long as it don't break then I'm happy.

Very well made, super sharp and easy to cut in tighter spots

I watched the videos and advise everyone buying this tool to watch them too. The hints about how to manipulate the tool for small or soft pipe are worthwhile and while I didn't need the hint for cold weather (It was 93 degrees in the shade here when I tested it) I'm sure that the hint to heat up the pipe in cold weather with some hot water or other heat (blow dryer, heat gun) to keep it from shattering or splintering while cutting would be too. The thing I was most concerned about was whether I would have the hand strength to use it. I am over 72 years old, female and have disabling conditions in hands and arms that make them pretty weak. These cut without excessive force having to be applied to the handles. I discovered a couple "hints" myself (maybe people who work with PVC cutters know these things but this is my first time with cutters like these. I have struggled with hacksaws and sawsall, dremel tools, etc in the past and this was the easiest ever and best part, no electricity needed). First, work on a solid surface if possible. Lay the pipe down flat, and put the cutters around it. It is easier to make a perfect level right angle cut across the whole pipe. If you have to cut where you can't lay the pipe flat, take a couple seconds to make sure its at the right angle when you first engage the cutter edge and if not, adjust it then. Second, don't rush it. It will be quick enough, trust me. Don't rush the compression on the handles and don't try to use it like scissors on paper. Press the ratchet handles together slowly, and take a second or two between each cut to check your position and stability as well as that of the tool. That's about it. Very pleased so far. I have made about ten cuts on my project so far including two practice cuts. I got better at it. The tool does not feel loose or stressed and the cutter blade seems to be as sharp on each one, so far. I gave 3 stars for accuracy which may be unfair to the tool, because I had a few that were not perfectly even. But that just means that the tool doesn't quite do everything for you. I had a "learning curve" and I'm still on it. But there were NO burrs or splinters and no cuts that I could not use to fit into and glue the pipe and joiners up tight. If it fell apart today, I would still feel like I got my money's worth, frankly, it saved so much time and agita.

Nicely packaged -- a thoughtful (and utilitarian) touch to use the three rolls of PTFE (aka Teflon) thread tape as padding to stop the contents moving during shipping. The tools themselves are reasonably sturdy and not of a terrible quality and the package provides a good combination of tools. The description says "up to 1-1/4-inch" and "cuts various plastic materials (PVC,CPVC,PP-R, PEX, PE, Rubber Hose etc.)" but I purchased for use on just two sizes of PVC (1/2" and 3/4") and didn't find it easy to produce a consistent square cut on just a few cuts of either size. Not even securing the pipe in a grove on a benchtop, to keep it straight and prevent moving, gave better results and in an effort to cut all the way through the 1/2" PVC pipe in one go I got my hand a nasty pinch for my troubles. The tool is not of the ratcheting type so, if you can't cut all the way through in one go, there will be movement and the cut produced is unlikely to be parallel all the was round or orthogonal to the length of the pipe). The movement may be less on pipes that fill the jaws/cup and your technique may improve with practice. For a very small number of cuts over time it may be worth persevering but I'm inclined to seek out an inexpensive alternative with a ratcheting design. Impressed enough overall with the brand though that I will definitely check out if they have such an offering. UPDATE 19-FEB --- adding a star for quality of manufacturer/seller response. Very impressed with the sellers interest in the feedback and in making it right. As I mentioned in my initial review the difficulty was one of usability (especially for infrequent home use) and the lack of an ratcheting offering by the same brand for a reasonable additional outlay (there was a huge step up in price for the least expensive ratcheted version, which was as expensive as the larger and more expensive option that could handle wider pipes). The seller followed up to understand the usage challenges to see if they could help but unfortunately I'd glued the cuts as I'd finished the project. However, as part of my response I gave some feedback about the usage challenges and benefit of a ratcheted option at a price point reasonable for those who would use infrequently (with comparisons of price for options available from lower cost hardware retailers). They appear to have taken that to heart with a significant price adjustment for the lowest cost ratcheted product they provide, so I will be returning and getting one of those instead. Clearly, this is a seller that has great interest in the quality of the products they offer, understanding customer feedback/concerns and then providing exceptional customer service to make it right. The products have a good build quality and I would look very favorably on purchasing from this seller for any future needs.

It cut the 1 1/2 pvc pipe within seconds - like butter. Tools was easy to handle.

Both cutters worked great at the start but in August of 2026 the small one fell apart. Some of the internal plastic parts just broke off and it locked up.

si vous chercher une pince pour le multicouche ou les tuyaux pvc c'est celle la qu'il vous faut elle est vraiment top de top

Very useful tools.

Good

Unfortunately the blade will no longer retract . It worked good then I went to make another cut and there is no way to make the blade retract. Caused a problem on my Job I’m disappointed. Update: there is a black pin that is on the side. After using the cutters it can come loose. Just put come epoxy or whatever to make sure it stays in place. If you lose it, the cutter won’t work. I was able To find mine after it came out and once I put it back in, it works as it should. I may have been a bit upset in my earlier review , but I didn’t have another set of cutters with me and it caused a work stoppage. Really , it’s an excellent unit, just gotta make sure that pin doesn’t work itself out.
