This tool made install the clips easy and could be done one handed. Also, less clips dropped. Glad I splurged on the tool and gave up on the pliers.

Don’t use on 1/4 in mesh. It’s a pain to get it in the spaces.

Used it on a practice test and easy to use and works really well. I am using it on fastening chicken wire on coupe. Well built.

They work fine but the handles will touch each other when completely closed, I used them for upholstery spring clamps because the brand that specializes in upholstery tools are useless and has negative reviews, the more I use this tool, the more I like it, the only negative is the handles touch each other in the complete closed position, but it works better than the specialized upholstery tools for upholstery spring clamps.

I have been building my own rabbit/quail/chicken cages and habitats for decades and always just purchased whatever was available at the hardware/feed store, which were just plain run of the mill pliers. I really wish I discovered these pliers sooner. They are much easier to grip, and with the way the ends are angled it makes it super easy to grab the wire with the pliers and pull it tight, instead of using your fingers and hoping you don't get pinched by the wire. I built a run for some peacocks over the weekend and estimate it took about 1/2 the usual time to connect all the hardware cloth, and even faster on the second layer using chicken wire. I woulds definitely recommend spending the extra $4 or $5 on these over the plain/standard versions available.

this tool works. To insert a j clip it must be opened completely and since it isn't spring loaded it requires both hands. the off set jaws are different but I think I will like that feature more as I use them. The J clips seem to have changed with a slight back bend that makes them straighter which might account for having to fully utilize two hands to load. So it is very time consuming when building large cages. tool quality good but it could have a spring to open jaws. the grips are good but didn't need to be so elaborate. It has the wide grip which is essential.

The tool is smaller than expected. That turned out to be a good thing as it is perfectly sized for the job, fits my large hand well enough and they are sturdily built with a good hinge joint like you'd find on Channelock tools of SnapOn. It took me about a minute to figure out how the clip goes in the tool. If you're right handed old the tool so the jaws point up and the opening pointing to the left and open the jaws fully. Insert the clip with the curved part down and the open side toward the open side of the jaws. Squeezing the pliers curls the clip into a perfect circle. Keep squeezing just a bit more after the circle is formed to overlap the joint slightly which keeps it secure. After inserting the uncurled clip into the pliers you can close the jaws a tiny bit to keep the clip from falling out while manipulating the clip around the wires.
