Amazon Basics Self-Adjusting Wire Stripper, Black/red

I love this tool,it saves so much time, no more paring down cable with my knife or trying to strip off an outer sheathing without damaging the cable inside it, this tool does it all, and does it perfectly it is accurate when it cuts and does it in one action brilliant. If your doing electrical work like wiring a loft or garage you need this tool I recommend it to all DIY people.

These are ok, about the same as my Stanley ones. I find they work well but sometimes I can’t get them to grip the wire sheath properly, even after adjusting the jaws. My Stanley ones do the same. That said they do give a nice clean cut and they do speed up wire stripping.

Works just as well as branded products. At a fraction of the price.

A very useful wire stripper which cuts accurately - Crimping device on the handles is not so good.

These wire strippers are good value for money. They do the job well, feel robust and are good quality. For hobby use, I think they are perfect.

Met a need but frankly will pay more for a decent set of strippers in future. I have always been a knife and pliers type of guy when doing electrical work. However on a recent project I didn't have a lot of spare cable to play with and needed to get in tight to a ceiling to strip cable and wire. The tool tends to get the first cut good but then sticks or jams on subsequent strips and I seems to need to exercise the tool closed/open listening for a click before it will work again. However in most cases the actual cuts both to outer insulation on twin and earth cable, and stripping individual conductors were fine. But the time wasted resetting it each time reduced its value to me. I suspect it will lose it's effectiveness over time as it's fairly cheaply made and will probably get a decent set at that time.

Struggles on thick 2.5 cable a bit at times but anything smaller it works well on. It could be a bit sturdier but it is a really handy but if kit especially if you snip the wires instead of removing the sheath habitually.. Good grip. Comfortablecto use. It really speeds up the process. No seller issues

Makes my work easier, should have bought one years ago, excellent quality.

I'm not using these for heavy duty daily electrician work, but for simply wire stripping they are great. Easily adjustable, saving time and wire (due to my prior unwanted slicing through insulation and miscellaneous copper strands). Should have bought this tool years ago. Thrilled with this purchase.

Wish I had these years ago. They strip great and seem to be well made. Hopefully they work well for many years.

For home handyman does everything needed. Good quality tool.

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.

Sinceramente no se como he podido vivir sin ésta herramienta. Vale, no vas a montar la instalación de un bloque de viviendas entero con ella, o sí, depende de tu habilidad, pero para un uso doméstico es como un destornillador o alicate, IMPRESCINDIBLE en un hogar para pequeñas o medianas instalaciones. Funciona bien y sin muchas complicaciones, colocas el cable, apretas y lo pela. el ajuste es por si se vá de tamaño el hilo y no lo pilla bien. En los chinos venden uno que te cuesta la mitad claro, pero ni de lejos tiene ésta calidad.
