So much faster and easier than sweating pipe. Plumbed my mother in laws bathroom from a bath to a walk in shower in about an hour. I’ll never use flux and solder again. This thing is worth its cost easy.
Worked great for the money did main pipes at a house I have then did a job with it that let it pay for itself. If I was crimping everyday would get a automatic but it's a great tool to add if you are doing a few jobs here and there
