I had a ton of rebar to cut for cosmetic garden purposes, love it! cannot wait to bend some and try different prjects that have been on the backburner!

Works great and I didn’t have sit on it to bend grade 60 rebar. I.found it great to cut with as well. Worth every penny.

Worked Perfectly, and a nice plus being able to bend 180 Degrees... Great price too.

Worked as advertised.

I have been using it for several weeks now without any issues. I have cut to size 3000' of #4 rebar. Do expect to larger than #4 rebar. Bender works well and can straighten some minor bent pieces.

Great product

Worked and can bend and cut #5 rebar.

It could use an extension on the handle. Used a length of 2.5 in thick wall PVC to get the necessary leverage for cutting 5/8" rebar. Did manage one cut without the extender but it was a struggle. The bends are not quite 180 degrees. Might be my technique. But, I would like a full 180 degree bend to hook landscaping pressure treated boards. So far it has been doing the job. Would rather have one made in the USA, this one is made in China.

I’ve used this on #3,4,5 rebar. It works great! Cutting and bending are flawless.

Works great so far. Should have bar extension provisions for leverage. Not everyone is 6 foot tall to get leverage to cut in one stroke (1/2" bar).

Awesome rebar bender, cutter. Very sturdy and strong. Working great!

So far had to cut 150 #4 and #5 schedule 60 rebar. Added a cheater bar to make it easier. Works great.

Revised Product Review - Cutter DOES cut 5/8" rebar, I did not notice the larger cutter in the front of the tool. My mistake. Have used almost daily for building foundation on new home.

Bender was advertised to cut 5/8 inch (#5) rebar, 5/8 inch rebar does not fit.

It works like it supposed to

Although it is a bit heavier than the images convey, it's an ideal tool for bending or cutting 3/8 or 1/2 rebar. Quick, accurate and safe.

I am happy with this tool. It is built strong. Handled #4 grade 40 bar without fail.

We bought this to cut and bend 290 pieces of schedule 60, #5 bar. We had an equal number of breaks as we had successful bends. The bend radius is WAY too tight for #5 bar on this unit. We will be renting an electric bender with several changeable die sizes to finish the foundation work. Also, we could not have done anything with #5 bar without my 360 lb. son. You need to be a gorilla to use this unit for #5. My 200 lb. husband hung off the handle like a monkey . That would have been very useful info to have BEFORE purchasing. Fine for #4 bar.

Some effort to cut thru #4 rebar, had to put entire weight on bar, 200# plus, sometimes had to bounce couple times, other times cut thru easily? Positioning rebar must be a key.

Am doing a large scale deck project with many footings. This tool will be an asset for the rebar shaping in every one of them.

This is a beast. It cuts through rebar with ease.
