useful tool I’ve not had occasion to use it, but it’s a substantial tool that fits both my gas and my water shut-off valves. I hang it on the door closest to the water shutoff. I tested it’s fit for both and shut off the water to test it. I didn’t test it on the gas valve since that might break the safety that’s built in [don’t ask how I know that]. It made turning off the water very easy and I assume it would be the same for the gas.Heavy enough to do the job, light enough to handle well.
It’s okay, but a good crescent wrench would be better buy It does what it says, but it is not a high quality tool. It is cast from some lightweight metals (probably aluminum), and has a lot of seams/imperfections, some of which could cut into your hands. I took a file to it and cleaned it up, which was easy as the metal is soft. The water shutoff should fit most residential valves, but it will not fit the larger/master city valves. There is not as much torque as on a large water key. And honestly, it would be just as easy to use a large crescent…

Probably fits some places just fine. But after I bought this, it doesn’t work at my house, or any friends or family here in S.F. Bay Area. Not really worth returning a $14 item.SUGGESTION: Give the dimensions of the openings in the descriptions of the products. Then, buyers can go measure whether this is a fit for their valve or…
