This device works so well I wish I would have known it sooner I was using a box cutter, what used to take weeks now takes a few hours, my son wires new homes and had 6 55 gallons full of all kinds wire just about done, fast and easy clean I would all most give them for Christmas gifts! if it wears out I will get one fast.

I tried this many times with different size cables. It seemed to be built pretty well. It didn’t strip the cables very well. It’s definitely not ideal for stripping long cables. I even tried to mount it to my work bench to see if it would make it better. I would not buy this again. I think it’s worth spending more to get a better one.

Was pleasantly surprised how well this works for the low price, stripped about 40 lbs of wire in an hour, only using hand crank mode. I do recommend grinding a flat on the shaft for the crank set screw. Paid for itself in about 10 minutes.

Great little stripper. I have alot of 12 awg wire and it takes care of the insulation no problem. The blade is still holding up sharp as well.

This is a tough review because I have complaints and things I like. Starting with the bad... The setscrew for the hand crank was stripped and the allen wrench won't grab it. Normally, this wouldn't be a problem for me because I would just get another setscrew. The problem is, I put the setscrew in and tightened it with my thumb. It wasn't until it was flush, but not tight, did I noticed the other problem. Now it's in tight enough that I need the wrench to remove it, but not tight enough for the crank to work. For now, the hand crank is useless until I get the setscrew out with an ez-out.Now the good. I purchased this intending to use it with a drill. In this mode, it works great! and I'm very pleased. I"m stripping 12 to 18 gage wire. So far I've done about 25 pounds worth of solid and stranded. I read in some reviews about short, cutter life and that was a pre-purchase concern. I think a short life may be due to an incorrect setting. It's very easy to not pay attention and have the cutter driven into the copper wire. If you're stripping stranded wire and it comes out looking hairy or fuzzy, then you're driving the cutter into the wire and this will probably shorten the life (metal against metal). The difference between cutting the insulation and also cutting the wire is a few thousandths of the inch, so take your time initially. I adjust by slowly increasing the cutting depth, instead of pushing it down and backing it off. Last, it seems to cut better using a medium-slow drill speed. At high speed, it seems to miss spots, possibly because of a slight wire kink. I'm happy with the cutting speed.Last, I used a c-clamp to hold it on my workbench. This is sufficient for small wire. My guess is it would need to be screwed down for larger gage.

Decent for Light Use, But Don’t Expect Heavy-Duty DurabilityThis wire stripping machine is not bad for what it is, especially considering the price. It does the job for casual use, but the materials used to construct it aren’t up to handling heavy-duty work.After running a few hundred feet of wire through it, I encountered an issue: one of the guide wheel set screws loosened, and the threads on the guide wheel stripped. This left me with two options—replace the entire unit or spend a couple of hours disassembling it to drill the shaft and pulley, allowing me to add a locking machine screw. I chose the latter, but it was a frustrating fix.That said, for the price, I didn’t expect top-tier durability. If you’re planning to strip tens of thousands of feet of wire, you’ll probably run into similar issues. However, for my needs, it got the job done and ultimately paid for itself. Just keep in mind it’s a budget tool, so set your expectations accordingly.
