The only problem I had with this is that it's not as user friendly as other TR when adjusting the Torque value.
Take my word for it, don't buy it. I opened the package and the instructions was in ft-lb and N-M, which got me very suspicious considering this is a in-lb wrench. I bought this product after some research and what a horrible product it is. And the first time I tried to used it on my car, I set it at 10 in-lb just to be safe, and the wrench never clicked and I almost stripped the thread. You will regret using it on anything that's important to you. I'm now borrowing a friend's wrench and will never use this anywhere near my car.
After throughly researching various other manufacturers I decided on the Mountain product due to its favorable reviews from Amazon and other sites. Since I usually perform my own auto maintenance I decide that I should just invest in a decent tool. It has a durable plastic case for storage and a paper conversion chart. The letters are small (although it would be hard to make them any larger due to the size of the tool) and may be difficult for some people to read. I needed this wrench to change the timing belt on my car. The tool is well made and has a solid feel. I'm sure that a better product can be purchased but you can expect to spend from $60 to $100 for the same type tool. Every visible part is metal (as opposed to plastic) and the torque graduations are permanently embossed on the tool.
Good tactile feedback at low torque values, which is sometimes where cheaply made wrenches will fail. This is a good value for the occasional user. I can't imagine a better torque wrench for the money.
