Yost Vises 750-E Multi-Jaw Rotating Vise System | 2 in 1 Multipurpose Bench and Pipe Vise | Secure Grip with Swivel Base | Made with a Combination of Ductile Iron & Hardened Steel | Medium, Blue

Fantastic Vice, perfect size for hobbists workbench. Plenty big not to break, still very versatile, and at an affordable price. I previously had purchased a Wilton economy series for a similar price but it was much smaller to the point i never even mounted it. I am extremely happy i went with this vice instead.

We needed a vise for the garage, and after reading 100s of reviews, we settled on the Yost Vises 750-E Multi-Jaw Rotating Vise System. Let me tell you, this thing is a beast! I mean, it's made of 60,000 PSI ductile iron, so it's tougher than my neighbor's overcooked steak. The 5" jaw width and 3" throat depth make it feel like the Hulk of vises – it can handle anything you throw at it, from delicate jewelry work to "accidentally" dropping your brother-in-law's DIY project. And the best part? The head rotates a full 360 degrees so that you can spin your work around like a DJ at a wedding. It's so versatile that it might even help improve my husband's golf swing. Overall, this vise is the real deal – sturdy, reliable, and ready to tackle any job. Just don't let it get a big head from all the attention.

Excellent price for a quality vise. Endures lots of wear and tear. Still going. Easy to mount. Good size for mechanics

Edit 3/8/2018: I spoke with Yost customer service about the base swivel. Pat was cordial, helpful, and after filling out an e-mailed warranty form, they did not hesitate to send a new base. It arrived and I installed it today. The new locking plate in this base works beautifully—no racking of the bolts and the swivel action is smooth and easy. I changed this review from 4 to 5 stars acknowledging both the great vise and excellent customer service. Original review: I unknowingly suffered with a small, cheap vise for many years. I didn’t know how great it is to have a larger, multi-function vise like this Yost. This thing is really stout, and except for the swivel base, functions smoothly and seems well made. The swivel base however is terrible. The design should be ok, but the casting for the locking disc is horrible; the recesses for the bolts are too big, causing the bolts to rack and bind as the base rotates. Since I won’t use this feature day-to-day, I’ll live with it and enjoy the parts of the vise that I will use. Still highly recommended.

This is a great bench vice for the money! It's a $99 vice made in China, so some manufacturing flaws are to be expected, but it is FAR superior to similar priced junk at Home Depot and Harbor Freight. I really wanted to buy an American-made vice, but they are all overkill for my needs and cost much more money. I would rate this a light-to-medium duty vice, perfect for the weekend warrior and DIY hobbyist. As I mentioned above, it has some manufacturing flaws that I think you have to expect at this price point -- the paint is not completely uniform, the anvil has a few bumps on it (it is not machined flat), and they skimped on the finishing after the casting process as the edges are rough. So why anyone would rate a $99 vice with 5 stars is beyond me as the manufacturing leaves some room for improvement. BUT...operationally this thing works great. The swivel mechanism is decent (WAY better than others I tried at this price point), the jaws operate smoothly and close square, and the rotation mechanism operates smoothly as well. And the combination of the rotation and swiveling jaws make for a very handy setup. Now that I've used a vice that rotates, I can't imaging having a "regular" vice again. One last comment - this vice is tall. The top sits about 9" off my bench. So if you're short like me, just understand that the working height will be around 9" higher than your workbench. Since my bench is low, that wasn't an issue. But if your bench is taller, that could be.

Everything as advertised , very good quality at a great price … it’s exactly what I needed !

I purchase this vise for motorcycle based projects in my garage, so it will not necessarily be used for heavy duty projects. I really like the flexibility of this platform, and the 360° rotation will be extremely useful for my application. Can't speak on heavy duty usage, but I would recommend this price for similar applications. I believe that the value you get for the money being put out is very fair.

Box came with big holes in it, but the vise seem good and solid haven't had time to use it yet

The vice is great. I have used it a few times now and am very happy with the gripping strength and the sturdiness of the construction of it. I put it on my workbench and like that it swivels. It makes working on projects considerably more versatile. Very happy and would recommend this vice at the price point.

MUCHO USO Y TODO OK

Muy buena calidad

The best vice I have ever owned and probably the last I will need. Very well built. At this price point, compared to CT and other brands it's a good buy. You will appreciate the shaft rotation feature, it's worth the $30.00 dollar price difference from the model below.

The only thing I'd say to improve, is the packaging, as it came in a torn box all taped up. It's a very heavy box and I ended up scratching myself. Otherwise, the product works fantastically.
