BESSEY KRE3531, 31 In., Parallel Clamp, K Body REVO Series - 1700 lbs Nominal Clamping Force , Spreader, and Woodworking Accessories - Clamps and Tools for Woodworking, Cabinetry, Case Work

Why did you pick this product vs others?:As advertised, best parallel clamp I've used

Have a quite number of these and they have been faithful tools for over a decade. Had to order two more for a longer project and I am very pleased to say that the 'new model' is just as good as the prior models. So often 'new and improved' has been a watch word for a decrease is quality, not this time. The rubberized handles might harden and fade with time (the old ones were solid wood) but for now I can tighten it even more. The little bump protectors are a nice touch as well.

Love these clamps

These clamps, while expensive, are worth it for woodworkers who want a guaranteed square clamping surface. The clamp faces have ZERO deflection and so far, everyone I have purchased have been perfectly aligned.It you are a weekend warrior doing home repair projects, this probably isn't the clamp for you due to the cost, but for serious woodworkers who build furniture, you'll love the quality of these clamps.

The clamps are heavy.. the box was wore. The clamps were loose in the box… parts of the clamps were missing.

This is my first "nice" clamp purchase, and wow -- these are great! I'd had some problems with keeping panels parallel while gluing, and never knew what I was missing until I purchased a couple of these Bessey clamps. I look forward to expanding my collection (when funds become available)!

I just love these clamps. The only thing that could make them better would be a cheaper price. My cabinets just glue up square without any issues.

Ordered 4 only received 3 and all the clamp pads are missing.
