Aldi have these on offer from Thursday
http://www.aldi.co.uk/uk/html/offers...08-08-15-11-27

I bought a set last time they had them. The waterpump pliers are
excellent, well worth £7:99 on their own. The waste pliers are also
excellent for getting that extra turn on a compression waste. Never
used the stiltsons but they are very solidly made.

Real bargain.

If you are using them occasionally for DIY, then they are fine. A
serious pipe fitter would laugh at them as they would last a month or
so.


Good job I posted to UK DIY and not UK Serious Pipe Fitters then innit?


I've used the pliers almost on a daily basis for 18 months, they show no
signs of wear or damage.


Indeed


Please eff off as you are a total plantpot.

They are far from full pro quality and the price reflects that.


Do you have a set?

Of course not. He never actually has anything he pronounces on. A little
research would prove this.

Of course if you start out thinking something is crap why would you buy it?
Rather too subtle for our dribble.

months.

I looked at them today. Total trash. The pliers would not last 6 months.
DIY three times a year use is their only function.

Thanks for confirming you hadn't seen them before - and that you haven't
used them.

Perhaps you could explain why I've used mine on a regular professional basis
for 18 months without any problems?

No? Of course you can't, being a total ****.

Well it is a bit unfair to take the **** out of Dribble, because all it
