Had one in the shop for a couple of years before I left. Seemed pretty good, same as loads of others out there, just with a different badge on it.

If you are going to go for a torque wrench don't go for a cheap one they can be so inaccurate you may as well use an old tea bag to check if something is tight enough.

If you are budget conscious look at Teng or Silverline I have used a Teng for years with no problems at all. Give thought to size of drive. Whatever drive size you use for accurate results don't use a drive adaptor to make othe drive size sockets fit.

I have one at it works fine. It comes with a calibration certificate and mine is also calibrated yearly.
