Care to post any thoughts? Was it a good buy? What sort of stuff do you do with it?

I'm reasonably close to their showroom so could pop down and have a look if you think it was a good buy.

It's fantastic, I'd recommend it to anyone, it's as pro as you're ever going to get for the size - I've even used it to turn down 20mm st/st spigots before now.

Which showroom are you thinking of visiting?
