These are generally well made and having a set of three rather than two makes things seem a little more safe. I abused my set quite a bit by using them to help press in bushings as well as their intended purpose and they took it no issues. My only complaint is that they have standard threads, it would be nice to have an acme thread.

after using the traditional two piece design and having one of the clamps slipping off on a renault clio mk2 spring when it was almost under full compression. i was a little hesitant buying these and was going to buy a hydraulic floor mounted one which really makes no sense when i only change springs on family cars and not for a living. anyway bought this tool from sealey as opposed to the clarke one glad i did, this one is actually rated to 1650kg where as clarke is 1500kg. this sealey compressor made easy work changing the other spring on my clio. no having to go to garage and and pay a tenner or so like last time due to using the dodgy 2 peice design. i can honestly say these locking collars and the fact they are three peice makes the job so much less dangerous. not as quick as a floor mounted professional compressor, but these do the job with no fear factor. locking collars make all the difference :) defo a good buy for home mechanics.Read full review

A quality item that comes from a reputable company. Easy to use and adds that extra confidence having three spring compressors with safety catches.

The spring compressors were easy to use, especially when used similar years ago as safety is paramount, but these were far more effective with a long compression length. Three Tools safer than using just two, and the safety clip gave me more confidence

I'm still alive after using on a Subaru impreza front spring . Not sure how the safety hooks make them any safer but they appear to be of good quality
