The wrenches in this set are very heavy and thick. The 10 inch wrench weighs around 18 oz. They could have been made thinner and lighter, and yet be more than adequate for their purpose. The fit and finish are very good, the chrome plating is better than the current yellowish nickel finishes in vogue. There appears to have been some post plating steps taken to smooth the jaw faces and eliminate forging flash and smear that is commonly found on other adjustable wrenches. The jaws on the set I received were almost perfectly parallel and much appreciated. Adjustable wrenches are basically open end wrenches. Would you tolerate an open end wrench that you couldn't slide off the nut because the jaws were pinched slightly closer together at the mouth than at the throat? Most manufacturers of adjustable wrenches overlook this most fundamental requirement. Milwaukee's use of a finer pitched worm adjuster requires 11 1/3 turns to close the jaws from fully open, compared to around 8 1/2 turns for other wrenches with the same jaw span, but in actual use didn't require any extra effort. In fact, it is easier on the thumb than other wrenches that rely on an overly stiff spring to prevent worm adjuster creepage. One place where improvement could be made is the etched inch scale on the side - on this wrench the smallest divisions are in eighths, whereas everyone else has settled on sixteenths of an inch.Read full review

The screw holds the jaw in place well, that's good! It's the type of steel that you know won't burr with just minimal torque, that's good too! Overall I shouldn't have to buy any adjustable wrenches again in 20 years!

There are times when an adjustable wrench is very useful and these Milwaukee wrenches beat the competition. There is literally no slop in the adjustable jaw so an adjusted size stays put. Great quality and strong wrenches for sure. I also have the Milwaukee 12" adjustable wrench. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of adjustable wrenches that don't slip due to sloppy jaws.

Nice grip, well made tools. The finer jaw adjustment reduces the need to keep adjusting for a tight fit on bolts and nuts.
