It has some questionable reviews. Everything else seem good about the deal.
on a related note.
these work great in a vise to prevent marring surfaceshttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0057PUEZO/?tag=phtwllt-20

@backsplatter I recommend you take a look at this 6" vise in person before ordering. I did a few months back, and was pretty disappointed. As in offset jaws, uneven closing, rough castings. Even though (in theory) it’s free, it would likely be a continual source of frustration.
Btw Sears does sell Yost vises, which are great in comparison. Even though much smaller, you’d likely get more satisfaction from the Yost BV-4 bench vise.
Too bad they just raised the price on that to $60–it was $47 just a few days ago. But if you added another $15.01 or more of tools to your order, you could get that “free” too, lol.
And yes, those Bessey vise jaws are the bomb for clamping soft items or tubes etc!

@ctgolfer Imo a much wiser choice, if you’re doing the SYWR points thing, is buying the Yost 905-AS 5" all-steel vise, currently priced at $84.99 (less than Amazon), applying whatever SYWR points and/or coupons to get it down to just over $75. I’ve got a similar Yost all-steel vise and it’s great.
Hmm, I guess this counts as ad-vise…?

I was looking at this one for a smaller workbench I have.

Stinking points that expire instead of a discount … SYW designed to coerce you into shopping for more crap. I’ll go to Harbor Freight when I actually need something and avoid this nonsense. Isn’t Sears selling the same China stuff now?

@myisland I recommend you go to SD That’s where most of the Sears whiners hang out.

@ukedog You just whined like wiener dog.
