### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Solid, sturdy and functional.
  

*by J***L on Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2022*

Bought for projects needing wide jaws and is particularly useful. Its heaviness makes it a little difficult to adjust but works well.

    Why did I wait?
  

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2012*

For the last seven years, I've been using the small Jorgensen F-clamps that I bought when I really started getting into woodworking. And those clamps worked, generally. They were certainly less expensive, which mattered a lot at the time. I finally broke down and bought 4 of these Bessey F-clamps. I own a bunch of Bessey Revo Parallel clamps, so I was already familiar with Bessey's quality. Here are the features I love about these F-clamps, and the reasons I think they are worth the thirty bucks each I paid for them:1) Perfect for caul clamping- when gluing up a table-top (or any flat surface with multiple pieces of wood), I generally need to use cauls to make sure the boards are and stay flat. These do that beautifully. Their deep reach means I'm not doing gymnastics trying to get the clamps positioned properly.2) "Quick release"- there's no lever to depress in order to slide the clamp open or closed. You just apply a little bit of angular pressure and you're good to go. This means I can apply a clamp one-handed, which is really nice when I'm trying to hold things in place with my other hand.3) Solid and heavy- my smaller F-clamps bow and can't really apply that much pressure. These things are beasts. They are rock solid. The downside is they are  definitely heavy, which can make them a little unwieldy. But I'll take heavy and sturdy over light and flimsy any day.These clamps are perfect for holding things down to a bench top or using them as cauls. The'd also be great for bent lamination glue-ups. I don't think I'd choose to use them for edge grain glue-ups, though I guess you could in a pinch. Solid, sturdy, easy to use. My new go-to clamps.

    As powerful as a vise
  

*by F***K on Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2017*

I'm ordering a second pair of these babies, as I am about to do a challenging table-top glue-up. My first two have served me well for a few years, and all the good reviews are true! Powerful, heavy, reliable - all there when you need it. Why buy a wimpy clamp that works for some of your needs? Buy one that will do anything you ask it to do!Apart from its immense clamping potential, what I really like is the "reach" of the jaws. Just try to find some decent clamps with a 5 1/2" reach - the best I could find were some wooden ones. As others have pointed out, these clamps are great for immobilizing something to your workbench or torsion box table. With their great reach I intend to use them with cauls to force the boards even with each other during my table top glue up. (p.s. the best way to store these, I found, was to hang them in one of the metal hangers that Rocker and Woodcraft sell. They work well for bar clamps too)
