I'm curious, have you broken those pliers specifically? I've been doing handman-ish repairs for 40 years and have used some of the crappiest tools possible (anyone old enough to remember the $4 40-piece socket set they used to sell at autoparts stores and kmart -- pre harborfreight) and have never broken pliers. Just wondering what you're doing with them. I find cheap pliers can't get enough grip on anything to over-torque them to the point of breaking. They may be terrible and have miss-aligned jaws and grips that tear and so on, but they don't usually break.
Just what I needed so the kids and my wife won't need to borrow my tools.

Another tape measure option, $8 (for Ace Rewards members), Stanley 25 ft Power Lock

Good reviews at Ace, and Wirecutter likes it as a basic home tape measure:

It's buggy and the app is worse.

These tools are decent. Good enough for limited use but not built for consistent use. I am a small-time landlord and have many of these tools in my tool bags. I have broken a few set of pliers but I typically lose them before they fall apart. I love the tool bags but typically use the larger version.

Second that. These sorts of tools are the ones that are perfect to chuck in a bag in the truck of your car for an emergency or under every sink in the house for quick fixes.

Let me guess. Maybe dropped them from 20th floor to ground?

Maybe we have different versions of breaking. I have pliers that are no longer functional because the tips are bent or they are don't open/close very well anymore (misaligned or gunked/rusty). I don't really tolerate poorly preforming tools when they can be replaced for $6.

The wide-mouth tool bag link goes to the wrong item (the plastic compartment item).
