One of the best pliers you can get . Saved me so many times .
I recommend at least 10" Knipex "Cobra" or "Alligator" slip joint pliers. As an electrician I personally prefer and use 12" Knipex slip joint pliers. I have a couple of pairs that I use for running conduit.

Much like a BMW will outperform Kia you have to ask yourself do you need the performance and have the budget to pay for it.. I got through 45 years of life without needing Knipex and have done all kinds of work and projects pretty much constantly. If I was a strictly a steamfitter I may have other thoughts.
I will say if you are going to get generics or a lower end name brand do make sure to get the cobra style ones as the design just works so much better than more traditional plier designs. Just that upgrade even if in lower end pliers will have most homeowners or DIYers thrilled with performance. I got a small set of Kobalt very low priced and they work great. I'm very glad the patent is up and we can get the performance of the design in other brands with maybe not the the quality of the steel but still in very acceptable and useful tools that perform much better than traditional plier designs,
Amazon refunded me but I lost a chance to get the item with the sale.
I ended up getting this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CNCL2...asin_
And while I would not go so far as to say they are equal or the same, I would say they allowed me to do the same job and I feel like they are well made and a serious value being you get 5 tools and the tool insert for the same price.
