"I rarely write reviews, but this version of this product is a big disappointment. The photo shows the current version of this clamp (top) and the previous version of this clamp (bottom). Both have the same Dewalt part number. The positive Amazon reviews for this clamp are for the old version (definitely not the current). The design, quality and functionality of the current clamp has been substantially downgraded compared with the old which I have used for years and liked. Not nearly as robust, and the plastic clamp head falls of constantly. It wasn't broke, so I don't know why Dewalt felt compelled to fix it. Trying cut cost they ruined a good product."

Wow. Good catch, and that's very unfortunate.

Also probably explains why the price is back to $40. They had to change it in order to lower their manufacturing costs

Thing is, reviews dating back several years show the "new" design

Well then forget what I said!

It's weird, and hard to believe that those two "versions" have the same dewalt model #. They are strikingly different

this is not akin to changing the design of the label on batteries or removing the "XR" stamp from certain tools. this is clearly a functional change and should have a unique model #. I'm passing on these simply based on the sketchiness

This happened with Samsung hard drives when Seagate bought their HDD mfg business. They immediately inherited years of reviews for one of the best-reviewed (if not THE best) hard drives on the market. Seagate immediate began shipping out of the their own plant & slapping Samsung stickers on the drives. It's crazy what companies will do to avoid being sued for false advertising, but it's what's crazier is how easy we make it for them to do so.

The change occurred several years ago, retailers are probably still occasionally shipping new-old-stock but DeWalt hasn't made the good version since then. They kept the SKU on purpose, obviously.
