Features

• 16 Things in 1

  Tiger wrench is a powerful new tool that combines 16 wrenches in one.

• Click On Them

  All you need to do is click on the different sizes to get the tools that you need.

• Rotates and Swivels

  Using a swiveling head and a rotating adjustment you are able to find the size you need quickly no matter the angle. This one unit replaces bulky socket and wrench toolkits.

• Saves Time

  Alleviating any guesswork means that you save time.

• Works With Lots of Bolts

  It will work with square, six-point, 12 point or even damaged bolts.

• Standard or Metric

  One end is standard while the other end is metric. In the middle, you will find the ergonomically friendly handle that you can grip easily.

How It Works

Tiger wrench is a uniquely designed tool which combines 16 different wrenches in one. This makes repairs quick and easy. By clicking on the different sizes you will instantly have whatever tool you need for the job on which you are working both standard and metric. Fast when you need it, always have the right tool. You can click the tiger wrench to a 45° angle in order to reach difficult nuts and bolts. As a thick, heavy duty and professional tool it is able to tackle all of your projects on the job, or in your house.

Pros

• Multiple Uses

  The tiger and just perfect for every angle. Working on a skateboard, bicycle, under the hood of your car, on a tractor tire, under the sink or toilet, even the corners under a table are easy with this tool.

Save Money

If you do not already have a full socket and wrench toolkit, using this one tool save you a great deal of money that would otherwise go into purchasing a large kit.

Save Time

Using this tool will save you time insofar as it alleviates the time you will spend searching for the different wrenches. Also, it alleviates the time you need to try and struggle with a unique angle while working. For people who are doing a lot of jobs at home or at a job site, having only one tool versus 16 different tools save you time. Time that would otherwise be spent searching for the right tool or continually switching tools depending on the job. Transporting a large toolkit is a lot more difficult and time-consuming by comparison.

Critical Advice

Tiger Wrench is not an insulated tool and should not be used around live electric circuits. Always use caution when dealing with electricity.

TigerWrench.com

The Official Sales Marketing page TigerWrench.com was first registered on November 28th, 2016; however, only came online in its current state (As Seen on TV) in late November of 2017.

$5 Off Promo Code

Certain As Seen on TV items feature the option to enter a promo code. This code is not widely known but can be easily obtained by conducting a quick search online. Typically these codes are $5.00 off the entire order. The reason these codes are easily obtainable is because it is a sales gimmick which allows the customer to believe that they are getting a deal and somehow have gotten 'one up' on the seller by finding a promo code. The Tiger Wrench office sales page does not accept promo codes, nor do any exist for this product.
Promo Code: DOESNTEXIST

Special Offers

We bought a Tiger Wrench from the official sales page and after clicking the "Process Order" button, we received six additional special offer requests. Each request appeared one at a time on its own page and we had to accept or refuse each request before eventually getting to the purchase confirmation page.

Here are the six special offers:

#1 - Additional Tiger Wrench Offer
- We were offered to receive a second wrench for only $19.95 with no processing or handling charges. Further, we could select the quantity of how many wrenches we would like to receive at this price. This didn't seem like a good deal, as before pressing process Order, we could have chosen to receive a second wrench for free with only having to pay an additional $9.95.

#2 - 25% Off Offer
- Once we said no to the first offer we were presented with a second offer to receive 25% off of an additional Tiger Wrench plus pay no processing and handling. While this deal was better than the first offer, it was still worse than if we had selected to receive the second wrench on the main page when entering our initial order details. To our surprise, they never again offered to provide an additional wrench by only paying $9.95; so our advice to you is if you wish to receive two wrenches, select it from the beginning before clicking the process order button.

#3 - Deluxe Tiger Wrench
- Next, we were offered to upgrade our tiger wrench to the deluxe version for an additional $10.00 per wrench. The additional features included:

• Professional Grade Material (Corrosion Resistant)
• Rubberized Non-Slip Grip
• Lifetime Warranty

- This offer was a little concerning as it made us think, is the wrench not already made of professional grade material that is corrosion resistant? Should I be worried? Wait, what is Professional Grade Material? It sounds like something that was just made up and could be applied to any material without balances or checks.

#4 - 50% Discounted Deluxe Tiger Wrench
- After declining the upgrade, the next page offered a 50% savings allowing for the upgrade of each wrench at a price of $5.00 per wrench. I feel sorry for the people who upgraded at the full price when all they had to do was click 'no' the first time they were asked.

#5 - Add SpeedOut to Order
- SpeedOut is a drill bit set which allows for the removal of stripped bolts or screws. It is actually quite a useful tool. If this set was offered at a discount we may have considered adding it to our order; however, it was offered for an additional $19.95 with no additional shipping fees. We were able to find SpeedOut available online for less than half of that price with shipping included.

#6 - Expedited Order
- The final offer presented to us was for $6.95 which would expedited the handling process so that rather than it taking 1-2 weeks to be processed at their warehouse, and 3-6 weeks to receive, the order would be placed at the top of their shipping list and would be sent out from the warehouse in 3 to 5 business days. At first glance, the offer sounded good, $6.95 for expedited shipping (at least that's what I thought was being offered, boy was I wrong). There was even a picture with a box on it that said 'Priority'. Any time I've had something sent to be via priority mail its received within 2-3 business days. Lucky I re-read the offer and noticed that all which was being offered was to expedite the handing time, not the shipping time. This meant that the same shipping method would be used and it would still take 3-5 business days (3 to 7 calendar days) to have the order even mailed from the warehouse. There was no change in the shipping method.

Order Confirmation

There have been a number of complaints regarding buyers having not received order confirmation. Once you click past the 6 additional special offers, you will arrive at the final order summary page where there will be a Yes / No radio button which you must click if you want to receive an e-mail confirmation of your order.

Tricky Tricky

If you get partway through your order and decide there is something you would like to change, and you go back to the main page to select to receive a second wrench by only paying the shipping price, you will be completing an entire second order.

On the very first official sales page there is fine print below the order button which says " By clicking Process Order, your credit card will be charged the amount above. Click only once."

Once you click this button, you have submitted your original order and given consent to charge your credit card for that order

Do not go back to the main page to make a correction as you will be placing a whole new second order if you do so.
Wait until you get to the end of your order to make any corrections. (after viewing all the special offers)

The aforementioned is the only aspect of the website we found the average customer may use improperly and end of being charged more than they expect.

Traditionally, As Seen on TV Official Sales Pages are confusing; they aim to trick the buyer into spending more money than they realize by using confusing language and not providing an opportunity to see/confirm the order.

The Tiger Wrench sales page is not confusing at all.

Refunds

The 60-day money back guarantee refund policy does not include any shipping and handling fees, nor the price of return postage. Regardless, unlike other TV products, the shipping fees are more than reasonable (in some cases free); thus making the return policy optimal.

Shipping

TigerWrench.com's shipping policy states that they will ship your order within 60 days from the time it is processed and it will be mailed via Fed-EX Smart Post. This massive timeframe is to account for periods of backorders, increased demand or any other unforeseen problems.

Fake Knockoffs

Counterfeit alternatives to the Tiger Wrench have already begun to surface in China. It is unclear if these items are truly knockoffs or another version legitimately made available to other countries. Below are two photos showing two different tiger wrenches, both of which are different from the wrench advertised on tigerwrench.com

The above wrench has a different handle with an engraved rectangular plate within. It also appears to have a non-confirmed grip (not dog bone). It is possible that these could have been initial designs for the tool.

The above photo shows a much cheaper quality wrench which has no metallic marking on the handle. Further, the handle is a straight rectangle without any gripping contour.

The reason we are hesitant to call these two versions outright knock-off is because knockoffs usually don't have the name of the item on them. Further, these alternative wrenches are being sold in other countries at a rate equivalent of $29.96 - $75 USD plus shipping and without any special offers.

Counterfeit products are usually available at a much lower rate than the original as they do not have to follow the same regulations and are not concerned with protecting their brand name reputation. This typically results in counterfeit items being made of lower quality materials.

Not Original

The idea of a 48-in-1 wrench is not original. A Brand called EZ Tools released their version of this invention over two years ago.

The Specs on the EZ Tool 48-in-1 Wrench are as follows:

• Includes two 48-in-1 socket wrenches
• Eight popular SAE sizes
• Six types of bolts: spline, six point, 12 point, torx, square, and damaged
• Swiveling head
• Attached magnets track the bolt you're working with
• Steel construction
• Comfort rubber grip
• Measures 9-3/4"L x 1-1/4"W x 1-1/4"H

If you are interested in the EZ Tools version, it can be purchased from:
QVC: $29.98 + $5.50 S&H (Price on 18 Dec 2017)
or
Shopify: $33.00 + S&H
(Prices listed above were take n 28 Dec 2017)

Difference between Metric and Standard

" Most countries use the Metric System, which uses the measuring units such as meters and grams and adds prefixes like kilo, milli and centi to count orders of magnitude. In the United States, we use the older Imperial system, where things are measured in feet, inches and pounds. "

6-Point vs. 12-Point Sockets

" Both sizes have their respective benefits, although some who frequently use sockets may swear by one or the other. Generally speaking, a 6-point socket gives the user less room for error. That is to say that due to the restrictive shape of the socket's interior, only the correctly-sized socket will work for a particular bolt. The benefit of this is that the right socket fits snugly onto the bolt. There is no danger of rounding the bolt's head with a socket.

On the other hand, a 12-point socket more closely resembles a circle on the interior, so it is easier to fit a socket onto a bolt. It's not so much that it's easier, it's that there is more wiggle room. A 12-point socket has twice as many interior points on which it can fit around the 6 corners of a bolt head. What this means in a practical sense is it is possible to use a 12-point socket that is not exactly the right size on a bolt. A good example of this is using a 12-point metric socket on a standard bolt for which you do not have the correct fitting. The 12-point socket will give you some leeway and allow you to loosen or tighten the bolt. The disadvantage of this is that there is a danger of rounding the bolt head, something that cannot happen when you use the right 6-point socket. "

Competitors

A lot of companies including Black & Decker, Craftsman and Kobalt have all released their own version of a similar wrench over the past eight years. Yes, that's right, this is not new technology nor is it 100% unique. We've scoured the internet researching the various multi-wrenches and have found one which stands head and shoulders above the rest...

Kobalt Multi-Drive Wrench Model #105129

This wrench is different from the others as aside from replacing the 48 wrench/socket tools, it also has an interchangeable head which allows the unit to be turned into a screwdriver or theoretically any other handheld fastening tool. An added novelty to this wrench is it contains a miniature flashlight which can be easily attached to the largest socket head.

Ratcheting Technology

The main function missing from the Tiger Wrench, and all other alternatives, is the ability to ratchet. Unfortunately, there is no tool anywhere on the market which acts as a 48-in-1 wrench and has ratcheting functionality. There were multi-function ratchets (although rare) that have the ratcheting capability; however, they are only available in either SAE or Metric, but not both. This is a problem as if some equipment is made in the United States and other items are made in China, this means you're likely to need both Metric and Standard ratchets.

Tiger Wrench Review

We've spent countless hours researching both the Tiger Wrench and available alternatives so that you won't have to. (of course feel free to) We've found that the Tiger Wrench isn't the only option out there, nor is it the cheapest, first, or the best. However, it is the wrench that is As Seen on TV, so if you are buying it as a gift you'll be missing the novelty if you buy a different wrench.

If you're buying the multi-wrench for yourself, there are better options such as the Kobalt Multi-Drive for reasons listed above.

Does the Tiger Wrench do as advertised on TV?
Of course, it does or else the company would open themselves up to lawsuits.

Is the online sales page confusing?
No, although they try to offer "not so special" offers throughout the check-out process, if you read before you click, everything is straightforward.

Final Thoughts:
By taking all factors into consideration, be it the price, quality, functionality and what alternatives are available, we've come to the conclusion it is a good buy.

But Wait there's more... We've never seen an As Seen on TV product which was better quality than a trusted brand name alternative. With the Tiger Wrench, you are going to get what you pay for. It is not indestructible; however, it does do as it states. It won't work as smoothly as seen on TV, but it will perform all the cited functions with ease. The decision to buy or not to buy is yours. If you are still not sure whether you should make the purchase or not, perhaps you skimmed this report too quickly; it's in your best interest to consider reading it in full. :o)
