I have the slip joint Sunex.. still haven't used em, but I like the versatility of the slip joint and the pipe grip in the head..

I have the HF ones (I think they black grip and are NOT were branded Pittsburgh). They work fine after a shot of Fluid Film.

Never had a reason for something like those. Not sure they were around when I was wrenching. Just used an L bent piece of metal. Course most times when dealing with hoses they got replaced anyhoo.

I have the HF set. No complaints, other than I keep forgetting I have them!

That is good to hear I just purchased a set of the HF hose pliers tonight.
