RIDGID57003 EZ Change Plumbing Wrench Faucet Installation and Removal Tool

A lifesaver. I needed to replace a leaking 23+ year old bathroom faucet and could not get the tab nuts to turn so I could remove the old fixture. As is always the case with plumbing, they were in a very tight spot and there was no way to get a good enough grip on them despite any number of McGyver-style attempts with a variety of tools. With their usual amazing logistics Amazon delivered this within a few hours and it made short work of the tab nuts using only one hand; as a bonus, it made reconnecting the compression fittings even easier. Like most things, it's all about having the right tool and for replacing faucets, this is the one. It is rugged, has a ton of functionality, is easy to grip, and is just right for working in tight spaces.

I've never enjoyed the experience of replacing my kitchen faucet, given how crowded it can be under there (with a deep bowl sink on one side, a garbage disposal unit, etc.). If any of the connections are screwed on too tightly, it can be a nightmare loosening them and removing the old faucet.This wrench made it simple to quickly remove the old faucet and replace it with the new.The truly wonderful thing about the wrench is how it is open on one side, allowing you to fit it around a water supply line, and then have leverage to loosen or tighten a nut. One end of the wrench also has grooves on it that will fit around plastic screw-on fasteners. In my case, I had a plastic fastener that was locked in place after years of use, which I could not seem to reach by hand or with pliers. This wrench is long enough that it allowed me to comfortably reach the fastener and remove it in seconds.The construction of the wrench is also very good, and I expect it to last essentially for a lifetime. The outer shell is a very thick, rigid plastic, while the removable attachments are thick metal.If you want a sturdy, multi-purpose tool that makes under-the-sink work much easier, then this wrench is for you.

Works great. I had a cheaper version that was flimsy and didn’t work. This one is solidly built, heavy plastic and easily handled the job I needed it for. 100% recommended

The wrench sizes are correct but the tool itself is kind of bulky for something you use up under and behind the sink. It worked, but it was awkward trying to line it up with limited space and visibility. Quality construction, though.

Helps alot with fauset and supply line removal and install.

Very useful for apartment maintenance, changing sinks made easy

It may be right for some but to me it was too big and clunky for my tight under counter jobs. Well made Just not for me

Not cheap but well made and if you have ever spent an hour skinning your knuckles and bending yourself into a pretzel trying to work in an impossible space with tools that slip on purpose than this is worth it's weight in gold. Fixed my problem as it had never been fixed before and in record time.
