I bought this tool because of price. It is priced on the low end of the spectrum and this is a tool that I will not use every day. I have used the tool several times and have found no shortcomings or defects. It works as it is supposed to. I'm happy with what I spent and what I got for the money.

This works very good to remover paint, but there is a very big problem with its design. The needles have a nail head that keeps the needles from falling out of the holder. After 2 to 3 hours all the needles start to fall out, because the heads wear off the needles that hold them into the tool.I ordered 5 extra sets of needles and the same thing happened to all 5 sets. So I had to braze a ball of metal on the heads of all the needles to replace the heads that wore off. Then after 2 to 3 hours the brazed heads wore off also and the needles fell out again. Then the return spring broke. If you don't mind having to braze the heads back onto the needles as they fall out this tool works very good, but I talked to other people that had needle scalers and they all said they never had problems with the needles falling out, only that the needles would wear down after so much time. By grinding the needles to a point, they remove the paint allot faster, but the points wear off after about 30 minutes. I would not recommend this tool. Find one that the needles do not fall out of after 2 or 3 hours.
