Poor quality
Removing the link was fine, when assembling the link the pliers broke. Little dual function to these pliers so.

A must!
The ideal tool for removing the quick-release clip without damaging it, and reassembling it without a hitch if necessary!

Another great product from BBB
These missinglink pliers do what they are supposed to do, clip and open the missinglink. The pliers feel sturdy and due to the use of rubber grips, sit well in the hand.

Do not close the Quick link
Should be able to both loosen and tighten a quick link, but the pliers don't open far enough to close the (11 speed Shimano chain I bought) quick link....

Chain mounted in a beat
Very easy tool to loosen or tighten missinglink. Does what it is supposed to do.

Am satisfied anyway.
With ordinary pointed pliers, the links keep slipping away. These specialized pliers make attaching or removing a quick link totally effortless.

Not necessarily necessary, but very easy!
Great tool for removing your chain (quick link). In itself not necessary, but once you have it much easier than fiddling with other pliers.

Pros & Cons

Ideal, should have bought earlier
Chain only loosened 1x yet. But like it well. Now I could easily clean the chain and cassette. Because the chain is removed you can clean the rest of the bike nicely. Without smearing everything with oil that often comes off the chain. Chain is also very easy to put back on.
Pros & Cons

Fine trang for a quicklink
Quicklink opening and closing is fine and effortless with these pliers
Pros & Cons

Leave those pliers!
What a travesty: The pliers lie wonderfully in the hand, but what are you going to do with them? At least not close a missinglink, because the tips don't go between them. I filed off one side....
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Easy-to-use, good quality tool

Not strong enough for his task
Bought thinking it would be easy to open the missing link. The missing link was quickly found, just as quickly the tip broke off the pliers.

Does not work on an Ultegra 11 speed chain
Nice pliers, but don't work on an Ultegra 11 speed chain. You can't tighten the quick link with them.

Satisfies well
Convenient to use. Because you don't use these pliers much, the price for them is on the high side.

Great little tool and seems sturdy enough(what can actually break it with normal use).
Quick-link opening is a breeze. Closing takes more force but succeeds.

Pros & Cons

Adequate for work, but troublesome at 11s and 12s.
The tank works very well to remove the missing-link. 'Clicking back' a new missing-link is tricky, though. The jaw just fits between an 11s or 12s link.

Does its job and is especially needed for missing link shimano

Closing missing link does not work.
Bought to seal new KMC e101 EPT chain with missing link link. Unfortunately this does not work for this chain (1-speed). Maybe for other chains it will? Didn't try opening it (yet). So it was of no use to me.

Good for loose bad for tightening.
Replaced a chain with it today. The pliers work super for loosening the quick link. However, it was disappointing when clicking it closed. The pliers do not open far enough for three links. The tips are too thick to fit between them properly when the quick link has not yet clicked through properly.

Not great

Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Perfect
Efficient, easy to use, when I see some of the comments about bending the pliers when tightening or loosening, I'd like to see the state of their transmission...

not recommended...
Opening the quicklink went fine, but clicking it together could not because the pliers do not move far enough with it. So the link can no longer be closed and when trying, the pliers also broke.... Really not recommended...

Good for falsehoods
with only one tool you can manage opening/closing of the false links
