I built my own basement, and I needed a rebar bender. When I was shopping around I saw that this one was the same price as most manual benders. I thought there had to be a catch, but I bought it anyways. It arrived very fast and worked great right out of the box. I bent all of my #4 bar like butter with no troubles. It is a very heavy tool though so I just used it on the ground. 10/10 would reccomend.
