Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Gift for husband Bessey KBK2440 cabinet Door Paralell jaw bar clamp kit. Comment: They are very heavy as a set, I managed to wrap them for husband as Christmas gift. When He opened the package he was over joyed with the product Bessey Cabinet Clamps KBK2440. He said, "that this is just what he wanted for his work in the workshop". He would recomend these to other's, "who work in cabinet work or bookcase building as a hobby", he said. Customer Rating: Summary: Bessey 40" K-Body clamps Comment: I am not new to Bessey K-Body clamps. I have over 2 dozens but as the saying goes, "you could never have too many clamps". I love the Bessey K-Body clamps. The 40" clamps I most recently purchased were used for building a table top. I love the even pressure created by these clamps. I do have 1 pair of the other manufactured parallel clamps but I truly enjoy the Bessey parallel clamps. I guess that's why I only have 1 pair. Customer Rating: Summary: DON'T BUY ANYTHING LESS THAN THESE Comment: unless you wish to give the others away and buy these later. nuf said. Customer Rating: Summary: over-hyped, now made of imported material Comment: Success seems to have sunk Bessey's rising star. Their clamps are now made of "imported material" (a creative way of avoiding having to write "Made in China"?) and assembled in the US, but even the most skillful surgeon can't save a man with faulty organs. Case in point--the plastic clamps that keep the sliding head from slipping off the bar are flimsy plastic, and mine already are breaking. Jorgensen, on the other hand, is more intelligently designed, using a cotter pin to hold the plastic stop in place. Jorgensen also has wider and longer clamping surfaces. If you must have designer names, no one will talk you out of buying Bessey. On the other hand, if you want the best product for your dollar, look at Gross Stabil (made in Germany) or Jorgensen (made in the US). Customer Rating: Summary: great, but Cabinetmasters are better, in my opinion Comment: I bought this kit, and a few days later took advantage of a sale at another retailer offering free shipping and reduced prices for the Jorgensen Cabinetmaster line. First, the wimpy plastic piece at the end of the Bessey clamps is easily broken, in fact one arrived broken. Amazon's packing for shipping has definitely gone downhill over the past year or two. To Bessey's credit, I called them and they immediately overnighted four replacement tail pieces so I would have spares, at no charge. They told me at Bessey that they get a lot of calls from people who buy their clamps from Amazon because they aren't packed well, and the tiny plastic clips are frequently broken. Anyway, when I went to glue up two frame and panel doors I had made, I found myself trying the Bessey's first, then trying the Jorgensen's, and ended up using the Jorgensens. They have larger clamping surface in both height and width(in fact they make the Bessey's look small when put side-by-side ), making setup of the door easier, for me at least, and I immediately saw that the serrated edges running the length of the bars of the Bessey's marked up my pre-painted center panels on contact (panels were pre-painted in order to avoid having an exposed panel edge if the panel contracted). On the other hand, the Jorgensen bars are smooth at the edges, and do not mar the surfaces they come in contact with; they did not mark up my panels. Fortunately I was able to sand the marks out and finish the glue-up. The CabinetMasters have a much more substantial removeable tail piece; it actually attaches with a spring pin, and will not come off unless you want it to, and is a completely different design and appears built to last and not break. The CabinetMasters are heavier, but I actually like that, they have a more stable feel during the setup process before tightening everything down. Bottom line, the Bessey's are good clamps, but for value and design I like the CabinetMaster's by Jorgensen. More Reviews
