      I haven't tried the Klein but I have the Greenlee that looks just like it and it sucks. I have several of the Ridgid cutters and they all work great with the correct wheel and even the basic wheel will work fine it just doesn't hold up to time.

      If I recall correctly, that greenlee one is a piece of crap. I was on a job where we had 100 plus guys running pipe and we were required to use emt pipe cutters. The company bought a bunch of them and by the end all we used were the Klein ones and everything else hit the dumpster.

      I have cutters that look just like those but are a different brand, same for the deburring tool.
