ForwardGeneral Purpose Bench Vise 4 Inch Ductile Iron Home Vice with Swivel Base and Anvil, 4" Jaw Width, 3" Max Opening

Good quality. Seems pretty robust, like it will last. Jaws open and close smoothly and evenly. Base rotates 120 degrees. Even comes with 5/16" mounting bolts, washers and nuts for installation. 5" is big enough for my needs in my garage shop.Recently installed so I haven't used it much, but it certainly seems capable and robust enough for my needs. Great deal so price was right. Good value, I believe.

Great value.

Was heavy duty but did not have a pipe vise insert otherwise nice for the price

The media could not be loaded.  Very happy with finish on this vise until I went to clamp down on an item on right side of jaw. When loosening the jaws they stick then suddenly snap open. Only happened on the right side. See video.Amazon exchanged the vise and I changed my rating to a 5. Replacement vise works flawlessly. Really like the “U” shaped casting over the screw as this seems to make the vise more solid, and less lateral movement. Plus it keeps the screw threads clean. This feature is not found in the cheaper vises.I looked at many vises and for the money, you can’t go wrong.

Solid vice for smaller jobs, hobbies, homeowner DIY, etc. The main thing I look for in a vice is that it has no "slop" when opening/closing the vice jaws. If I start turning the handle in either direction, I expect instant movement of the jaws. This vice passes that test. Very nice vice for the price.

Easy to install. Did not see any rough threads that others have mentioned. I did apply some white grease on threads and guide rods before first use. Works smoothly, good third hand in the wood shop.

The media could not be loaded.  I bought this. This wasn't sent to me for free like all the other reviews. The vise came packaged very well! Has a nice beefy lead screw and the powdercoat was in fantastic shape. Very nice serrated jaws and they line up great when closed. This is low profile and sleek looking vise that really doesn't give up much depth from top of jaw to base of the opening. The 6 inch width is great for shop use. Not much of a anvil on the back but I don't pound on my bench vises anyway. Seems to be a overall great bench vise for home or small shop use. Has a hell of a rated clamping pressure due to the big lead screw and the Ductile Iron composition. I'm happy with it.

I considered buying a larger vice, but decided that this one would serve my purposes. There are several things I like about it: (1) it has a decent sized anvil, (2) easy installation, (3) the base has two locking arms so it does not swivel unless I release both, (4) it doesn't wobble, (5) quality appears to be decent, and (6) the opening is fairly large for a 4" basic bench vise. The instructions are pretty basic, but it does tell you what size bolts to buy. I chose to install with lock nuts as I don't anticipate needing to remove the vice from my work bench. For the price and size this is a very good buy.Update: This vice has worked well for me so far, but rust spots have started to appear on the anvil and other non painted surfaces. I have downrated this to three stars as a result.
