    I've been thinking of getting one as well. But my standard fitting and needle fitting have kept truck along. Would be convenient to not have to hold it on there.

    I have one and have used it several times with pretty good success.

    It really shines when the zerk is wide open and easy to get to. It is kind of bulky and hard to get into tight places.

    Overall, I am glad I got it and would buy it again if I had to replace it.

    Agreed with the above. It you can hit the fitting straight-on they work great. If you have to access at an angle the length of the coupler makes that very difficult and you will still make a mess with the grease and maybe not get it in the fitting. I received one as a gift last year and it works very well where it fits.

    I have one I use on my excavator and dozer. It works great, eventually it gets worn out a bit then you put a simple rebuild kit (one supplied) and it works great again. Sure there's a few places it doesn't fit but I have a regular gun for that. When you go through a tube and a half every time you grease it really helps. So does my Milwaukee m18 grease gun!:beer:
