A solid addition to my shop...
The media could not be loaded. What it's not:If you need to cut heavy steel, you might be disappointed here, that is, I'm cutting 16 gauge sheet steel easily, or, 'reliably' might be a better word. I've not attempted to find it's absolute thickness-cutting limits, but 16 ga. is a pretty standard thickness and somewhere quite near its limits.-Not for dependable straight cuts. If you need perfectly straight cuts, as a rule, this might be a disappointment. You CAN get them done, but it requires some layout and focus on your part.IT DOES: Cut curves and miscellaneous shapes quite well. I've been doing leaves and flowers, bells and such a lot lately and I find this shear to be just the thing. I can say that I love it as an addition to my metal and smithing shop.The video shows it's facility in use and my concept for installation, which allows for optimal flexibility in my shop.

It will, in fact, shear 16ga steel. It was not easy but it did cut and end result was acceptable.
This thing will save my hands from endless wear and joint problems now that I can just shear thin metal with a ratcheting action instead of scissor style metal shears.Harbor Freight type quality: it works and it's cheap.

Jams half the time and sheet metal gets stuck in there . You waste hours trying to get it out

Works great
This shear works pretty well. It does cut 16 gauge sheet steel. Very clean cuts with little distortion. Thin material cuts easily, while 16 gauge requires some effort and won't allow tight curves. Seems well built and is a good value for the price. A lot better and faster than snips.

Will only cut thin, soft aluminum
The tool I received would only cut aluminum flashing or thinner. (I could use scissors for this). It would not cut .028" steel without forcing the metal into the dies. There was no way to adjust the die clearance which "might" have helped. The serrations on the drive wheel were very shallow so did not want to grip and pull metal into die. I see there are other brands that have an adjustment for die clearance.Tool was very nicely made. Too bad it didn't work. I will return.
