Looking to buy a basin wrench obviously want a one that's gunna last a lifetime, been looking at Rothenberger Telescopic Spring Loaded Basin Wrench, wondered if it was any good much appreciated No.7.0225
 
Toolstation sell a kit (43610 and its £29.80inc vat)

I bought one and it's ok-ish. It's excellent when it fits the nuts, but it always seems to be just slightly the wrong size. Still, it's worth 30 quid all day long though.
 
I hate those spring loaded tap spanners, get an Armeg Jaw dropper...much better.
