Monument vs Hilmor vs Rothenberger

[MorrG]

Sounds like Hilmor is the one. I'll stay away from Rothenberger
What about Bahco? They look the coolest but they're the most expensive.

Benditnow used to make hilmor and they are made in the uk still

Go with Benditnow. They are the really the original real Hilmor and from what I read on this forum, actually cheaper and better than from the now foreign new Hilmor.
Why pay more for something produced in the Far East when you can have the British made product?
I have a couple of the Hilmor frame benders that must be 50 years old and they are still perfect.

I have new hilmor, totally spot on.. about a year old and never creases/ripples the pipe etc..

I upgraded my cheap silverline bender to a nice new hilmor one and it was a good decision. Thanks for your advise, I'm pleased with my purchase.

I've had my hilmor about 11 years. Worn and battered but still does the job. However I have gone through a few runners (if that's what they are called)?
