This machine does the job. I gave the ease of use a three star because the blade adjuster for the size of the wire to be stripped is manual. Sometimes I have to feed the wire several times before getting it right. But it’s great considering the price. Just need a little patience. Not sure if there is one out there with an automatic adjuster knob, but that would be perfect! Again, this one does get the job done and I am pleased with it. The picture shows the difference size wires that I have stripped.
