Hi Art.
I have a cheapy IR (I think it's model 223) that I bought from Tool Crib
of the North for about $80. I've had it about two years, and it has
worked for everything that I've tried. I use it about once a month,
so I couldn't tell you about the ability to withstand wear and tear,
but it sure does twist off the bolts!
