This came in a box that is all in German, and has a solid build to it that is consistent with what I would expect out of a German-made item. It is good-sized and does everything as listed and shown in the listing photos. There weren't any directions in the box, but if you are a DIY kind of person, it shouldn't be hard for you to figure it out. I would grade it a medium level bench vice, definitely WAY above those 'toy' vices made in China that are small as the palm of your hand and pretty flimsy. For most 'not-large or really heavy' DIY projects, I think it would be fine, and for the price you can't beat it. It's a Prime item and mine came overnight, with a $25 total purchase.
Update: I have used the vice several times now. I saw some of the recent critical reviews over the last 6 months about falling apart, poor craftmanship, junk, made in China etc. I just don't see it. This is a great product and everything about it is strong and firm and easily manipulates to any sort of tile or position you want and tightens down with no issues. And no way is this made in China. I think maybe some people just want to say bad things because they can or they have other motivations. This is supported by the fact of the majority of the reviews being stellar. I would ignore the odd pennies. BTW, if it arrives looking like they sent you a used or returned one, don't whine about it, send it back for a free replacement, it's a Prime item!
