The product and hoses are excellent. It's nice that it's equipped with a viewfinder.
Both the gauges and the manifold are of excellent quality. If it's only going to be used for light duty work, it's a great deal. The case has everything you'll need. If you're a mechanic or a technician, you'll want to go somewhere else, but for the rest of us, it'll do the trick. Aside from the gauges' protective cover, everything is made of metal; there are no breakable plastic knobs.
Buenosimo.
The mangueras on this product broke after only a few uses, indicating that it is of poor quality.
Systems based on 410a I work in IT and have set up quite a few of those mini-computers. The only catch is that they usually have a very proprietary fill connector that you must have to vacuum them out and fill them up, which you can get for a good deal on the internet. The majority of off-the-shelf gauges are only compatible with cars and systems that use r22. I've had to cobble together a few over the years to meet my requirements. Someone has finally created one that isn't a $300+ setup. I'm not an expert in the field of air conditioning, and I mostly work on split systems for friends and clients. I don't require a professional set of gauges; all I require is for them to create a vacuum in the line and then fill it with r410 refrigerant. This system, on the other hand, is extremely well-made and far superior to my hard freight kit or Pepboys gauges. The gauges are well constructed and include adapters for r410, r134, r22, and, I believe, R442. The connections are strong, and I no longer get spray back like I used to with my older sets, which had a plethora of adapters. If you're looking for a low-cost set of gagues that can be used in a variety of situations (cars, homes, and splits), these are the ones to get.
The hoses and gauges come in a blow-molded case that keeps the open ends of the hoses and gauges dust-free. Plastic covers over critical threaded manifold connections helped prevent contamination, which I appreciated. These are mostly brass and have glass sight gauges. They appear to be well made. The instructions are clear and concise. Before attempting any recharging, I would do some research online. Some refrigerants are not widely available, and there are strict restrictions on the unrestricted release of commercial refrigerants, the majority of which must be reclaimed to prevent ozone depletion in the upper atmosphere. br>br>This FAVORCOOL CT- I Recommend 536G 3- Way AC Diagnostic Manifold Gauge Set with Case for Freon Charging, Brass Body, Sight Glass, Fits R410A, R134A, R22 Refrigerants These appear to be an excellent deal. br>br>I hope the information and my review were useful to you.

This set is mostly made of metal and is of good quality. The knobs are made of aluminum, while the manifold and line connectors are made of brass. The hoses are rated at 4000 psi, and dust covers are included on all manifold and coupler connections. The kit's contents are well-organized in the case. I appreciate the inclusion of a well-written and easy-to-understand quick reference guide in the kit.
