This is the first snap tool that I have seen that is a 2 in 1. If you have tight canvas, older snaps, etc. this tool will make the job of "snappin up" much easier. I have arthritic hands and lack the strength to pull canvas tight and push the snap on. With this tool I can painlessly and quickly accomplish the task. Be sure you use a small amount of something like zipper lube or Vaseline inside each female side of the snap to make it even easier.
I had an older style of the tool with only the long end and a wood handle. It worked but not as well as this one. The large soft handle and dual snappers are a definte bonus. I'm glad I made the upgrade.

not completely satisfied with product, be careful when using to unsnap you can actually pull snap off canvas if not used right

Sure makes it easy to fasten the snaps on the tonneau cover on the pick-up. No more busted finger nails especially in cooler temps. Saves time too. Sure do wish I had found this tool years ago. It is well worth the price.
