FixNZip® Zipper Repair Kit - Medium - Nickel

Slightly fiddly to get working but once you get the hang of it, it works really well. There's a clear guide in the photos to identify the correct size for your zip which I highly recommend you use as this turned out to be accurate in my case. I didnt try a cheaper version as they all had bad reviews, this one didn't and was the right choice.

It does not work. Tried it on a jacket. It worked for the first few times and then useless. Do not buy. The pull handle partly broke off after a couple of weeks.

Overall, I am pleased with this. The item had no information as to where to get instructions from, so there were just some basic unhelpful pictures on the packaging. A web search or three later (to get one that was easy to follow) was required. Basically, on a trouser zipper, you need to ensure that the zipper has anough teeth connected before you put the pull on. One thing that none of the videos appreciates is that the zip you are mending might be installed into an unforgiving pair of leather motorbike trousers. Nor were there any hints and tips such as, when zipping a zipper together by hand, there is a right and wrong way (the teeth on a zipper join together better when one side is placed over the other - which side your zipper works best with I can't say, but now you know). The metal loop could not be installed to get the zipper going, so this was done with no aid. Once the zipper teeth are back on track, you need to losen the adjuster on the puller in order for it to work smoothly. Then you (with difficulty) thread the cord through and make the plastic puller part. It all sounds very complicated, but it does work - and this was on possibly the most difficult of heavy duty zips. For the money I paid it was worth the hassle.

Good product, repaired the zipper and works great, fully recommend

It did the job, but I am not convinced, I had to take many tries before it worked continuously. It is very much over priced, I have looked into the cost of manufacture, and I think this could be made for less than two pounds GBP. After checking, my local machinist would have done the the work for less. What does stretch mean?

What a great product! After mislaying a zipper for a section of a tent (which would have made the whole tent unusable of not fixed) I came upon this item on Amazon and thought I'd give it a try. To my absolute delight, it worked! After being quoted in excess of £60 to send the tent off to be fixed, I found this a very cheap but more than sufficient solution to the problem. Having now camped in the tent and had no problems with the zip at all, I can honestly say it works! P.S. Love the sticker on the items which offers help if you purchase the wrong size etc. It's small touches like this that sets small businesses apart from their larger counterparts.

I purchased this zip replacement, having slammed the car door on my new coat busting the pull zipper. I could not get the new ones to work. Contacted the seller/maker who sent out more zips and further instructions. Still couldn’t get them to work. It would seem zip size is very critical in every case. I gave up, swallowed the cost and had a new complete sip fitted to the coat. Lesson learned.

I've got a big vinyl duffel bag used for diving and caving gear. Salt water had made the sliders corrode and get stuck. Was sceptical that this replacement would be able to zip the teeth all the way to the start of the zip - but it does and works great. Hardest part was cutting off the old slider. This was a tiny bit fiddly to install - but once on, works perfectly. Saved having to spend the thick end of 100 quid to replace the bag. Only improvements I'd suggest - make a heavy duty version that has a bit more meat where the pull toggle attaches and in doing so supply a stronger split ring. Very pleased.

A pesar de pensar que no funcionaría y a la desesperada la compre . Pues a mi me funciono ( en concreto para una cocina portátil de camping ) . Estoy muy contento porque puedo abrir y cerrar la cocina .

Compré este artículo para reemplazar las cremalleras de un saco de dormir que estaban rotas. Requiere un poco de paciencia, pero es fácil de instalar; problema resuelto. Artículo de buena calidad.

El zipper funciona correctamente, excelente calidad, la descripcion de paquete de 3 es engañosa, no son 3 zippers, el paquete incluye 3 piezas que son, un zipper, una argolla y un cordon para jalar el zipper.

Works very well. But remember that it matters which way it's clamped on relative to the zipper. I.e. there's a right side up and a wrong side up. The handle can be attached on either side, so it works either way just as well. Note that if you put it on an inside-out (flat part outside) zipper, the screwhead goes on the inside, which is weird, but ultimately works much better than having it on wrong. I wish this was cheaper, but they do have a killer niche covered and I've ordered more.
