Great product and great customer service!! Bought this initially has a hail Mary to attempt to fix the zipper on a wallet that was very sentimental to my daughter. I followed the video instructions that are on their website, and was able to fix the zipper! I was the hero for a day. I also used it to fix the zipper on a sweatshirt that the zipper track would not stay together. Read more

The most common theme and expert here is to keep your broken zipper around--be buried with it, if possible! Well, I didn't do that. All metal. No weak snapping together. Decent quality--not great. Zipper-slides, fitted on newer items these days, simply disentegrate. It seems that they are painted ceramic--not metal. So, the industry is problematic, in the first place. (This reminds me of a cheap chain-link remover for bicycle tires. The body of it actually was ceramic--not painted silver!) I man handled the stop and the first teeth to ptove perpendicular to each other. After much frustration, I got it on. (It's very easy to install it upside-down!, or on the wrong side!) I also attempted with another slide--seemingly, that slide appeared to have a better fit. It would not slide at all: That's puzzling. It does zip up and down nominally, currently. The seasons for it are over here--so, I'll have to see next fall and if it"s reasonably workable. Read more

Amazing kit. Amazing quality. Amazing customer support. (Went the extra mile to answer my questions) This kit is easy to use, easy to understand instructions, many options (sizes and so) and quality is top level). Would have given 10 stars if I could. Read more

This kit enabled me to salvage an expensive fleece and a puffy vest, both with broken zipper pulls. The directions recommended pulling or prying off the top zipper guards, which I couldn’t manage to do with pliers, so I just made a little snip between the top teeth with my scissors and then sewed them shut when I was done. There are a limited number of zipper pulls in the kit, so I had to use a black one rather than silver on my fleece, but it was much cheaper than replacement cost or the $45 I was quoted by a seamstress to replace the entire zipper.

This was not as easy to install as the video shows, but with a little bit of Determination, I was able to get the replacement zipper installed, and the new stop at the top of the teeth pressed into place. It was a great replacement and it works like a champ. The secret, of course, is making sure you’re using the right zipper head, but this kit comes with a variety for you to use. For us, it was a goodbye and worked as advertised. Read more

The product works and with just a little thought and effort you can repair most zippers. The issue for me is they provide 11 slides of various sizes but only 4 bottom stops. Slides and bottom stop as well as top stops should match, otherwise you can only repair a maximum of 4 zippers. Read more
