Most of our workshop gear is McNaught and seems to last well, given the treatment they get.

don't buy any other brand. You spend more time fixing then greasing and it makes a simple job hard. I had about 3 different brands that sre all shit till I got the mcnaugt. We pump about 1 cartridge a week. Mc been going for about 3 years now and still perfect. It is manual though.

I have a cheap Trax brand one, was given it about 10 years ago, and gets limited use. Still going strong and never had a problem with it. For a home-mechanic they would be fine.

No idea what it is worth and where it fits in the pricing scale, but does the job.

I use a toledo tools one and its been great. McNaught is good but its comparitevly low volume production to the toledo tools grease guns sold globally so the price is higher. Quality wise I cant tell the difference and the toledo has a higher pressure than the kincrome grease gun. I bought some accessories such as a flexible hose and a ninety degree coupler to get at the more difficult zerks on the chassis.
