Great tool works amazing every mechanics dream
5.0 out of 5 stars Actually well worth the cost compared to an old brake fluid bottle
This seems like a waste of money, right? Nope. The magnetic hanger is strong enough to hold a full bottle to a brake rotor or other solid piece of iron, and even hold up to being bumped. The bottle itself is translucent enough to see the fluid level easily. The lid has two connections - one which is open under the lid, and the other which goes below the fluid level - so you can suck fluid out or blow it in, depending on what you're doing. The hanger cord is long enough to be useful without being absurd. The fittings work perfectly with other Phoenix stuff. It's just overall really well made, and a solid bargain for the price. I wish I had bought it to begin with; it makes everything involved in this just slightly more convenient. :)
4.0 out of 5 stars Will bleed brakes with or without Phoenix Systems and only one man... or woman
Slightly different from what is pictured. The one I received has a one way valve in the tubing. Fluid flows through the white side and not back through the black by the way.But it does not need that valve to be used as a one-man bleeder. The cap has a hose on it that goes inside the bottle.Pour a few ounces of fluid into the bottle. The hose inside the cap needs to be inside the fluid when on.Connect the bleeder hose to the fitting on the cap that has the hose attached to it.Connect the other end to the bleeder and use the magnet to hang the bottle to a rotor, shock, metal.Open the bleederSlowly depress the brake pedal then slowly release. Fluid will flow out into the bottle and as you release, the fluid you put into the bottle will be drawn up into the hose with no air.The same can be done with a soda bottle but I have spilled those a lot. I have a Phoenix Systems bleeder and this is going to be a more convenient fluid source than the tapered one size fits all cap that goes into a brake fluid bottle.... That I also spill a lot.I did deduct one star though because I think it is a bit costly for what you get. A fancy soda bottle with no soda.

3.0 out of 5 stars Way more complex than needed
Maybe my fault for not understanding what I was buying, but this thing is too complicated. All I really wanted was a bottle with a tube that fits my bleeder screw and a magnet to hang it near the brake. This thing has check valves, unique connectors, diodes, a manometer, a bottle opener, and complex instructions on the side that will wash off with brake fluid. I know it's a self-bleed gizmo, but can't it just be manual, too? Oh, the tubes do not fit a bleeder screw. I found an old piece of clear tubing in my tool box, jammed it on one of bottle's ports (not the flux capacitor side) and bled away with my friend at the brake pedal. I wish the magnets stuck to my car better.
5.0 out of 5 stars EASY
I've done my own and friends brakes for years. This is a great and simple tool to have. Connect the hose to the bleeder valve and either hang the bottle with the lanyard or use the magnet to attach to a place out of your way, I use the fender. I did lose the little one way check valve on the bottle so now I just have a little fluid already in the bottle before bleeding.
1.0 out of 5 stars I had high hopes for this tool...
I work on my Jeeps by myself. I am a sucker for quality tools as they save my precious weekend and my blood pressure. I have power bleeder that let me bleed the brake fluid by myself plus you can use OBD tools to initiate ABS pump to push fluid.I tried using this tool and I have to say, this tool was designed with good intentions with incredibly poor execution with poor quality parts.Plastic threaded parts don't seal well and I can tell it won't last long as they feel incredibly flimsy. Also the one way check valve requires so much pressure for air to pass through the bleeding fluid cannot push through it.Maybe I have gotten a bad product but when you buy similar product with higher price tag, you expect more quality and this absolutely failed to deliver for me.I also happened to purchased a cheap bleeder bottle and it just worked. In fact, I finished my brake job with it. Save your money, this does not do anything more than any plastic bottle, plastic hose with rubber ends to fit over the bleed screw.I absolutely do not recommend this product as it did not work for me.
5.0 out of 5 stars High-quality kit
The bleeder bottle and kit worked perfectly for me. It arrived in time for my complete brake job on my bike this afternoon. All of the parts were very secure, and there were no leaks. The rubber fitting snapped securely onto the bleeder, and the one-way check valve functioned as designed. I was able to evacuate all air from the system very quickly, the operation could not have been simpler. Thanks for a quality product.
