Which of the below Brake bleeder tools would you go with and why? I'm leaning towards Phoenix Systems.

I have one of these kits. The pump is metal not plastic. And for around the same price it is more versatile.

That one looks like a more expensive version of the vacuum one at harbor freight.

 

It is more expensive because it's not junk from harbor freight. Which is fine for a weekend warrior, but not for a mechanic that uses his tools quite frequently.

 

I have a mtyvac and one that is similar to the motive products "can". I actually found it easier to use the motive products "can" to bleed the rears when I replace the calipers. I could not get all the air out with the mityvac. I just got it so maybe I did not use it quite right...

 

Unfortunately, people erroneously use Harbor Freight as some kind of benchmark for quality and value. I find that those people put price above value, erroneously believing that the money they "save" benefits them in the long run, when in actuality it costs them that initial so-called savings, plus more.

 

I hear ya brotha, and agree 1000 percent.
