The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The CRAFTSMAN CMMT98339 is priced at $28.99 and holds a 4.6-star rating from 896 reviews, a strong showing backed by one of the more recognizable brand names in this category.
It has a rubber handle, a grip material not seen on any other plier in this list. The listing shows an item weight of 0.01 ounces, which, as with the Lisle 38700, appears to be a data entry artifact rather than an accurate figure.
With 100 units bought in the past month, it's selling at the same pace as the Lang 3495 and Lisle 38700, another sign of steady demand.

Performance notes
The rubber handle sets it apart from the plastic, foam, and alloy steel handles used elsewhere in this category; the listed 0.01-ounce weight is not usable for comparison and looks like a data entry issue.
