I recently saw an ad for the Saker grease gun coupler, and it appears to be a less expensive alternative to the LockNLube grease gun coupler. The Saker is $19.99 on Amazon, and the LockNLube is $33.99 on Amazon. To add to the mix, there is another listed on Amazon for $19.98, Lumax LX-1403 Silver Heavy-Duty Quick-Release Grease Coupler. Do you have any real-time experience with these latest offerings? I realize that LockNLube is the "original" but is it the best or are these new comes to the market just as good at a lower price point?

LockNLube is like EA, overbuilt and their customer service is outstanding.

I just went to the LockNLube website and they offer free shipping and the price is better than Amazon. $29.99. I also noticed while on the website that they also have swivels that go on the grease gun fitting end of the hose for electric grease guns. It is reasonably priced at $11.99. A further benefit of buying it directly from the company is that each LockNLube comes with a free repair kit. They ship by USPS and it takes approximately 10 days to arrive, depending on where you live. They even offer a 10% discount if you pick it up at their facility in West Lebanon NH.

My 'amazon' L&L came with a repair kit; I'll admit I bought it on a recommendation, never looked for comparable alternatives. Once you lock it on get pumping' cuz it works great!(y)

I ordered mine from the L&L store on FleaBay and I expect it quite soon as it only has to ship from Carol Stream IL to my residence in Cherry Valley IL, though given how poorly USPS is run that could take 2 weeks. Don't laugh, I've seen it

Love my lock n lube. Doesn't work for everything, but everything it does work on its great. Wouldn't want to be without it. Don't even know where the rebuild kit got off to haven't had a need for it.

There's a couple guys here on OTT that had terrible luck with L&L. Exceptions, not the rule. Point being L&L isn't 100% customer satisfaction.

Mine's been fine, and I don't think I got a repair kit. Used it last night to grease my MMM.

Been long enough, I don't remember where I got it from.
