Kadee HOn3 713 Rust Couplers with Draft Gear Boxes

Amen to what the first review states. The Kadee HOn3 couplers are, in one word, terrible: difficult to asemble, poor in terms of coupling and uncoupling, and not good looking.

These are a bear to assemble, even with an assembly jig. Knuckle (coupler head) breaks off easily. These cannot take aggresive handling & operations. They do NOT look as good or operate as well as the all metal HO couplers. With todays materials, manufacturing machinery & capability, I would like to see one-piece all-metal (with operating knuckle), scale size coupler like in HO (#58?). I have over 600 pairs of Kadees in all scales on my models. I've tried to talk to Sam, but no response.

The recommended couplings for the TT scale. They are a bit large and tricky to assemble, but they work well.
