That's completely unfair, as per my earlier post I think it possible the OP used it on the wrong chain. I've had one for many years and fitted hundreds of chains - it works perfectly.
But if you have solid link chain it's the wrong tool. You'll need one of the 'Whale' type tools, which I use where needed.
