Jeff:
No. The one that both Tom and I are complaining about is a device
that looks like a pair of pliers with crooked jaws. I notice that it
is sold by PowerWerx and not West Mountain.
As we've been discussing, the West Mountain PWRcrimp is ok for
anything smaller than No 10, but you might want to practice making a
few throw-away connections before you try doing it for keeps.
If you're trying to crimp number 10 wire, unless you are very
experienced (and lucky) with the PWRcrimp, you need the genuine
Anderson crimper to get number 10 done right.

Steve,
Just curious, are you talking about the PWRcrimp tool?

I've had nothing but great results with it so long as I have always
used the proper die-set for the job at hand.
