Often, yes...

Not know to be accurate and /or not know to be accurate for long and / or not known to be consistent.

To each his own,, do what works for you, your budget and your goals.

I am sure everyone has access to the required testing equipment. That being said why not spend a few more dollars and purchase a tool from a reputable manufacturer.

true... if your buying tools at the Horror Freight level, no matter the brand or discount supplier you buy from, a $20 tq wrench is going to be a like quality / comparable manufacture
 
For the occasional use, most HF are good and guaranteed for life but I would not torque my bike with one...
 
Only really needed it for the oil plug, checked home depot and they were $80. Amazon has Tekkon but I've never heard of them before, plus the need to have it right then and there.
