I tried those speed bleeders on a couple of vehicles and hated them. I ended up putting the regular bleeders back on and buying a motive bleeder.
The motive is the best under car service tool I have ever bought. Never looked back from that point.

I buy these on sale for $1.99...

Most European cars have the same size reservoir cap, so that it is easy to put Motive cap on. Most late model American cars and some Asian cars have different reservoir cap sizes, install Motive cap on takes time to make it fits without air leak. After install Motive cap on correctly, it's a cake to do the flush.

well I tried them on the 3 Ford F-series trucks I have.
granted the one was a basket case with its braking system but the others were fairly new.
The basket case and my 00 F-350 they wouldn't seal properly after I was done bleeding.

I use the Motive bleeder and like it a lot for routine flushes. I have had a few vehicles where I had trouble getting all of the air out of the lines with it after changing out multiple components, including the master cylinder. In some cases, I've had to resort to the old two man pump and hold method to get every last bit of air out of the system.
But, for routine flushing of a system which hasn't been cracked open, the Motive system is great; especially if you have a European car with the standardized reservoir cap.
