For house wiring where the conductors are heavy gauge, and insulators quite brittle, probably quite OK.
But that model stripper would be hard on smaller, multistrand conductors.
In our workshop we use Duratool 608-369C-F which has jaws with various gauges that cut the insulator and slide it off without stressing the conductor. Good for finer work.
