Review on 🔧 Enhanced Mechanics Socket Set by Amazon Basics, 145-Piece by Satish Tegan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Levers are the highlight of the show. Very strong and durable.

I bought this in October 2018. It is now June 2022. The two ratchets are fantastic. I've regularly applied MUCH more torque to these ASSISTANT removable fasteners while working on my three cars and two dirt bikes than I ever expected from a hand tool. These are my everyday ubiquitous tools. Very impressive. My other comments relate to the case. It's decent. I have about half a dozen rosettes that don't hold tight enough to fall out. Most of them are on the bottom, so to solve the problem I drew "TOP" on the top. Otherwise the sockets are everywhere if I open them upside down. However, I accidentally crushed one of its corners with my car while pulling into the garage. It has obvious damage but there was no loss of functionality. So I value this case in that regard. Most things in the kit are pretty standard with no moving parts so they work as expected every time. No complaints about a stone being a stone, as well as no complaints about Allen and Allen keys. The handle attachment is comfortable and sufficiently shaped to have a good grip. And the ability to put a 1/4" handle drive is great. All in all, this is a very well made set. In 2018 I paid less than the current price but at today's price if I lost this set I would still buy a new one if it was from the same manufacturer and material.

Pros
  • 145pc socket set
Cons
  • Some faults
