A good product, but having its own defects.

I recommend for household and not very intensive professional use. The set will be a good help in the repair of the car and home appliances. I might buy another one for a gift.

In addition to my thoughts, I've included some pictures that depict the highlights of my experience.
﻿

Pros

An extensive set of tools, everything together looks nice, everything is working, good workmanship and metal quality (almost everywhere, see below in the shortcomings), comfortable non-slip handles, all mounting dimensions are the same, the ratchets work (need to lubricate the mechanisms). The tools are tightly held in their places in the case; when carrying, nothing dangles or rattles inside.

Cons

The case is made of thin plastic, rather weak in appearance, the surface looks rough, there are scratches on the case, the case's thin supports bend under its weight, one is already dented. The latches are flimsy, to open you need to slightly bend both at once (not completely, otherwise they will break! ). The ratchet screwdriver is made, it turns out, not from solid chrome vanadium steel, the metal part of the tip is anodized with a thin layer, probably stainless, in contrast to the base metal. But this coating on the screwdriver peeled off over a noticeable area, exposing the base metal under the tatters. Unaesthetic and unpleasant! Further, in the shortest slotted screwdriver, instead of a black magnetic tip, the tip of an ordinary non-magnetic steel tip is simply rather sloppy painted with black paint. Imitation!
