Review on GEARWRENCH 83119 3Piece Metric Socket by Lory Finley

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Generally Good: Hook

Socket inserts are generally good. Keep in mind that while the picture of the SAE shells is orange, the description says they are black, but I haven't read it. The downsides are that some of the pins don't fit in the sockets. While sockets should be stored upside down (drive/ratchet side up), the 3/8" socket and 1/4" socket should be stored drive side down (1st photo). 2nd picture - drive 1/4, head 9/16 does not even go all the way through the pin no matter which way the head is turned. The third drawing is a metric 3/8 drive and they all fit. It seems the trays are designed to be installed upside down, but some don't fit. I even use socket wrenches. In general I am satisfied, only I wish they were all orange and that the sockets fit all the pins.

Pros
  • Hook
Cons
  • Makes me angry
