Review on TEKTON 87-Piece 1/2 Inch Drive 6-Point Impact Socket Set (5/16-1-1/4 in, 8-32 mm) - SID92407: The Ultimate Socket Set for Powerful Impact Applications by Sean Burnett

Missing sizes in cheaper kits are annoying. My last impact set, a signature set from the Midwest "Northern" chain, didn't have an 18mm head, which is fine if you never need to remove blades from a John Deere lawn tractor or do anything on the bottom end. modern Ford product. With this set there will be no problems. There's an old saying in Tennessee—Texas has it, I'm sure Tennessee has it—it goes, "Miss the size, shame on it; skip the size twice, too bad. You will not miss any more sizes. I only got them recently so haven't had a chance to smash them all but they seem decent to me. They're heavy and relatively thick-walled, as you'd expect from sockets, and the size of each is engraved in easy-to-read ink on one side and embossed on the other where it never wears out. The blown body feels solid and feels like it should offer reasonable durability for portable use. Unfortunately it's also very heavy when filled with sockets, although I don't know what I was expecting as it's a very large set. If you've ever opened one of those inflated suitcases upside down and had everything the bottom part should be, then this one is prone to the same thing. Take a marker and write this page at the top/bottom of the appropriate page. If I were to shop again I would want the exact same set except it is split into two drawers for ease of management. (Metric and standard would be a logical split, but I think a deep vs. shallow split + accessories might be even better.) I'm just a home gamer, working with cars, small engines, and other gear for myself and close friends/family . I'm not in the professional use category, but Tekton's lifetime warranty and easy replacement process inspire confidence. (Of course, if you're making a living, I'm sure the Snap-on truck offers the "I'm 30 minutes away, I'll be there in 10 minutes" guarantee service and other perks I can hardly understand -Pro.) I'll update when I have important insights.
