Review on 🧲 Magnetic Socket Holder, 1/2-inch Drive, Metric, Green, Holds 19 Sockets - Olsa Tools: Professional Quality Tools Organizer by Eric Teshome

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great socket stands with some big indentations especially 1/2 inch

I bought these to replace my Hansen plastic cups. These holders are really good quality and are perfect for master heads and sockets too. They don't fit blue dot sockets and some others. I really wish they made them a little less wide, the 3/8" compartment is 3.5" wide and the 1/4" compartment is 3" wide. So if you're using a US General 30" trolley, you can only fit 3/8" kits, 1/4" kits, and 1 of the 1/2" kits, which is my biggest complaint, that the 1/2" kit will only hold depths or shallows, while the 3/8" kits and 1/8" will hold in both deep and shallow water. 1/2" holders start at 10mm and go to the first drop and then back to 27mm instead of being 10mm to 20mm deep and shallow. This is a big mistake in my book as I use all 1/2" over 20mm and can just keep them separate forcing you to buy 2 sets for 1/2", one for flat, one for deep metric and so in total you need 4 of these, good luck installing the in your cart. This product had a chance to be a WINNER and they seem like they will last forever but because they messed up 1/2 inch I removed the stars. My other complaint is that the 1/4" set stops at 14mm while mine goes at 15mm. I mean who designed the layout? They wasted a lot of real estate and could go 2.75" wide or maybe be less.. My final problem, don't try to put in medium length sockets, you will have trouble getting them out.Hope this helps you in your purchasing decision.
