Review on ๐Ÿ”ง TEKTON 18mm Ratcheting Combination Wrench - WRN53118 by Robert Sisco

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Ratchet end no longer works

I have bought a few different Tekton tools, this is the first that seems to be of poor quality. The ratchet end of this wrench failed after fairly limited use. It is always kept in the tool box and is used to tighten/loosen a screw that is difficult to access. It looks like the "you get what you pay for" case with this particular wrench, given the "ratchet" end, is kind of a reason you'd buy it. It may well be that sticking to the basics with inexpensive brands is the way to go. I hate giving such a bad review given my experience with other Tekton purchases, but tried calling Tekton customer service before writing this (will update if this turns out to be positive as I have good things to say about theirs customer service heard).

Pros
  • 72 tooth ratchet requires only 5 degrees of operating angle
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
