This is great value.

This socket wrench set is a bargain. It includes 1/2", 3/8" and 1/4" adapters that give wrenches much more flexibility when tightening and loosening screws in tight spaces. The 3 adapters also come with a handy holder to hold them to keep together in your tool box. I like them!

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Almost everything ok

Inexpensive and practical set

They don't come with that many attachment sets and sometimes you just need one. Great value for money, they seem sturdy enough as I've used them a few times so far. I recommend having a set in every tool box. I don't know if they really get a lot of use, but most people aren't professional mechanics. I like the storage bar as it makes it easier to find when needed.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Expensive

Wrenches not impressed

Screws tried to work loose from connections on first use and this happened after being torque checked prior to use. The body of each of them is much wider than I expected. They are used in places with limited access, which makes them difficult to use. They're inexpensive and I still use them; However, I would like to invest your money in a higher quality set.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Upgradable

Good quality. for wrenches

For the money I expected something less impressive and much worse quality. When I first picked up the set, I was shocked by its weight. I then took the middle one out of the bracket and was again surprised at how smooth and smooth the connection was. No bumps or tight spots, and it doesn't feel like it's falling apart on you. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for some quality but don't want to pay a premium retail price.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Thought they were good at first

I like to research everything I buy online and when I was looking for a quality universal joint kit this one caught my eye. I guess I'm the kind of person who's willing to spend a little more to settle down. Boy was I wrong. Sure it's nice and slick with a metal stand, but the connections aren't up to par with the cheaper set I brought from the port to finish the job. I was in the process of replacing the alternator and used a 3/8 adapter to get to the bolt, as soon as I turned the ratchet theโ€ฆ

  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
