Case best for power tools and hand tools

I like it too. But the case. I had to pick up all the parts several times. If you open it wrong, parts will fly all over the place. They don't "snap" - they just lie in their slot. This is particularly annoying when you have to search for sockets under things in the garage. Rating dropped to 2 stars

Pros
  • Hand tools
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Great tools, best wrench

This set comes with a good ratchet which is much better to hold than my old 1980's Craftsman 3/8. There is a wide range of head sizes in the kit, which is why I chose this set. Aside from the issues people have mentioned, it smells really awful. I keep my outlets in a drawer organizer anyway, so this case is going in the trash anyway. Sounds like a funny complaint, but if you sniffed this container you wouldn't be laughing.

Pros
  • Tools and household items
Cons
  • Some cons

Craftsman suction socket wrench

Absolute bullshit. I regret finding this on Amazon. This part is used exclusively to tighten the bead lock bolts to 25 ft.lbs. The kid could muster so much force and the thing broke. Do not buy artisans. There's just no quality. This is the 2nd of the set that broke. There is no first photo because I threw the parts in the forest. At least it broke with real force when trying to remove the fixed clamp on the jeep's track.

Pros
  • Super for me
Cons
  • No instructions

Easy Box Fix for great tools!

The tools arrived after 2 days and like the other pictures in the box they were mixed up. Simple solution: I took a sheet of black styrofoam that was laying on top of the tools to use as a template. Then cut out the side of the Revain box they came in. Place the template, cut the cardboard to size and presto - no more loose tools! Tmrw I plan on gluing cardboard to the inside of the top cover and then gluing a black styrofoam sheet to the cardboard. It will be nice and keep everything in place.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Very expensive

As expected. fits hand tools

I grew up with Craftsman tools and now have a 20 year old tool kit that only had hex keys. So I decided to add this hex socket set. So far it's been like every handyman toolbox I've ever owned. It does the job for what I need and the case is great for tool storage. I haven't used the set much hence 4 stars for durability and strength. What I didn't expect was a ratchet. Holding it in my hands reminded me of the feel of the old Snap On. Very convenient.

Pros
  • Heavy duty construction
Cons
  • Non automatic
