Ratchet: Power & Hand Tools

I found the ratchet worked sloppy and the flexible head dangled and changed angle randomly. Poorly done but no problem reached the bin. Don't waste money.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Can't remember

I like this ratchet length but I had a broken paw.

I like this length of ratchet but mine had a broken paw on the inside. This means that I could only loosen the screw, not tighten it. Went to Harbor Freight, bought a $5 ratchet and replaced the arms, now the ratchet works perfectly.

Pros
  • Nice thing
Cons
  • A little repairability

Best tool in my tool collection, most used item!

Ideal for tight spaces and does its job perfectly. The only downside is that the head needs to be a little stiffer to hold the offset position or keep the head in place. The length is perfect for the extra torque. I will be buying another one for my truck tool box though.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • 0

Don't know what to complain about. The swivel head locks are as strong as any other tool and hold just right. The socket holder also holds the sockets fairly firmly and the gears are good enough for tight work. All finishes are beautiful. For a very cheap product I am more than satisfied.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Crumpled

Good value for money wrenches

Bought this ratchet for occasional use when needed in tight spaces. I've used it to remove some fairly tight fasteners and for a 1/4" head it's pretty solid. Its length would be a lot more useful if the flexible connection wasn't so messy. Too much play in the flex joint to loosen and little room to turn the ratchet. You ended up buying a snap-on and living with a huge price difference. It is worth buying quality, so only buy it once. For the home, this tool is fine and won't break the bank.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Only available in black

You will regret if you buy this.

Those who said it was a Tekton ratchet were wrong. This Chinese ratchet is of very poor quality. I got the answer that this is a Tekton ratchet. The first time I used it to loosen a bolt, it slipped on a tooth and then fell over. I tried using it but felt like it broke a tooth and jammed the ratchet. Do yourself a favor and buy a Gearwrench 1/4" Long Ratchet. I returned this poor quality ratchet, bought a Gearwrench and have no regrets.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Poor instructions
