Corresponds to the advertisement: Wrench

Reliability will show in time. But out of the box, they make a solid impression. 1/2 used in some hard to reach places to get to the spark plugs. Handles medium power well, no problem. In my opinion, they are not made for loosening rusty screws, but for getting into hard-to-reach places.

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • Negative is present

I wish you could fix the steering angle actuation

Nice set. Seems to be strong. I have another ratchet (from another company) that has a knob to lock the ratchet in different positions. They don't, and that sometimes makes it difficult to keep the bushing on the stud. Hence the -1 star for no actuation blocking. Otherwise these ratchets appear to be quite decent.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Very expensive

Outstanding quality, the best in power tools and hand tools

These ratchets are great and innovative as the swivel head has a design that is partially secured with a spring detent. The extended handle provides better reach and torque. This reach is amazing, use them all the time, I really like this company's tools, they also have a set of 3/8" and 1/4" cobras, they are even a bit longer and very strong.

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • Obsolete

Must be purchased for each technique.

Good . OK. I'm the technician using them and I have to say they are amazing ratchets made in the USA. Their only downside is that the head is very large, so don't pray for low ground clearance, but they pretty much replace the breaker. Overall I would give its usefulness 5/5. Assembly 5/5. Release 3/5. Number of teeth 4/5. Reliability 5/5. Weight 3/5. Really good product and they are not cheap which is why they weigh so much.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • No achievement

Works quite well: Power and hand tools

Ok I was very happy to get these as I need a set of expandable ratchets and they even have flexible sockets. It holds up well so it doesn't wobble and the ratcheting mechanism is solid and crisp. My only complaint is that there is a lot of play when the ratchet is fully extended and there is no confidence that the tool will hold the tool in high torque applications. I said it doesn't inspire confidence

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • There are new competitors

These ratchets are very smooth and work well . So far they appear to be of good build quality. However, upon use, I found that the swivel head moved too easily for my liking, making it difficult to hold the bushings securely on the bolt head. I really wish they had a pan head position lock. If they did they would get 5 stars. If the hinge was stiffer they would definitely get a higher score. This may not be entirely fair (3 stars instead of 4) as it is clear that the pan heads do not have a…

Pros
  • 72 TOOTH GEAR - Reversible 72 tooth ratchet that only requires 5 degrees of rotation
Cons
  • Some bugs

Essential Tool: Socket

Fantastic set. I use the 1/4" the most as it fits tight spaces and can also give you good leverage. The other 2 are also used fairly frequently. Full time professional mechanics should have this type of ratchet, long term they would be there better to find the highest quality swivel head ratchet set you can find, like snap on as they are probably your most used tool in your toolbox. They will cost you extra bucks over the years.$.But for me , a retired mechanic on a budget this set is great…

Pros
  • EXTENDABLE - Handles extend for more reach and more torque
Cons
  • Doubtful

Almost great. for power and hand tools

and a lot more work for it. I bought these after watching the Chrisfix video it had similar if not the same rattles for the most part they were fantastic and delivered as promised they really let me work in tight spaces and handle anything I threw at them. It's been like this until today, today I had to pull old parts out of a broken down truck (forearms) and I broke a 3/8" head. I used an extension for more leverage as they were intended. The bolt broke out on the pros. I have not yet…

Pros
  • 3 PIECE KIT - 3 piece set includes 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" quick release ratchet
Cons
  • No automatic front end
