Review on GEARWRENCH 15 Piece Long Pattern Combination Wrench Set With Tool Roll, 12-Point SAE Standard Sizes - Model 81918 by William Groupp

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Disappointed doesn't even begin to cover it.

Like many others I make my living turning wrenches. I was looking forward to upgrading my wrenches. The package got lost somewhere along the way and was late. The wrenches arrived today and after unboxing them I was stunned with the poor quality of the wrenches. Most of the open ended jaws have deep scoring, the chrome finish is cracked and will be coming off soon, stains all over the wrenches, the open ended jaws aren't square on many of them, and many of them have bent beams. The worst part which is why I'm definitely sending these back and going with a different brand is some of the 12 point ends are so thin I can't trust them not to break. Which is going to lead to busted knuckles, cuts and possibly broken fingers. The photo attached is of a 5/8 on the left and a 9/16 on the right. You can see visually how thin the 5/8 wall is. I have used the ratcheting wrenches for years with great success. I do believe the difference in these are the fact they are made in China vs Taiwan.

Cons
  • The wrenches may not fit in certain tight spaces due to their length
