The tools are gone! on power tool

There were sooo many sockets in the box. ALL the ratchets were missing. How does this happen?! Do not buy. A used screwdriver was included.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • I have no bad feelings about it, everything is fine

Become a champion for 40 years!

There is almost everything you need, the socket/s that you need. I seem to have similar sets but I've seen myself lose the outlet I need when I need it! Even with a lid! So I only have one size for everyone. Craftesman is a great brand! Heavy duty ratchets and large heads in both inch and metric.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • A few little things

It was the PERFECT set for my electrician husband

After much searching in store and online this was the PERFECT set for my electrician husband. It has everything you need for work and home. We have a ranch with horses and that came in handy when we had to vacate the stables.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Not as thick as others

Made in China - Sockets & Socket Sets

These handyman tools are made in China and aren't what they used to be. Belts are tight and don't work well. Many bushings are so thin that they appear to break if overtightened. Definitely not worth the money. It's disappointing that such a poor product has been given a name that was once associated with quality tools.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Nice tool set overall. The case holds all the parts if you stow them properly. What I hate most about this set is all the plastic parts on the instruments! Also very delicate. None are broken yet, but you can tell when you touch them that you'll have to exchange them at some point. They definitely don't make durable tools anymore. Quality tools should NEVER have plastic parts, craftsmen are used to taking pride in quality.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Almost never

good sentence. for socket sets

I bought this set for my plane so I don't have to constantly carry tools from home to the hangar and back. I really like this set and have noticed some improvements that Craftsman have made to their socket sets since they bought most of my tools in the 80's. The case opens easily and does a great job of keeping things where they need to be. Millennials don't need these tools as they either tell dad to fix their stuff or take their repairs to the dealer and pay with a credit card.

Pros
  • Highly rated by testers for grip and durability
Cons
  • Secret

Has almost every outlet anyone will ever need, except .

Pros: Fits almost any socket you will ever need except 1" or Torx. Sockets are handcrafted and should last a lifetime. Maybe two. Includes 1 ratchet / 2". Fast delivery. :Case - ONLY open this item on a flat surface and make sure you have it right side up. I spent 20 minutes after first opening sorting through all the dropped sockets. There is a protective shield, but it's on the wrong side - all of these pieces fit snugly on the bar, but not on the exposed side with all the sockets. Ratchet…

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Expensive
