Quality


These wrenches seem to be quite sturdy, and having several wrenches covers a good range of possible bolt holes.


My 17 year old son loves working on engines, originally starting with small engines and now rebuilding an 86’ ram w100 pickup.


This proved to be a painful process and one not likely to be repeated.


The tools are well cast, and with a couple exceptions there are no issues with the thread surfaces that cause binding, and no chips.

Price


This is a great value for the price.


Due to the high price of most good sets i bought cheap ones.

    Ill start by saying that this is a budget set its not a professional grade shop set by any means and if youre someone needing to frequently use it youll probably want to aim for a higher one to begin with


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The set is expansive with almost all common sizes represented making it quite flexible

    Where exceptions exist they are more of a finish issue than a functional problem and i havent encountered one that didnt complete the job

    The handcranks are similarly well built however i dislike the handle system on these as they are small in my hand compared to my gearwrench set which has a wider paddle handle

    I also feel like if i had to torque a bit these handles are a potential point of failure
