Quality


I bought this set because i needed a high quality, heavy duty yet comfortable set of 1/2" drive sockets.


Solid connections on fasteners, smooth ratcheting action.


My job is strict on tool inventory and this is not a good look to be missing a tool especially when the kit is brand new.


The sockets just fall out of their tray holes and pile up at the bottom.

Price


Good metric socket set, especially for the dollars.


For the price and quality these are unmatched.


The price was a little steep though.


Very good for the money half prive of snapon

Shipping


I called gearwrech directly and they sent a new one, no charge.

Packaging/appearance


Love the way the box is set up, very easy to find what your looking for and easy to pick up the sockets.


The set comes in a heavy duty box that is strong, easy to carry, and use.


I just received the tools today and i am impressed with the packaging and the quality, however, my kit is missing the shallow 7/16" socket.


It arrived in undamaged shipping box, the product box was still sealed in the wrap, however it is missing the 8mm socket.

Competitiveness


Feel way better than my craftsman set and rivals my smaller snap on socket wrench.


I like these sets better than my dad's snap-on sets.


Almost every other manufacturer incorporates quick release, so i can't understand why gearwrench doesn't on some of their sets.


I do like them better then craftsmans, and comparible to my snap ons besides the quick release.
