Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

This set is great for use with a socket wrench. Will make a big difference when trying to loosen or torque down the 6mm hex studs. They fit my driver perfectly, and held up fine against a few very stubborn bolts.

My only gripe is i wish they were a bit longer or no tapering. A trick i've learnt recently is to put some desiccant packets to dry out the moisture.

Perfect for the weekend tinkerer. The molded plastic case with easily readable slots is good.

I cannot count how many times this has rescued me. I'm a motorcycle mechanic and this has literally every bit i ever needed. This kit keeps 'em all together and ready to go.



Cons

Broke 5/16 bit on low torque hand tool ratchet. Half of them are 1/4 drive and the other half are 3/8 drive. Hardly any torque. The 8mm bit snapped while trying to remove the crank.

Neiko hex sockets are a waste of money. Sk is the next set for me, they are fairly cheaper than snap on but seem to have rust issues. Am going to replace these with a set from proto, armstrong, gearwrench or wera.

Quality


Used them few times so far good quality and finish


I use this set daily in an industrial maintenance environment like it so well i bought a set for my son


Despite all of that, the working end of the tool is completely flawless, having no twisting, significant rounding, or even scratches.


These are not tool truck quality and will not hold up to the very high torque loads.

Price


For the price, i can highly recommend these.


Use that set at work all the time it’s a great set perfect price


Overall, in my opinion these represent a good value.


If i have a choice, in tools going forward, they have earned my business because they sent me $3-4 worth of tools, when the didn't have to.

Packaging/appearance


Bought for my home box and they work fine.


This is a great set but when the box came it was crush on the outside of the box when we open it the case has a den on it, but ...  Read More


After opening the pad inside the box was wrinkled and folded and some sockets are slightly scratched

Competitiveness


I have quite a few neiko products and they have all passed the test of time and they have an excellent price point in my book.


Even though my boss has a set at the shop that i could use (a more expensive capri set), but that set is always going around th...  Read More


I've noticed after not using the set for a while a little surface rust will form but that's not specific to this brand or product.

    Standard hex keys dont have enough leverage sometimes and this set comes in handy breaking those bolts free with a ratchet
