I am not a mechanic, and as such I do not invest in expensive tools. Which is a catch 22, pay up for quality or pay for the same item twice. I am doing exactly that. I had the members mark set and after about 3 years of abuse, the ratchet that I use most of the time broke. So I ordered this set without giving it too much thought. Overall the set looks to be well made, time will be the ultimate judge of dependability. I knocked off one star because the sockets were most in disarray when I opened them and I had to organize them. During this time I found a 10 mm socket that has zero markings. Hopefully it never gets displaced because I will have zero idea where it belongs.

The 3/8 drive universal joint basically fell apart upon being removed from the case for the first time. One of the pins holding it together fell out. I called Channellock and they told me that they don't manufacture or warranty this tool set. They gave me a number for a place called Allied Tools. The number went to voice-mail. I didn't leave a message. I packed up the tool set and returned it as I no longer had confidence in the tools or the warranty.

I have a few very nice tool sets and got this one for my truck because it seemed to have a nice case, and ChannelLock is a quality brand. I was very pleasantly surprised at the value in this set. Even a cheapo Harbor Freight set or sets would cost this much for what you get, and these are really quality tools. These are not chrome molybdenum, but if they were they would cost vastly more. The ratchets work very smoothly. The case is durable and won't leave you with a bunch of tools and no case. It has real hinges and latches. If these go on sale I'm getting a few more sets for my sons, and maybe another one for myself.

This is a very useful tool set. Also it's not made like dirt cheap.

Great for second tool set to keep in my truck. Excellent price too.

Big set for a great price.

Great set and great tools

Has everything you need for the basics and then some. The ratcheting wrenches are awesome!

This is a well made, heavy duty set that has every tool I may ever need in a mechanic's set.

These are great starter set for anybody that’s interested
