I've always wanted a metric set of these but seems rather expensive still no?

This looks like a good deal, but the Amazon reviews aren't very good on these. A lot of people are claiming missing/wrong wrenches and that the ratchets themselves breaking pretty quickly.

Older ones were better and lasted much longer. I think I read that manufacturing moved to China and things went downhill.

I'm pretty sure I just picked up the 5pc set from Costco for $12 last week. Might by YMMV.

So not all wrenches are equal. But these comparisons are not the same. So these have an angle which allows room for you hands. I will never buy a ratchet wrench without angle or flex head. It's well worth the extra money. This is just from many year of experience with them.

Ok...

Amazon has a well reviewed 7 piece set as one of the first results for $27 every day:

https://www.amazon.com/Crescent-C...812&sr=8-5

And a 5 piece one for nearly half this price. https://www.amazon.com/GearWrench...04&sr=8-19

The 7 piece is not ratcheting wrenches and the 5 piece not reversible and straight. The angle ones are great and your knuckles will thank you.

I had the Kobalt set and the Husky set (with stubbies) and returned them both for these.

Kobalt - plastic retaining clips frequently fail. I don't think they are made in Taiwan anymore either. Red and Blue SAE/Metric indicators are paint only and wipe off. No reversing and no box end angle. Finish was nice and good guarantee, although it seemed likely you'd need it.

Husky - higher quality, no plastic. Stubbies are great. Good finish and warranty. No angle, no reverse.

Gearwrench - best finish and quality. Reversing switches, offset angle. Decent warranty. Highest price per wrench.

Reversing and offset angle are pretty important to me. They may not be to you, but these are the best of the 3 options.

Not sure what part of "ratcheting open end of the wrench allows you to remove and apply nuts and bolts without removing the wrench" you aren't getting but it's that is literally in the name of the item as well lol

And ok? They aren't the right color to match your ensemble too? Sorry. Didn't know it was fashion week. They cost half a much
A "ratcheting open end" is a load of gimmicky crap that doesn't work at all. A reversible ratcheting box end is a whole different thing. Anyone who thinks none reversible ratcheting are the same thing has clearly never worked on a car and accidentally backed one of those into a space you can't remove them from.
