Descent set for the money. If you take care of your things. This set will last you a lifetime. I've been working on cars for over forty years. I have some top brand tools like Snap-On, Cornwell and Matco. Even though Craftsman tools are made in China these days. You still can't get more value for your money. By the way if someone wants a descent tool cart to put these in for the money,. You can not go wrong with the
U.S. GENERAL
30 In. 5 Drawer Mechanic's Cart from Harbor Freight. They have them on sale now for 199.00 A really nice tool cart, well built for the price.
Make sure you remove the 10 mm socket before giving the set to him. This way he understands the struggles of life lol 😂 #LifeLessons
Good day everyone So this one or this one? https://www.lowes.com/pd/CRAFTSMA...5000183143

Wish I would have seen that. I wanted a set of six point 1/2" drive sockets and ended up getting a set from Tekton for about double the price of that for just the sockets. They are nice sockets though.
It is a nice portable set for emergencies, but at about 35lbs, a bit heavy for some... If DeWalt came out with this same set in 12 pt, I would buy it as well for an almost complete set of sockets in three drives. As I remember, it was missing the 5.5mm to be complete.

Personally, I do prefer the SnapOn copied round handles found on Husky, Tekton, GearWrench, etc., over the flat handled DeWalt and Craftsman ratchets.

Tooldeals is correct about the DeWalt set and the price during BF. All 6pt. and sold out very quickly.
Then it popped in and out a few times.
And there were some that complained that the sockets were too difficult to remove from the case.

To the contrary, I and others bought these 192pc DeWalt sets [dewalt.com] for $89 delivered.... all 6 point and if you need the allen wrenches, no filler items. Also manufactured in Taiwan and not China.

Spot on comment. I missed every one of those deals too.

Not certain it was Black Friday, but around that time, I actually set the timer for those and had in the cart ready to go.... The prior free shipping code ended the same moment the sale was to start and thought I might catch it.... but the sale started a few minutes early and was easy free shipping.

The case is what it is... kind of tight, one could WD40 or they will loosen a little over time and usage.

Any suggestions for matching socket rails to fit all these?

Was in store looking for this deal. Saw this one instead. It contains a metal case. Thoughts?

That one doesn't come with 1/2" sockets. This Dewalt set seems to be a good deal for $99, including 1/2" and all 6-point sockets. Case appears to be cheap/flimsy, though.
