Main gripes about this set seem to be... size markings not laser etched so they'll wear off or get covered by dirt eventually, stamped markings also, but they're somewhat small and difficult to read, metric sockets only go up to 24mm, case may need an additional pad inside to keep contents secure when case is closed, very large and heavy set, so not easily portable.
Update... just received my set. Seems to be excellent quality. Nice grippy texture, and the markings are laser etched, not painted... or at least they don't scrape off with my pocket knife.the ratchet wrench seems decent enough. About 70 clicks per rotation if that means anything.
Another commenter complained his set started to show signs of rust. Well these sockets are not chrome plated so if your in a humid or damp environment I would expect to see rust on them. You can eliminate the humidity or keep a thin layer of oil on them in storage to help prevent rust. Easy enough to do.
Also a few complaints about the ratchet failing but looking at the pictures they posted looks like cheater bar issues! I have never seen an impact set like this that includes a ratchet. Just keep in mind that even though it may have impact ready hardened steel on the outside the gears in the ratchet are typical steel I would assume. All in all however it seems like a great buy.
So why not have only deep sockets then? Because for certain things, especially working on cars, space can be tight and sometimes there is simply not enough room for a deep socket to get in there

This has a lot more for the $ and the ratchet is a nice touch to save you from having to sling out the socket set too when the impact can't fit.
