Good price for a set of really strong long handle flex heads. High backdrag and non-user serviceable design turned me off from these, but for occasional/DIY use these would be great to have around if you only have standard length ratchets.

Chrome handled version also available if comfort grips aren't your thing: https://www.lowes.com/pd/CRAFTSMA...acted=true

In the item description there's no place indicating the length of the ratchets. Eventually I found the information in a Youtube review (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yIQRfeiJe0). They are 16", 14", and 9", respectively, for the 1/2, 3/8, and 1/4 drives. The relatively short lengths discouraged me. BTW, there is also an interesting review for the 1/4" drive one at https://www.amazon.com/Craftsman-...C1TRT?th=1 (i.e., the one with pictures).

My local lowes have this set on display as well as another set without the longer handles. I think it was supposed to be a black Friday display, and they screwed up.

It's a nice review, that guy is awesome. But he didn't test the ratchets' resistance to flexing.

When you try one of these out in the store, the ratchet head flex seems very stiff. But when you attach a 19mm socket, or a socket + extension, now there's a lot of weight on the head and a lot of them will flex too freely. And that's a big deal when you're reaching way down (or up!) into an engine compartment to reach a bolt, and the thing slips off the bolt. You want the flex head to be very stiff. I haven't tried these, but that's the thing to look for.
