I've had for years. Paid this price several years ago. So with inflation I think it's a good price. HOWEVER, the box is crap. Plastic dosnt hold up. Broke in 1st year or so. Lowes warranties the tools but not the box.
So don't plan on carrying the box around by the handle

You reveal very limited life experience grasshopper. Nearly all (perhaps every) FAA certified/approved Aircraft flying gets built with SAE/MS hardware. If you work in aerospace most of the metric stuff can stay at home in your toy box :-)

This or the craftsman 230 set for $99? Bought the craftsman set a week ago and may return it for this one since I haven't opened it yet.

I would prefer the Craftsman. It depends on what you are using it for. The Craftsman seems to have more combination wrenches and fewer junk filler pieces.

I got the DeWalt 192pc as well I just bought the craftsman for the removable trays. If I'm working on something small I want to just grab a tray instead of lugging a big heavy case.

It seems like the Kobalt tool
selection has vastly diminished since Craftsmen was brought in.

Good luck!
