I am not a professional mechanic, just an "advanced" DIY'er that owns 2 E90 BMWs so I do spend my weekends wrenching more often than not lol!
I am usually a big fan of the HF tools and the Quinn system is nice because it comes with longer extensions and adapters the milwaukee set doesn't, it does appear to be hardened differently though. I have already noticed there is significantly more "mushrooming" of the anvil side on the Quinn sockets vs the Milwaukee ones. No big deal but could speak to some longer term issues keeping the sockets on the anvil.
2nd most noticeable thing is the Qinn is "laser etched" just on the surface so they do wear away if the sockets rub against parts while in use. My 12mm socket is starting to get a bit difficult to read on my Quinn. The Milwaukee ones are recessed into the socket, but then filled in with paint which is way easier to read in my opinion.
Conversely though, Warranty on a if ever needed, is going to be much more difficult vs just driving down to my closest HF and swapping the Quinn one. It does suck that Milwaukee didn't do the packout compatible case, but in my case that doesn't matter since I use the Rigid system instead.
While each have their pros/cons, I do find myself reaching for the Milwaukee set much more often.
