Hard pass. Lowes always gives me a hard time about the lifetime warranty on Kobalt tools. They discontinue something and won't replace it with the new current model. "call Kobalt" is what customer service at the store says and then you're on hold for hours. I don't buy anything from that place anymore. Also, I guess this will probably work for people who don't have tools or know about tools, but there is SO much wasted space in the bottom drawer and "302 pieces" is click bait crap - how many of those 302 pieces are Allen wrenches and screwdriver bits? This kit would be a lot more attractive with less of that and more wrenches in the bottom drawer.

Good deal if needed and the metal clasps are an upgrade from previous years being plastic. The lid items will lose their hold with use over time. While tbe lid is shut, all is contained; once lifted.... it's a catch game to keep from losing an item.

The case is not very good, but if you don't have a tool set already, this is a good starter kit

I've never had an issue. I took a broken hammer in a few days ago and they just told me to grab another one.

Seems like a great price, I bought something similar a decade ago and have lost a bunch of stuff from it, looking at just buying socket sets are way more pricey, will steal from this set to make smaller sets for my van

I bought same set like 4-5 yrs ago. Im very happy w it, had just about everything except torx bits (only has t10,t15,t20). The clips suck, wouldn't want to travel with it, but in a garage just fine.
