Craftsman used to be good. Dunno if it's still good nowadays. Ive heard people say they've dropped in quality.

The harbor freight 301 is the one to rule them all. Definitely not this. Largest socket size here is 21mm. Wish it went to to at least 24. Preferably 27.

About 15 years ago I got one of the last Craftsman Made in USA sets from Sears for $70.

Considering the massive inflation, this set is a great price at $99.

People have accepted that unless you're going to pay Snap On or Matco pricing these days, your tools are going to be made in China, and that's perfectly fine considering most tools carry a lifetime warranty nowadays.

Everything has dropped in quality in recent years with cost cutting and outsourcing.

Personally, I only use HF rachets though. Addicted to the rubber handle. Hurts my fingers with bare metal nowadays.

If you own a Honda or a Toyota you really only need 1 socket, a 10mm. J/K

I don't remember having to use larger than a 19mm like ever except on an axle nut. I got the impact socket for my car for $3 from HF.
