Great tools at a great price,

"I got this to fill all the "gap's" in my tools I've managed to cause over the past 10 years. I used them to drop and re-install a transmission in a Rx300 and they performed great.
The sockeds are all six sided, and I have to admit I was not thrilled with that at first, but after using them more I have not even come close to rounding off anything. The extentions have a bit of a wobble built in as well, and that came in handy.
The ratchets are a bit stiff at first, but have loosened up nicely. Overall I would recommend this kit."

"I bought this set to have in my car, within a week it made it to my work truck. The quality of the ratchets and sockets is outstanding. The wrenches are not as pollished as the others but still work fine, and I'm not afraid to torque on them in a tight spot. I ended up ordering two more sets for coworkers. For this price don't hesitate."

Lots of Tools, Little Price,

"I have been using this tool set for over 3 years in some very tough conditions -- I carry it with me in my Jeep Wrangler on some very challenging off road trips. When you break down in the middle of nowhere you must make repairs no matter what. This can lead to some -- dare I say it? -- tool ABUSE. Not one item in this set has ever failed me.
I have only one tiny complaint: one of the plastic latches broke on the very low profile tool box that came with my set. Not surprising as rough as I treat the kit and box. So I bought a cheap canvas bag and tossed all the tools in there. I never leave home without them."

Good Quality Tools-Would like better case,

"I am a long time Northern Tool customer buying everything from welder/generators, plasma cutters, and automotive tools. I live on a farm and needed a good extra portable mechanic set. I like the quality of the tools but the case seems flimsy and not as thick as a Huskee set I already have. On top of that, one of the plastic hinges was broken/bent on arrival and likes to come loose. It holds together fine when closed and latched. Would still recommend the tools for the value you get over other brands."
