great little kit for the price! the sockets, ratchets, spanners and attachments are solid and well made however the only two problems I've have with this kit are missing sizes and the driver bits are a little on the weak side.cons:some of the sockets jump sizes, for example the 1/2" goes 15mm, 17mm, 19mm, 20mm. so when you hit a 18mm nut you either have to see if you have a spanner in the lid or a spare one in your other tool boxes, they're not hugely common sizes but a little sigh inducing when you do stumble across one.now the screwdriver bits, this was my biggest disappointment. You are given a pretty expansive selection here, if there's a screw head you can think of the fitting is in this box.However, you better hope that screw isn't torqued down too hard because the metal/alloy the bits are made of is quite soft. not really really soft you can still put some power though them, but you try taking a posi-head screw that has been there for a while and only to realise you warp the head by the time you break it off its seat it's a bit disheartening, but I suppose the silver lining is when you put the screw back in you can warp it back to it's original shape ; )pros:massive selection of bits 95% of the things you need to do either on the car or in the house will be in this box,very well made, feels solid in the hand and seems like it can take it's share of abusewhether your an amateur mechanic or someone who has got all the tools and just looking for some sacrificial tools to smash over rounded nuts. its a great kit (not perfect) and definitely worth the price.as for the box debate... in my opinion its all down to how you treat it. yes its a softish type of plastic and yes you'll snap the clips off if you don't put the bits back properly and try to force it closed, and yes all the bits will fall out if you open it upside down and that is the case with even the most expensive types of socket sets. But if you treat it with a bit of care it'll last you, it's portable, and it'll stand up to the abuse of even the most clueless DIY'er

I've had this set since 2016 and figure its time to write a review. This is a great set for the price, the sockets, spanners and ratchets are amazing. They hold up to very high torques not just from arm pressure buy also I've had socket bits on torque guns and they've held up fine.The case itself is OK, it holds the tools perfect and as long as you open it the correct way no sockets will fall out. The issue is partly down to user error but also design choice. The latches which hold the case together are in a poor place and all 4 of my latches are now broken. They hang over the edge once the case is opened and when the set is near you, there is a high chance of miss-placing a foot and breaking the latch.Of course this is down to user error but I don't want to be walking 20ft just to get a new tool. If they had the latches on the top, then once opened they would be at the furthest place from your work area meaning the chance to break one is much smaller.The other issue is the small alan and torque bits. They are VERY brittle and will either shear right at the end or crack at each spline. I was removing a torque screw a few days ago from a caliper which has a torque setting of 32nm and sheared one of these right at the end, 32nm is no pressure at all and it broke way before I reached this (using a torque wrench). I've broken around 6 of the alan/torque bits and pretty much stopped using them unless I have to.The other thing I've noticed is the sockets and spanners are very corrosive resistant, I've used them in wet and cold and see no signs of corrosion/rust. However, the alan bits have rust on them and I barely use them due to the issue above.My advice, buy the set, bin the alan and torque bits along with the case and buy an old metal toolbox with some decent alan keys and torque bits.

Genuinely blown away at the quality of this kit. I'd bought a cheap 1/4 set a while ago when I got my first car and I'd always wanted a half decent set but never wanted to pay the price for a halfords set as I don't do too much tinkering.Anyway, onto the product. The box is robust enough to not fail and collapse there's 4 interlocking clasps that hold both parts of the box together. Inside there's a push fit divider that keeps the sockets and wrachets away from the spanners etc.The tools feel very premium, there's a nice weight to the rachet and all the sockets feel like they're built to last. The spanners also feel really nice and nothing in the set feels too cheap.You get a warranty card inthe socket set which along with proof of purchase gives you your 10 year to claim within this period of time for any items that may fail.As I say I've bought from mannesman before but this set really does feel premium. I'm glad I managed to get it at its reduced price of £80.

I needed some proper tools to change the timing chain to my BMW. Everything was perfect, all the tools required were in the set, they all survived as it seems there are good quality.The only downside is the case, the inbetween separator and the clamps have some very sensitive pins which holds on to the case. 3 pins are broken already, two from the clamps and one from the separator, although I was very careful with them. Otherwise the tools are great, good quality, as I said.I would definitely recommend this set, just be extra-careful when handling the case itself.

Quality,quality,quality. This socket set goes above and beyond anything you would normally see at this price bracket. Some have mentioned that the case is sub par, that's a bit harsh, yes it's plastic but it's not as bad as some have said and is perfectly up to the job. The other thing is you will not want to be carrying this set too far as it is very heavy so the case will mostly just be for storage. If you are looking for a comprehensive socket set you would honestly be lucky to do any better. It rocks!

These are probably the best priced ratchet set for this amount of pieces, German built so you know what to expect, (younger tradesmen, German built means quality) I was not disappointed, considering what some well known brands are offering for 150quid, these are an absolute bargain.

I am a mechanic and have more tools that enough including duplicate sets. I have all these tools already but not in one convenient carry case. I have now. Amazon is the cheapest and quickest place to buy this. Case is not terribly strong.

This is a brilliant kit. The tools and attachments are very high quality with a nice finish and feel solid and strong in the hand. There is nothing lightweight or cheap here, these are quality tools that will last for years.

I tried to use this set for the FIRST TIME and the biggest ratchet does not work!edit: I got a new one after 2 days and I've sent the old one back. It works very well!

Great box of tools - seemingly quality made and in a molded case to keep things organised. Ideal for car maintenance projects. Great value.
