1/4 in., 3/8 in. and 1/2 in. Drive Standard and Deep SAE/Metric Mechanics Tool Set (579-Piece)

great set for the price I paid missing a couple deep sockets that they have in the 1/4in but that's fine it's a perfect toolbox to have in your car

Opening this box is like Christmas Morning and I'm a child again. There are all these shiny wrenches laid out in a custom tray all in a row. Then drawer after drawer of more beautiful shiny tools.This is the kind of set even a guy like me can stay organized with. All the sockets and wrenches in SAE and metric sizes. There are Torx drivers, Allen drivers, and nut drivers that all adapt to a handle. The box is strong and can be transported to the jobsite. The drawers easily slide out and then they're a tray. The open lid becomes a surface the trays can be set on while you're working. They are made by a company I personally like, GEARWRENCH. To call it a Mechanics set is a bit of a stretch unless its an appliance, bicycle or sewing machine mechanic. While an auto mechanic would get use out of these they'd need some heavier wrenches to go with them. This would be a great set for any household. All those tools in a space-saving case would fit most of their needs. Great gift for a young person, boy or girl, to set them out on a practical education of building and fixing things. Start a toolset they'll have the rest of their life. Because those that can, do for themselves, and those who can't pay somebody else exorbitantly. Tools are an investment.

Gearwrench did a fantastic job with this kit. I really like that its compact. It comes in a secure case that is easy to carry and has shelves that come out with the tools secured in their slots. I love keeping this in my car garage for quick access. I took it out twice today to fix my sons bike and do a quick repair tire replacement on my sons scooter. When I travel I plan on taking it with me as well. You never know when you'll need tools when on the road. There's enough tools in there to fix most things. Its just enough for peace of mind and to get the job done. With the holiday season upon us, this is the perfect gift for anyone needing tools! To add, if your a DIY'er like myself this is a nice addition without breaking the bank. I would recommend this any day all day to anyone looking for tools!

This is a pretty complete set of wrench tools that I have been looking for. I wanted an integrated, shelved container that wouldn’t rust but was easy to tote - that would contain the usable variety of wrenches and key drives I would commonly use on my car and equipment. Nicely made tools and great organization. Especially like the open-end and ratchet wrench combos.

A great value. The tool chest is just a bonus! Same great quality tools you get when buying individually. A good assortment. The tool chest is pretty sturdy. Weakest point is the clasp holding the lid closed. Its pretty hard plastic that will eventually crack. The case is sturdy enough you could screw on metal clasps when that time comes. The 3 trays slide in and out easily. They come completely out which is great. You can put the tray on a table or ladder without lugging the entire box. I would like to see a snap on cover for each tray because the sockets could move around if they get bumped too much. Won’t be an issue if your on paved surfaces. The sockets don’t snap in, they just lay on top which is good and bad. All in all a great set that should last your lifetime.

The GEARWRENCH 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch-Drive 90-Tooth Standard and Deep SAE/Metric tool set is an excellent tool set with one minor flaw—there is no room to add additional tools—having one additional empty drawer would be really useful. Over the last few years, I’ve come to respect the quality of GEARWRENCH tools, as the quality and price point are hard to beat. I have a fairly extensive tool set in my garage but what I didn’t have was an easy-to-grab tool kit I can throw in the back of the truck when heading out on the trail or when camping—this tool kit fits this bill wonderfully. Look far and wide, but please don’t overlook the GEARWRENCH family of quality tools.

The GEARWRENCH 1/4 in. and 3/8 in. Drive 90-Tooth Mechanics Tool Set (232-Piece) is just great. It is well organized in the tool chest. Every piece has a designated place. All the wrenches a great! They are strong and very sturdy. They have included the most used wrench's in the set. The carrying case is sturdy and easy to get in and use. The drawa moveeasily and smoothly. This almost a must have tool set.

This review is for the GEARWRENCH 80949, 232-piece Mechanics Tool Set. The set is contained in a four-layer tray system inside a high-impact plastic carrying case. The case makes for a well-organized storage and display system. Three of the four trays are sliding drawers that are readily removed for complete access or storage elsewhere. The top tray for ratcheting box wrenches is not readlly removed, but can be by removing six fasteners. The trays are clearly marked as to the tool sizes. This set includes mostly 6-point sockets, although a set of 12-point metric sockets (shallow type) is included. The set includes a 5/8-inch spark plug socket. Both 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch, 4-degree arc ratcheting socket drives are included, both of low profile design with flush reversing levers and very comfortable-to-use handles. The ratcheting box wrenches have 4 degree arc ratcheting as well. The 12-point sockets, both shallow and deep, have off-corner loading to avoid rounded fasteners, a handy feature. The sockets are well-marked with deeply engraved numbers to clearly indicate their sizes. Most of the pieces are, where appropriate for hand tools, chrome plated, the finish of decent quality. This set is made in Taiwan for ratchets, sockets, extensions, magnetic bit driver, bit sockets and Torx sockets. The ratcheting wrenches, hex keys and screwdriver bits are made in China. This set has a Limited Lifetime Warranty backed by Apex Tool Group pf Apex, NC. Overall, this is a very good quality set that meets the needs of this handyman well, one reason being its completeness for the kind of work I do.

As soon as I got this toolbox I couldn’t wait to take it apart. I couldn’t wait to check everything out and see how everything worked so as soon as I got it I took it out to the car. We started working on the car then we started working on a van and then we worked on the motorcycle these tools are holding up very well. We haven’t worked on anything heavy duty such as a diesel truck or anything yet but it’s nice that the drawers can come right out. And how the tools can snap right in and out. Did your drawers are easy to put right back in once you take them out on the ground.

The first thing I noticed was GEARWRENCH did not skimp on the number of ratcheting wrenches included in this set. To often, companies will leave out a number of wrenches to make a set hit a certain price point. The wrenches are made from strong alloy steel with a bright, full polish chrome finish. The finish makes it easy to wipe off the wrenches and keep them clean. The wrenches have a sturdy feel to them, the ratcheting action is solid, you can really bear down on bolts and not worry about the wrenches breaking. The sockets, the 1/4” and 3/8” ratchets are well made. They have a solid feel and the Chrome plating is consistent over all the tools. The Ratchet handles have a comfortable cushion grip. The sockets are plated on the inside to help with clean up after using on oily, greasy projects. The sockets are engraved with easy to read size markings, and the socket walls are thick and should last a long time. The magnetic Bit Driver has a nicely designed handle with a non-slip surface. The bits are organized in their own carrying case. If your going to include a bit driver and bits in a tool set, this is how it should be done! The Hex Keys are Long handle Hex Keys. They are arranged in easy to read plastic sleeves. I find I use long handle hex keys 99% percent of the time. Lastly, the tool box is well designed. It is made of a durable plastic that won’t break. The 3 drawers open independently of each other and can be removed from the tool box and carried closer to your project area. I like that I can grab a ratchet and take the socket drawer, without having to bring the whole tool box with me. The drawers are locked by closing the side flaps on the tool box. The sockets and ratchets are held securely for travel without having to “pop” the pieces in or out of their slots.
