Good quality BUT has an issue
This is a great kit, fairly close in quality to the Blue Point kit that costs almost 3x as much.
BUT
The fitting/adapter for 4.75mm flares is too small. The nipple is too small and causes the wall of the tubing to essentially "fold" over while creating the flare and cause the hole to be too small. The upside to this is if you have access to a Snap-On dealer, you can get the adapter for around $30 from them, as it threads right into this tool. So all in all, to get this kit up to professional specs, $100 all in is great compared to $170 for the Blue Point one.
I would still recommend this kit, because it is nearly identical to the Blue Point one, BUT I would stress to get the proper 4.75mm adapter from Snap-On before making any bubble flares for that size.

This kit did what I needed for replacing brake lines in my car. It looks like it will last for a while. Bubble flares are really much easier to do than the standard double flares and I learned that pretty much all cars use bubble flares now. I like the plastic case with this set--much easier to store the tool and see at a glance all the parts have been put back. The double flare tool I have owned for years only came in a pouch and it was hard to be sure all the dies were accounted for when putting tools away. I think if you use a bit of lube and watch a video or two of folks using this tool it will work well for even a beginner, but will be something you have years in the tool case.
