Nice tool assortment for household use
This is a nice tool set for household use. We've never had metric before and came in handy the first day as I needed metric. Has a wide assortment that should cover most wrench/socket needs including allen head wrenches in metric & standard.

Really good foundation set
Tool ranges This set consists of 6 ranges of tools: Sockets and ratchets in ¼” ⅜” and ½” drive size (Metric and SAE) Wrenches (Metric and SAE) Bit driver with a range of bits including nut drivers Hex keys (Allen wrenches) I think most people will either have a flat and Phillips screwdriver or could easily buy one (plus the seldom used Torx bits) and it would be better to leave those out of socket and wrench sets. I think that the hex keys and ¼” driver bits are included to push the tool count up, making up 16% of the 143 pieces. For most people, you now have yet another! Having the nut drivers is good. There is a lot of overlap in socket sizes across the 3 drive ranges, for example, there are 5 10mm sockets plus a 10mm nut driver. This is partly because there are deep sockets as well as regular length sockets. It is a luxury. I would have liked to see, an extension for the ½” drive (there are 3” ones for ¼” and ⅜”), and possible a powerbar also for the ½” ratchet. It would have been really nice if the wrenches were the ratchet style ring wrenches. Quality The workmanship and quality of the tools is outstanding. The sockets, wrenches and ratchets are all wonderfully polished and shiny. They feel good in the hand and the ratchets have button to lock/unlock the sockets onto the drive shaft. The sockets will not fall off. I am not a big fan of these molded plastic tool cases. They certainly present the tools nicely, but what we really want is fast access and storage. The problem with the cases is that either the tools fall out of their places when the case is opened, or the tools are hard to get out and push back in afterwards, or both. They also use up a lot of space you need about 4 square feet top open this case.. The lid of this set holds (just) 32 pieces which are held in place much better than the base, so if you open the case the wrong way up you will be sorting sockets for a while!

Please beware the drawers
As for whatever reason there is no proper locking mechanism for the lower drawers to the box. Very easily the friction latches on the sides of the box will pop open and all the contents will spill out absolutely everywhere. Have fun sorting them out twice over like I did.

      everything falls
      Great product but the only concern I have is the fact that without the felt cover everything falls out of place, it's a very frustrating thing and I just wanted to point that out, but overall a very great product

        The Husky Mechanics Tool Set was a perfect investment. I use it daily as I work on a number of motor vehicles and the tool set preforms very well. I like that it comes with all three sizes of ratchets because no matter what I'm working on it has different size bolts that require the different size ratchets. I've had it for close to a month but like I said I use it daily and it works great.

        Awesome Set of Tools! The Case? Not so much!
        The tools in this set are of great quality and service. The case which house these tools, however, could use a redesign. On a couple of occasions, I have dumped the trays out on my feet- which I can assure you, was not a like-able experience. I give 5 stars for the tool selection and 2 stars for the case :(

          It's a little heavy for a travel box , but it's a good one to have if you need it.

          Tools are nice. Very nicely packaged into a small case. It is amazing the tool selection found when opening the case for the first time.

          The absolute worst toolbox.
          The quality of the sockets and wrenches are fine. The toolbox itself is atrocious. The two plastic drawers are held in with two plastic panels that barely do anything. There is a handle on top suggesting you may be able to carry this toolbox, say, to your car. The drawers will slide out and dump 290 parts on your foot and scatter them to the four corners of the earth. They are heavy in the front, causing the box to lean against the flimsy plastic flaps which pop open. Garbage. Utter trash.
