Our take on the Craftsman 262-Piece Mechanic Tool Set, Master Socket Set

This is a three-drive mechanic set: 1/4-in, 3/8-in and 1/2-in ratchets with sockets in both SAE and metric, plus wrenches and assorted hand tools, in a three-drawer case. The 72-tooth ratchets need only 5 degrees of swing, which helps in tight engine bays, and the heads are thinner than earlier Craftsman ratchets. It suits home mechanics and auto enthusiasts who want one box covering most fastener sizes; pros who turn fasteners daily will notice the sockets lack the flank-drive bite and tight tolerances of tool-truck brands. Owners like the range of sizes and the organized case, and complain most about sockets that go missing from the tray and ratchets that feel rough next to premium tools.

Questions and answers

Does it cover both SAE and metric?
Yes. Sockets and wrenches come in both SAE and metric across the 1/4-in, 3/8-in and 1/2-in drives.
Are the ratchets good for tight spaces?
The 72-tooth ratchets need only 5 degrees of swing, and the heads are thinner than earlier Craftsman ratchets, so they fit where a coarse ratchet will not.

For most home auto and garage jobs, yes. It covers common fastener sizes, though you may add deep sockets and specialty bits later.
How heavy is the case?
About 33 lb loaded. It is best kept on a bench or cart rather than carried far.
