- Is this a good first tool set?
- Yes for home and car basics. It covers common fractional and metric sockets, wrenches and bits, though you may add deep sockets later.
- Does it include both SAE and metric sizes?
- Yes. The sockets and wrenches come in both fractional and metric sizes.
- What drive sizes does it use?
- The ratchets and sockets are 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch drive. There are no 1/2-inch drive sockets.
- Are the sockets deep or shallow?
- Mostly shallow. Only a few deep sockets are included, so plan to buy more for lug nuts or recessed bolts.
- Is the case sturdy enough to travel?
- The molded case latches shut and holds pieces in place, but it is heavy and better suited to a shelf or truck bed than a tool bag.
- Does the warranty cover the tools?
