Our take on the Kobalt Stubby 50-Piece Standard and Metric Tool Set

A 50-piece stubby tool set built around a short ratcheting bit driver, a stubby adjustable wrench and 6-point sockets in standard and metric sizes. The short handles and 6-point socket design are aimed at tight spaces where a full-length ratchet won't fit, and the chrome vanadium steel meets or exceeds ANSI specs. It ships in a hard case. At $24.98 at Lowe's as of November 4, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent price range, with three stores listing it new.

Questions and answers

Is the Kobalt stubby 50-piece set worth it?
For small jobs and tight spaces, yes. At $24.98 at Lowe's as of November 4, 2026, it costs little and covers common standard and metric fasteners. It won't replace a full-size ratchet set for heavy work.
How is this different from a full-size socket set?
The handles and driver are stubby, so the set fits where a long ratchet won't. The trade-off is less leverage, so breaking loose tight bolts takes more effort.
Does it include both standard and metric sockets?
Yes. The 50 pieces cover standard and metric sizes, plus a stubby adjustable wrench and a magnetic bit driver.
What's in the box?
A stubby ratcheting bit driver, a stubby adjustable wrench, 6-point sockets in standard and metric, and assorted bits, all in a hard case.
When is it cheapest?
The current $24.98 at Lowe's as of November 4, 2026 is already near the bottom of its recent range. Watch for holiday tool sales for further drops.
