Discussion
This looks to be a decent basic ratchet and socket set, and at reasonable pricing. I bought a 94pc Craftsman set maybe 10-14 years ago for $50. 108pc for $60 is pretty good. You get 6pt sockets, which is good, 72T ratchets, which is also good, and a bunch of misc. tools that might or might not come in handy.
There are plenty of socket set deals this holiday season, some at higher price points, others lower. Spending more will usually get you a couple of wrenches, more socket, or a 1/2″ ratchet and some 1/2″ sockets and accessories. Spend less, and you’ll lose out on some socket sizes or will have to choose between 1/4″ and 3/8″ ratchets and socket sizes.
Do you think this is a good deal at $60?
