Quality set 03/01/2013
This review is from: Eastwood 29 Piece Bit Ratchet Set
Pros:
Very well-made and nicely-finished. Includes security-type Torx bits, and a 1/4-inch square drive for sockets. Compact.
Cons:
Case is rigid plastic. It's pretty thick plastic, but I wouldn't carry it in a box full of other tools. The hinges look particularly vulnerable.
Overall Review:
This is functionally similar to the old Chapman sets, but this ratchet handle is more substantial, and there is no screwdriver-type handle (which I don't miss). The other end of the ratchet also accepts bits, but does not ratchet. The ratchet has a small reversing lever, so you don't have to pull out the bit and put it in the other side to reverse, the way you do with Chapman. Unlike the Chapman sets, this one accepts all standard 1/4-inch hex bits.
