Is anyone going to reply, or should I just remove all this. I would greatly appreciate it if you would because I really need this info.

When they first introduced them my dad picked up one of the big complete sets from a tool rep and it was about $30 after the rebate. I've borrowed them acoupel of times just to see what they are all about. Overal they are nice and are made to handle some abuse. In a few situations I had to scratch my head and think for a second to figure out how they where suposed to work or what some of the pieces where for. It's a pretty universal set of sockets and I think it's a pretty neat kit to carry with you on the go but, I don't think I'd be replacing any of my tools with them.

I have a set, there isn't anything wrong with them. I'm a Master Tech and I think i have used them maybe three times tops this year. Just don't buy them with intentions of replacing something.
