Stanley STMT72795-8 Drive Metric 1/2 inch Socket Set (24-Pieces) & 70-394E Matte Finish Shallow Offset Ring Spanner Set (8-Pieces), Chrome Combo

Intro : Being deeply interested in vehicle maintenance, I started off by purchasing the Younger Sibling of this toolkit, the 1/4 inch drive kit and found it too small for performing 4 Wheeler Maintenance work. The smaller sibling was priced around Rs. 2000 and this one isn't too shy when it comes to pricing either.Who is this for :Someone wanting to perform vehicle and machine work with ease. The sizes of the tools is best suited for Suspension work, Engine Work etc. For interior trims, other screws etc, you must have the Younger Sibling.Quality : A very built product that comes in a sturdy case. Tools and parts are obviously on the heavier side thanks to the work we'd be putting this toolkit to use for. Handles are well textured and the ratchet and drive is built from good quality materials that I expect to last long.What Could Be Better : I hope the pricing drops and even though I purchased it for about Rs. 3000, I hope I can justify the pricing. Would have loved to find a few larger sizes like a 34mm, 36mm etc as some car makers like BMW, Volvo have Larger Oil Filter Sockets while VW is just on the boundary with a 32mm OIL Filter Socket. There is just one Spark Plug tool of 16mm which is fine for my vehicles but again, it's better to have more sizes to help someone else out.

Pros:1. High quality, solid build including box.2. All basic necessary sockets (all are 6 points) for small cars, bikes & bicycle are present.3. Customisable attachments. So you won't need different bars.4. Most of the spares are available on amazon.Cons:1. Additional deep sockets would be nice. You only get one '16mm' 6 points deep socket.2. Pricey. But such sets are costly & this one has quality.Conc:Must have for every beginner DIY car mechanic. Remember the handle is a ratchet wrench & not a torque wrench. Make sure to oil the locking balls for longevity.

Not upto the mark this time as 14 mm 6 point socket was missing. Otherwise stanely is a superb product. To return the product it will cost more than 300 as courier charge that I have to pay. So decided to keep the product.

Be aware you may tempt to rip open complex machines which you have not expertise...Great tempting tool set. solid build.Box is made of good quality plastic. But the slots are not sturdy enough for these heavies.Price is in the higher side, could be around 2K INR>Made in China. American style..Delivered without any extra covering, with just original plastic box with a thin plastic sheet. Not damaged luckily.

This is simply my magic wand!Paid itself over after i did oil service for my 3 cars ( maruti,ford,VW).Stripped RE standard bullet and RX100 for a polishing.Saved me atleast 6000 in labour costs for all the above.The tool definitley made the process effortless.Must buy if you DIY on auto mobiles.Quality and strength: Top notch.

Don't get me wrong these tools deserve a 5 star rating. I've been using it's little brother the 1/4" drive set. And I'm very happy with it. I bought this set when i needed a 19mm for the crank bolt on my car. Both sets are great for DIY Car/Motorcycle guys but the 1/2" drive is a bit overpriced on Amazon. I'd bought it for around 3,000 INR but the very next day it went up to 3,700 INR. If its worth the money depends on perspective and the amount of work you do with the tools. I recommend pricing around in your local tools dealership, if you live in Bangalore you might consider going to SP Road or JC road both places have abundant tool shops you might get a good deal there but for me the tools were a bit more expensive there than on Amazon so I bought'em here.If you plan on doing most maintenance and repair work on your vehicle yourself then this could be an investment and trust me it pays for itself after a couple jobs. Now about the quality and durability they're awesome I used an extension pipe on the ratchet to use it as a breaker bar it worked great (I know you're not supposed to but..). They have some weight to them which is good thing it feels sturdy. One complaint though, the rubber insert in the spark plug tool grabs onto the spark plug real tight, I had to "FIGHT" with it to get it out and it's near impossible to find a magnetic spark plug tool in INDIA so there's that! Just watch Scotty Kilmer's how to take care of your tools video and I have a feeling that these will last you really long.

Good outer box shape design fit. It is the best tool kit set at this price, It covers all most of the required socket sizes, extension bars, drive rachet required for car or any vehicle maintenance needs. If needed you can buy few additional smaller size sockets(6,7,8,9) seprately.

Product is of top notch quality. Bought this 1/2 inch model so that i could repair my own car i'd have in nearby future.😆😆As of now making it useful for my royal enfield.One thing i didn't like is the immature delivery by amazon. The product wasn't packed in any box or even in any wrap. It was delivered in the case itself. The corners of the box have some dent and mud marks due to bad handling.Whatsoever the product is awesome.
