"Just came across this article and I've had this set for ~3 years so figured I'll throw in my two cents quickly. I'm a Maintenance Technician at a youth facility so am typically working on 10-15 different things per day, ranging from appliance repair to pool pumps to building decks. Thus, I need to be able to travel light and have flexibility in my tools. For my purposes, this set has worked GREAT. Its compact and light, but covers lots of possible uses. Of course, it doesn't do any of them quite as well as "the right tool", but it does get the job done prob 80% of the time. I agree w/ the various negative comments... if you're a mechanic working on cars all day, this is not the set for you. If you're trying to bust stubborn rusted nuts free, this is not the set for you. But if you need a flexible all around set that can cover a lot of applications, this works great."
