When you break it don't CRY!, They will replace it!

    Craftsman tools have been in my family since I learned to work on cars, which was about the age of 11. My Dad owned them and he passed his love of Craftsman down to my brothers and I. My first busted knuckle was done on my Dad's 1962 Chevy with a Craftsman wrench in my hand.    **What you get    **1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" drive ratchets and sockets(125) in both sae and metric in all the popular sizes to do just about anything you need to on your vehicle. 14 combination wrenches (open end and box style on the same wrench). 3 extensions for the ratchets and a carry case. The sockets and the box ends are 6pt which allow a good grip on nuts or bolts. The ratchets are the quick release type, just press the button and it comes off easily.     Not only are these tools functional but they are highly polished as well. Along with the ability to do the job they are also backed by an ***Unconditional Lifetime Guarantee***. A lot of your tools these days have gone to this type of warranty. But Craftsman has been doing it for as long as I have been using them and then some. If it breaks you just take it back to them and they replace it, with no questions asked.     Over the years I have found a few ratchets laying around that were rusted and looked like crap. I walked into Sears and showed them the ratchet and they replaced it! Once while rebuilding an engine I needed a cheater bar on my 1/2" ratchet, well I busted it in half! Yes a 3 foot cheater bar will do that. I took it into Sears and showed them, the guy looked at me and asked what happened. I told him and then he laughed and then handed me a new one.    Thats because not only is their warranty a lifetime one, it is unconditional as well. The only bad part is that they do not cover screwdrivers as they are not designed to take the abuse like other tools are. If a socket breaks like many do from constant heavy exertion, take it back and they will replace it.**    Bottom Line    **Craftsman has stood behind their tools for over 50 years with an industry first Unconditional Guarantee. They set the standard for tools and many have followed their lead. They have improved designs over the years to keep up with tighter spaces under the hoods of vehicles. I would say they are one of the most recognized names in the automotive industry. They not only cater to the backyard mechanic like me, but also the professional mechanic.    So when you need a tool that has a history of Excellent Workmanship and Quality Craftsman is the tool of choice! Get the tools that you can pass down to your children and your grandchildren! The tool that will be replaced no matter how many times you break it.

Craftsman 145 piece tool set

Good Afternoon everybody, I recently purchased this because I'm currently refurbising a 1980 Honda. I needed some new bolds to hold the exhaust fume pipe in place because the old ones were outdated so I purchased this. These bolts are cheap and incredible. These are good quality being made from steel. Another thing I really liked was that it came with wrenches which not not only helped with the car but also with some plumbing problems I wa having. These bolts are safe and real nice. I'm almost done restoring the car and they look great even after 2 months. I'm planning on buying more of these because there so useful. Only bad side of these bolts are that, there so many and it takes a long time to see what will fit in what,

Craftsman Set, definitely for any "Craftsman"

When searching and purchasing tools, Craftsman is the first place to look. The price of their tools are extremely reasonable, especially considering the lifetime warranty on their products! People who use the tools simply for around the house might never have to use the warranty due to the excellent quality; however, mechanics' tools go through hard-core work and will be able to use the warranty again and again because no matter how good a tool is made, when it goes through hell, it will break- and the warranty is wonderful for that. The Craftsman tools are also awesome because not only are they built well, but they look nice too, even when just thrown in a toolbox they still work well and seem to stay reasonably clean on their own- somehow (something about the metal used to make them I think). Finally these Craftsman tools do not rust, which is perfect for those living in states with rough weather (such as snow and rain). Good product: strongly recommended!

An inclusive set for a good value

My father bought this Craftsman Mechanics set for my tool-lacking husband for Christmas one year after visiting and being quite shocked at my husband's lack of tools. My dad has always been a fix-anything kind of guy, and for my husband not to have a relatively inclusive tool set on hand surprised my dad. This set is great quality, is kept in a sturdy case and even a tool amature like myself can easily find what I need to and get to work. We have had it for almost 2 years and have had no issues, the case has help up well despite being transfered from car to shed and back again. The pieces fit easily into their alloted slots, but just make sure not to open it upside down or you will have a task on your hands of puttig all of the pieces back in their correct spots! It is great to have many different tools of different sizes on hand, but don't be too fooled by the piece count since many of them are sockets in a variety of different sizes. All in all, I would recommend this set, and it comes (well, ours did) with a  warranty!

My husband and I bought this Craftman 145pc Mechanics set for our son who graduated from a trade college that specialized in diesel mechanics.  We gave this set to him upon his graduation.  It was a great starter kit for him to use.  The nice thing about Craftman tools is that they have a lifetime guarantee on them.  So if he breaks one he can take it into the local store and have it replaced.  If they no longer carry the item they give a replacement that is equivelent.  Craftman makes quality tools and that is all we have ever bought.

The case is pretty handy...he can take it anywhere. We even take it camping! It was the first of many tools i have purchased for him and there will be more.

Great product and a terrific value

I own a great deal of craftsman tools along with others such as snap on, mac, matco etc. I always check my craftsman catalog before buying any tool because of their warranty and much lower cost.  The warranty (lifetime) is great even though I have never had to warranty a tool in which I was using the correct tool for the job.  Its usually when I loan a tool out and they are using a reg socket on their impact that I have to get a tool replaced.  If buying this set go with the laser etched.  Great time saver and you won't be sorry.
