CRAFTSMAN Mechanics Tool Set, Metric, 3/8 Inch Drive, 10 Piece (CMMT34564)

Very nice ratchet for the price.I wish it included a small extension and 19mm but that's just being picky.This is a perfect set to keep in the car or just to have around the house for basic automotive repairs.Sockets are good quality, nice chrome and not super thin.The case is blow molded plastic with an actual metal rod hinge which isn't common on inexpensive sets like this.The best part is the ratchet, it's surprisingly high quality.Low back drag, thin and narrow head, decent chrome, and the screws thread into the backing plate not the body of the ratchet.Usually you only see this on more expensive ratchets so I was pleasantly surprised to see it here.Benefit is if you strip out the screws you can just replace the backing plate instead of damaging threads in the body of the ratchet.I cleaned off the included oil and added some super lube and while it was maybe a hair smoother afterwards it already felt pretty smooth out of the box.Gear teeth are decently deep and the paw makes good contact with a large number of them when in use.I doubt you could strip out this ratchet by hand without a a cheater bar.For under $20 dollars I can't say enough good things about this set.I bought the SAE set just so I could have another ratchet, for the current price there's no reason not to buy this.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:A quality 3/8 craftsman metric set with a smaller 3/8 wrench handle, bigger than a stubby but not full size all in a small quality molded case perfect for car or motorcycle saddle bag.Hopefully it lasts as long as my 30 year old 1/2" craftsman set.

Alright, buckle up, folks—let’s talk about the Craftsman 3/8 Ratchet Kit! This little beauty is like a Swiss Army knife had a baby with a precision watch, and they were raised by MacGyver.Low-profile ratchet? Oh, it’s so sleek it could moonlight as a ninja. You need to squeeze into a tight spot? This ratchet will whisper, “Don’t worry, I’ve got this,” and it’s in there faster than you can say, “Where’d I put that bolt?”Now, let’s chat about the 72-tooth ratchet—72 teeth! That’s smoother than a jazz saxophone in a smoky club. It gives you a glorious 5-degree arc swing, which is just a fancy way of saying it works like magic in spaces so cramped you’d need a contortionist to reach them otherwise.And the 6-point socket design? That’s not just torque, my friends—that’s torque with style. It grabs onto those bolts and doesn’t let go, like a dog with a bone or me with a good cup of coffee.Corrosion resistance? Full polish chrome finish, baby. This thing shines like it’s auditioning for a Broadway musical and keeps rust at bay like it’s been vaccinated against it.But wait—there’s more! The lifetime warranty. Yes, Craftsman’s saying, “We’ll stand by you forever, like the world’s most reliable best friend.” And you know, it’s hard not to love a tool that loves you back.So, in summary, the Craftsman 3/8 Ratchet Kit isn’t just a tool—it’s a tiny miracle worker. Whether you’re a professional mechanic or just someone trying to put together a wobbly IKEA shelf, this kit says, “Relax, I’ve got you.”Five stars, two thumbs up, and a standing ovation. Bravo, Craftsman! Bravo!

Seem durable and a great value for the money- especially with the lifetime warranty. I bought these for a small toolkit I'm putting together and they fit the bill.

sockets are good. RATCHET IS GREAT.Smooth, fine toothed, and fits the hand much better than the other brands. REALLY nice ratchet.

Craftsman tools at a discount price.Quality where it counts.Great finish on the tools.

This is a great little metric set. Very sturdy and compact. It had all the sizes that I needed to replace the alternator on my Z.
