Cheapest of cheap sh!t.

I use mine every day, and don't have any "premium" makes, only Britool, Kennedy and Draper stuff, ...so far they're all ok.

Always thought they were a tad expensive, but was unsure of the quality.

All the stuff im likely to break is snap on. i.e ratchets, breaker bars, picks, punches etc

Spanners are draper or elora

Big sockets are draper expert

At the end of the day if i break one work replaces it anyway, so i can buy a cheap halfords spanner, break it and they replace it with a draper one 8)

Just usefull that snap on is guarenteed to be replaced within a week as soon as the van comes round 8)
