5.0 out of 5 stars Great tool-set for it's price, July 8, 2008

It's possible that there is another better set for the price, but this one has everything I need for now. I agree with the previous poster's complaint that the spaces in the case for fitting some parts are a bit small and hard to work with at times, but it is not so much of an issue to make me less satisfied. If you have next to no tools and just need the basics, this is probably all you need. If you already have some of the tools included (hammer, tape measure, screwdrivers, etc). You may want to consider investing the money in other higher quality parts (e.g. a good multi-tip screwdriver set).

I am a tool guy but needed a simple kit I could carry to my 70 year old mom's house and do some odd fix it jobs. This is perfect. The reviews complaining about the case and how things may fit and BLAH BLAH BLAH are not in context as far as being relative to what you pay. It works GREAT and is well worth the price. I mean, come on people! You don't buy a 1994 Mazda Miata and say "It doesn't go 195 mph like I hoped it would and it won't take my 14 pieces of oversized luggage and it's not as nice as my Ferrari (I couldn't spell Lamborgini) blah blah blah. Great kit if you need simple but all encompassing tool selection!

For someone who's needs a starter toolkit, this set does the job well. The pieces seem to be made of a higher quality than the similarly priced Allied 105-piece toolset (which I think the extra 26 'pieces' are just screws/nails). Things just feel more 'firm' and less flimsy than the Allied set. It has most of the bits and tools you need for doing small fixes and furniture assemblies. The ratcheting bit driver is definitely a plus on this set.
