I love the way you can grab a set of tools that has a place for everything, go and get the job done, wipe the tools clean and put them away. If there is an empty slot or space I look for and find the tool and my set is complete for the next time I am called out to be Mr. Fix It. Less lost tools. I find the 170 piece set has the best value. It plus a hammer and I am ready to go

Great all around tool set with a quality finish. Combination wrenches feel great and are made to last. 3/8" and 1/4" Ratchet are also very well made. They come with a socket lock to prevent sockets from popping off like the old days. All sockets are easy to read and are listed in both metric and in inches. Case is well made and holds everything almost in place, excluding the sockets which are not securely in place. Despite other reviews case DOES come with black latches to lock the case, as seen in the photos. They are attached to the plastic wrap over the case. Just snap them on and your done. No instructions for snapping them on, only takes a second to figure out.

The Crescent 70-piece tool set is probably the best bang for the buck, period. Mine was purchased for $49.12 on Amazon and it was absolutely worth every single penny. Must buy for those who already own pliers, adjustable wrenches, etc!

Thank you Cooper Hand Tools!

I have owned this kit for about 5 years. Very practical and tools are durable. The guy I bought it from says that Crescent's warranty, is send it in and they will send one back. I have never had to. I build log cabins and other handy work. This is a go to box. Only two complaints
1. The 4 tabs holding unit closed are flimsy-Only one tab left
2. Some of my pliers are missing-one is at the bottom of a lake in Canada

I paid 100.00 for mine which I think was a good value

If you are looking for just the tools, this is an ok buy.

The product packaging and storage case are total piece of junk though so if you want the tools and plan to use them often I suggest getting a better case. As noted in the other reviews there are fasteners to latch the case shut, but they come separately to be clipped into place (also junk imo as they are very cheap plastic which broke instantly).

We ordered this as a Christmas present. As shown in the photo the item arrives open faced with a clear hard plastic screwed onto the surface. This clear cover however is super cheap plastic and arrived cracked; Upon opening our Amazon box pieces were sent everywhere since nothing was keeping them in tact...what a mess...pieces under tables, under the couch, one the cat batted off as a toy. We pieced it back together eventually after finding them all, but that was seriously annoying to have to even bother with if the packaging were at all thought through from a customer perspective. Additionally all the pieces don't stick in their slots within the toolkit as they should in a standard tool kit making the case itself quite useless. Each time the kit is opened many of pieces fall out if the user is unaware that the case is junk. Worthless.

3.5 star tools, 0 star packaging... so 2.5 stars I guess.

the item Crescent CTK70MP 70-Piece Mechanics Tool Set with Storage Case is good, , very strong and useful. I recommend it because it helped me a lot

I am a little disappointed with this tool set. I use Crescent Brand Crescent Wrenches almost every day at work and they are a great tool and about the only wrench I have found that holds its place and doesnt lock up or come loose.

This tool kit is pretty close to bottom end in my book. I expected more from the Crescent Brand of Tools. The hand wrenches are good and the sockets and extension seem to hold up well. The Ratchets them selves are really cheaply made. I feel like if I put to muck torque on them they are going to break. The lever on them to switch from forward to reverse is very poorly made and I dont see them lasting much longer until they break off.

I gave it 3 stars since the wrenches and sockets will last for a while and I have several extra Craftsman ratchets that I can use when the Crescent ones break (I just hope I dont break a knuckle when they go).

Got these as a starter set for my just-moved-out-of-the-house son.
Nice sized, pretty good variety, better than expected quality. I was pleased, he was pleased.

I REALLY like this set of wrenches. The first thing I noticed is how heavy this set is... there is a lot of steel in these tools, and I was glad to see that not everyone is skimping on steel in their products these days. They are well organized in the plastic storage case, and don't flop around or fall out when handling the case (note to Crescent, a black case wouldn't look as inexpensive as this gray one does to me). The wrenches have a beautiful chrome finish to them, and the two ratchets make such a great clicking sound that I found myself subconsciously spinning them around in my hands for long stretches. I've used the set on a few different projects and have always found whatever I needed to tackle and finish the task at hand. You won't be disappointed with this one... a great look, feel, and function for a reasonable price!

I received this tool set from my girlfriend as an early xmas gift. I was happy with the quality of the product. I mainly wanted it for working on my motorcycle or doing small jobs on my car, so the fact that it includes both SAE and Metric tools is very nice. You can tell they are good quality, the wrenches have a nice weight to them, so far I have had no issues. Very good price, isn't much more than the bargin bin brand sets you might find at your local walmart, so the extra cost is well worth it. Highly recommend this set for doing small jobs yourself.

Obviously this was an item that I shouldn't have purchased online. The tools are fine for my 19 year old to keep in his trunk but the storage case has NO fasteners to close it. Sure the case is sturdy but without being able to lock closed it's inconvenient to carry and just not practical. I could have just bought tools and a toolbox but thought this was the better choice - oh well!
