I had a car battery on one of those chargers that's supposed to maintain the battery. Unfortunately, rather than maintaining it, it decided to boil it over so I had a puddle of sulfuric acid under the car, on the battery tray, and elsewhere in my engine bay. A few minutes after noticing that, this tool kit arrived so I figured I had a chance to quickly try it out. Note that this is an SAE set without metric parts. Fine by me, since my job was in an older Mustang and therefore wouldn't have any metric bits.

I was impressed right away with the socket wrench, which has 72 teeth for finely tuned turning. The handle is comfortable and there's negligible wobble of the socket itself. There are a couple of extensions and a spark plug socket. The modular screwdriver has the bits necessary for the majority of issues. Now, in reality, this is a starter set. You'll definitely need a bigger socket wrench for those rusty parts, as well as some larger screwdrivers and wrenches, but for a small job like today's, I had everything I needed to remove the battery, the tray, and get everything cleaned up and back together again (though admittedly I needed some baking soda and paper towels, neither of which were in the kit). The case is sturdy plastic and can be hung up on the wall using the carrying handle.

The overall grade of the tools is much better than I had expected given the cost. I didn't get any sense in the first job or two that these tools would fall apart under regular use. This is a great emergency kit to keep in the trunk of the car for little jobs that sometimes arise on the road.

Perfect set for metric vehicles

I purchased this for my motorcycle, later bought another set for our RV, and ended up using it to partially rebuild a small lawnmower. It had all the tools I needed. The only complaint is the opposite of what the other reviews say. Many say the tools are wedged too tightly into the case. I have the opposite problem; you must open it in one direction, as the sockets will spill out. However, the pliers are not securely held on the other side, making it difficult to close with all the pieces in place. For the motorcycle, I just emptied the contents into a leather pouch that fits on the bike.

This tool kit is boxed sanity! It contained both metric and standard sizing tools. Which when I looked up to.see what worked on my Subaru Impreza that was a mixed bag. After a certain year it was made domesticly yet some items were still made opposite to what the rest of the car was, in both cases. So much more appropriate that this has BOTH. If u read enough q&a just on forums online I found nearly all suggested the main type of measurent (metric or standard) for a tool set but time and time.again it was suggested to still have some of the other on hand. Yet again, another great reason this tool.set made.for the car was perfect. Plus when I replace the car the tools will still work with whatever I get. It didn't mention it but it also came with a half dozen smaller & half dozen larger zip ties. Nice add in! The tire.gauze also does not require batteries. Another bonus! I was surprised how compact they were able to package it. Another bonus!

The only things I think it's missing is...

1. A flash light. But really I have never thought a flashlight hidden away is safe having batteries in there and then the corrosion faction. Not to mention most people have phones with lights these days.

2. A reflective caution triangle on the outside of the box. A older one I had years ago I must have left in a trade in or given away had that. But that's an easy fix. I'll just reflective tape on both sides . A triangle is pretty easy to do with tape or dots.

We had already purchased, on a trip one of those battery boosters/chargers that have the clamps already a part of it. We got a second one with an air compressor as part of it. Together with the tool kit, I feel much more independent. Now if only there was a "can of emergency gas" we'd all be perfectly set. I can't tell u enough , what a great value this is,and how perfect it is for yourself, or a gift. It fits all cars, so One size fits all, is so true here. Hope u all enjoy your independence too.

The metric version is the best value toolkit to keep in an ATV, boat, snowmobile, or an older car that you don't trust. It has a full selection of the most commonly used tools at a low price.

The only weak point is the cheap blow-molded case. It doesn't always hold the tools perfectly, and it won't hold up to any vibration or abuse. Expect it to fall apart in a year or two if it isn't strapped in. At that point, just find a stronger case or a roll up bag. Still a great buy.

Excellent, easy to use and soild

I was expecting a lot better packaging for the tools. The case arrived with one of the latches busted off and the tools in dis array when I opened it. I do not think it was going to be this cheaply built based on the price paid for it.

We took off on a 2000 mile driving vacation. I usually take tools and they rattle around and don’t get used. So I bought this. 700 miles from home and the battery died. I had a warranty but have to take the battery out and put the new one in myself. This little tool kit had all the tools I needed. I played “auto fixer” in a C****o parking lot. Saved me a couple of hundred dollars. Maybe the other car needs one too…..

Very good set. Will go well in the motorhome.

Only strange thing is it's age restriction because of the craft knife blade. I had to approve with Amazon before purchase, I got an email saying I needed ID, I got a text message saying I needed ID. Then there is no blade in the kit, only a note saying you can buy them on Amazon!!?!

Great set to put in my sxs

Well made, good size, Handy and perfect for offroad or/and overlanding car kit👍🏼

Order arrived pretty quick! Got this tool kit as spare for car, haven’t used any tool yet but quality looks okay !
