150 piece is the best value, it was on a little while back for £80, not bad but most sockets are 12 point which im not a fan of, and some are imperial which are not used..

The imperial ones are used to hammer on when you round something off :)

They are good value but 12point sockets aren't the best on rusty bolts :(

I'm no expert, but overall a decent weekend set of tools. Was a great starter pack for me instead of hunting through all my Dad's old tools for half an hour each time. Makes working on my car very enjoyable.

They are good tools for the money. I also bought a few sets when they were cheap. Still got 2 to get rid of!
