I have the five drawer cart in my home garage in orange. Never really saw a need to change any detailing on it. I think it looks fine the way it came out of the box.

Tape, no mess. Easy to carry in the tool box or on the tool belt.

I don't even like auto ranging.

I use my impact driver all the time with sockets. I do not use impact sockets 99% of the time. I also have an air impact and an air ratchet. I use them rarely, the air line is a hassle. Should you use air, make sure you use a hose reel. I should have hung mine from the ceiling. That may...

Pinching off a gas line while you change an inline filter on a mower. Or add a filter... Done the same for small airline when working on a machine and we preferred not to shut the air off. Rounded fastener removal.

My "localist" hardware carries Channel-lock brand. All of it I have bought is pretty good stuff. Pretty handy that they sell individual sockets and wrenches.

I had a couple of sets that had round head ratchets. Those might have worked ok, but I so fondly remember needing to pry sockets off with a screw driver. Those are the biggest reason I MUCH prefer QR today. I do have the style in the OP in 1/2". It is my go to when I need heavy duty. It has...

I got another 3/8 Pittsburgh set on sale for about $4.99. (Metric) Used them at work today. Taiwan made, never had a problem. It's all I have at home.

https://www.doitbest.com/ They carry Channel lock brand in store. Check for the closest one near you. Or in my case the nearest three! They are everywhere around here.

Well I can't, so I'm not too worried...

I want to thank everyone for their input. I heard pretty much what I thought I would. I have both styles. I have come to prefer the QR. I won't be trashing any of mine, but I think going forward QR will be my preference. I just bought a new Milwaukee 3/8 set with the flat sided sockets. I...

I see a lot of negative comments about these. I was working on my brakes last week. My hands are covering in greasy grimy gopher guts and I need to change my socket. The ratchet I'm using is not quick release and I have a heck of a time getting the socket changed. With my quick release I...

If I was starting over, local availability would move to the top of my list. For one warranty is easier. And you can buy as you go. More than a couple of times I have needed some size that didn't come in one of my sets. Normally that means a larger size. I could run down to the local...

I just bought the five drawer roll around cart for my home garage. It's nice cart, I would but it again. Nicer casters than I expected.

I used one off my HF coupon App this weekend for the 5 drawer roll around cart. I'm still getting new coupons every month on it. It also shows the "monthly flier." I downloaded one for HF tools, but it is not as good as the coupon app.

I always consider warranty issues when I think about "better tools". First I consider how hard it would be to get a replacement for an older better made tool. Then I think, well if it's better made whats the odds of ever needing the warranty anyway. Then I recall, I'm not needing the...

My wife may have a different option, but I'm not a tool collector. If my tools where a guitar one might call them "players".

Because we still need both...

I still find myself using it on lots of projects. My "best" impact is still air. I still blow stuff off, I still air up tires. I even have a HF spark plug cleaner that works OK. My compressor is cheap, but oil filled. If it goes belly up I would replace it.

Changed the oil in my DIL's Focus.
