Duracraft ratchet, good?

[RalloZ35]

I bought a 1/4'' Duracraft Pro Slim Head 72 tooth ratchet it has a lifetime warranty, and its made in taiwan but hey, it seems to be good quality. Anyone have experience with these? http://www.farmandfleet.com/products/481511-slim_head_72_tooth_ratchet.html Thanks.

Given the price, just buy one and give it a try. By the way, since its not a USA tool, you will get at least one or two posts saying that its a total *************, useful only as a paperweight, by people who have never used the tool.

It's not going to be a Dual 80, but it may very well be alright.

Well Thats what I figured, its 12 bucks, if I like it I may buy a 3/8 or half. I was going to buy an Allen 1/4 but this was cheaper and thought Id give it a try.

its looks pretty cool.. its probably similiar to a gearwrench soft grip but a slightly thicker head (probably because it is quick release)

Lol, Speaking of the quick release, My 1/4 sockets dont even have the little notch to lock onto the ratchet :/

Its looks like the Taiwan ratchets that have the 72 tooth.

Well, Thats what it is

I would get this Gearwrench ratchet. This is a better ratchet.

Well Im done buying tools now for awhile (lets see how this goes ). But next time I buy tools, its gonna be a Craftsman set. Im gonna get a new top box to fit all these tools! So thats the plan, Ill see if I can get this plan worked out.
