How many of you have them? I seen a really good deal on some today while I was shopping with the boyfriend and I am thinking I should go back and buy them. It was a set for 29.99. They were on sale. I really am feeling guilty not buying them.

I have them in fixed and flex, they work great. I think I have warrantied the 12 flex and the 14 flex, but have had them for 6 or 7 years, and use them everyday.

Cheap, good warranty, very useful, solid build quality ... I think everybody should own some in common sizes in the very least

Is it 8-19 or the standard equivalent? I have a couple gear wrenches I use and I do like them...but I like my blue points better...

As I stated in another thread, the 20pc SAE & Metric set will be 50% off (about $50) right around black Friday at Sears.

Now just trying to figure a way to get a set without having to deal with the madness of BF...

The 20pc set are the zero offset non-reversible wrenches. The sets on sale are the 8 piece reversibles, in both metric and SAE. I'm going to swing by tomorrow to see if they are capstop or not. I hate capstop...

I have the flex head, fixed head and the stubby ratching metric wrench sets and they are a life saver while during auto repair work. Nice tools to own.

I have the reversible set I got in the late 90's for Christmas. Been underwater twice (Ivan and Katrina) but still are going strong.

Thanks guys! Ordered SAE an Metric - I have metrics but Kobalt brand mostly and not reversible. I have no SAE ratcheting so I figure for $29 it can't hurt to have. Thanks again!

I have the 20pc set from Sears. Never ever thought I'd buy any since I never really saw a need for them. Bought the set on a whim since they were 50% off last summer and use them as much or more than regular wrenches. I'll use a regual box end to break something loose or tighten, but the ratcheting feature is really nice on long threaded items. Like tightening the nut for a gas tank strap!!!

Gearwrenches are great. Anyone know when their ratcheting flare nut wrenches are coming out?

Who knows?
I've got a bunch of them, mostly zero offset combo's. Absolutely love them.
Also have the double box ends with 2 sizes per side so 4 total sizes. Great wrenches.

Have a ton of Kobalt too, very nice.

But the best I have are the locking flex head's from Craftsman. Use them ALOT!
