Hey all. I just wanted to share some of the kool-aid. Lol.
The most recent tool purchased is the Micro Ratchet at the bottom... which was the other weekend. This was the first tool I have purchased in what I think has been a couple years. My 3 favorite ratchets...

Snap On 3/8" roto, Bahco 3/8", and Snap On 1/4" roto.

I've grown to like comfort handles, and have a hard time with non-roto ratchets. I have a GW 3/8" roto and a Pittsburgh 1/4" roto at work. Gotten very used to the feel, and the convenience of the swivel head. Get's the job done.

The Titan I picked up at AutoZone for $10. It was an impulse buy. I have not had occasion to use it yet. I can say that it's all metal, with nice chrome and logo etching. The ratchet action is smooth. 60 tooth. Taiwanese. I have another Titan ratchet that has been serving me at work for over two years running. For the kinds of things I can imagine using a ratchet THAT small for... I trust it, or I wouldn't have bought it. To answer your question, yes, it seems like a well made tool.

The Bahco is a fine ratchet. Price is/was quite right. I regret not grabbing the 1/2" and 1/4" while I was at it. I do have a heavy preference to my rotos though, and use a lot of 3/8" drive for automotive work.

Those Snappies set me back a pretty penny. Don't really regret it though. Overkill for home work... but when I bought them, I was required to supply my own tools (not the case now). I'm not willing to sacrifice them to my employer, no matter how much I like my employer. Though after my wife and I pull off a move that we have planned... I am thinking about freelancing myself out for quick/simple repairs for folks in and around the area. Cheap for them, spare cash for me. Still mulling that over.
