best priced deep well set
By Aaron Nelson
GOOD-the contents said 2- 3/8" spark plug sockets but it's 3/16" and 5/8"-Stanley owns MAC tools so they're probably made at the same place-the case actually holds the pieces quite well-the cheapest deep well set you will find from a reputable companyBAD-the picture is off a bit= where the 3in. extension(for 1/4" drive)is actually where the other spark plug socket resides the 3in. extension sits under the 6in. extension-plastic screws hold the case together at hinge (case is cheap any way but this just adds to the fact)-the tools have the same effect of touching a news paper.(you get blackresidue on you hands)this will probably stop if you wipe them down when you first get themI saw a set of black chrome tools a Lowes manufactured by HUSKY they appear to be exact aside from branding for 69.99, ten dollars more but they're in store the packaging is "different" when you first open the set you will have to undo 10 or so philips screws to remove a clear plastic packaging over the sockets and what not.Overall this set was worth the money

Stanley 92-824 decent but not 5 stars
By J. Hunker
I needed a fairly inexpensive socket set in both SAE and Metric, I opted for this smart-looking offer from Stanley. I paid quite a bit more to get these black, laser-etched set over bright chrome. Although it is a decent-looking set, there are a couple of caveats that I would have liked to have known before ordering.The laser etching is not very deep at all. I can't even feel a depth to the markings. Maybe I envisioned this wrong but I anticipated deep laser markings. It looks to me that after a few bouts with grease and solvents, the gold-color identification will wear off. Not something that would happen with the deep markings on a typical bright chrome set and not a desirable feature when paying more than bright chrome. I am glad they have a good warranty, as long as the markings are covered.I was disappointed to handle the pieces for inspection and have my hands blackened from a coating, which I assumed to be a type of cosmoline to protect the finish. These are supposed to be black chrome. Why would this finish need added protection? So the set would look at smart as the picture, I had to hand polish each piece using WD-40. Not a big deal but not expected, either.The case quality was mentioned in another review. Some pieces fit rather loose in the case and some are very tight, even being difficult to pry out.I came close to exchanging this set for bright chrome and refund of difference but they will suffice for my lighter-duty needs. Looks like I'm the first to rate this set 3 out of 5. This set will work but, to me, it has a few misgivings.

By M. Ladd
I have been very happy with the purchase of this socket set. First, I will tell you that I use it for DIY projects around the house. I am not hard on my tools and do not use them on a daily basis. What I was looking for was a quality set at a decent price, and one that would have pretty much every socket and accessory I may need. This fit the bill perfectly. I know the black finish will seem gimmicky to the true professional, but I like them. I will agree with another reviewer that the case holds the sockets very well - perhaps too well - they are sometimes difficult to remove. Lastly, and MOST importantly, when I am using these tools they feel like a quality product rather than a cheap one. The sockets fit snugly on the handles, and the the handles smoothly release each socket. If you want socket set for DIY home projects which works well, has everything you should need, and you don't want to pay too much for it. This is it.
