WorkPro 8 pc Flex-Head Ratcheting Wrench Set REVIEWED

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Can Workpro tools be used in a professional environment? This video shows how they stood up to about 4 months of use mostly at home but I did throw them in my tool bag for work a few hitches. This is the Workpro 8 pc flex head ratcheting wrench set that is sold on amazon for around $45. That makes is the cheapest on amazon at the time of the video which raises the question, can you find quality tools at cheap prices? This tool review of the Workpro 8 piece flex head ratcheting wrench set will show you just that.

    For the price its not bad for a set to have at home, but for an industrial maintenance mechanic it doesn't cut it. The scratches wouldn't bother me to much but the skip in sizes (8,16,18,19) is a deal breaker. Thanks for the review!

    I like the tool roll. I recently picked up a Workpro toolbag on a deal, and for the price it is actually a decent tool bag. I have other Workpro hand tools, and they've been decent for the DIYer. Honestly, even with the paint issue, a guy like me would pick these up since I don't use ratchets that often.

    The tools worked...they functioned properly, they didn't break, and your biggest strike against them... was the coating scratched off... I can't imagine wrenching and desperate to get a drive shaft installed and I see the tool coating is scratched off: "NFW.... I quit" ... That's it Never working on a rig again..."" My tool boxes are Frankenstein sets... all brands...I even have one or two snap-on and Mac. Mishmash of SK, Craftsman, Proto, Knipex.. Husky even Hobo Freight tools, I use wrenched for hammers... Just because of this ONE, issue, I'm buying some of these workpro. Stripping the coating off will be a badge of honor...

Think as a car, does it run? Yes! Does it goes back and forth? Yes? Are there dents and scratches all over it? Who cares? It brings you from A to B. Nah… I like my car looking good too. haha
