lowes Kobalt tools

I have always used Craftsman tools and have generally been very happy with them. I keep several ratchets around and use multiple ratchets when I am working on a project so I don't have to constantly change sockets all of the time. If one Craftsman ratchet breaks (and the new ones will), I have backups. I only break one every couple of years, but they are free so I keep going back.

A friend of mine left his Kobalt ratchet in my garage a few months ago. I started using it and really liked it. Smooth polished handle makes it very comfortable to use and the ratchet works great. I was sad when he realized where he left it and took it home.

If I had to buy a brand new ratchet right now, I would choose a Kobalt. Otherwise my craftsman tools are just fine.
