Ratings & Reviews for CRAFTSMAN V-Series 1/2-in Drive Standard (SAE) Deep Socket Set 13 -Pieces
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the sockets for exceptional craftsmanship, thick chrome plating, smooth bevels, and precision fit that feels professional-grade. Many highlight outstanding value, especially with frequent discounts, and appreciate the magnetic tray and aluminum storage rail for organization. The comprehensive SAE and metric range suits automotive work well. However, several report the plastic retention clips break easily and the magnetic tray adhesive fails under normal use. Despite these storage component concerns, most customers consider the sockets themselves durable, long-lasting investments that far exceed their price point.

Would RecommendIf you buy this set or any Craftsman products don't plan on getting any service from Craftsman as they will not honor any type of warranty at all.I bought this metric set and it was missing the 19 MM socket.In its place was an extra 20MM socket instead.I emailed Craftsman.com and explained the problem thinking they would send me a 19 MM socket along with a return shipping label for me to send them the extra 20 MM socket as it was their mistake to begin with.They responded within half an hour tel...
Socket holder broke at 1st use
Would RecommendTime will tell with the sockets but the holder is crap. The plastic socket retention clips fall apart upon 1st attempt to remove a socket.

craftsman tools are great and hold up well.

High quality all in one
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent all in one set. These come in an all in one set which keeps me from losing them. Ready and all together which makes it so much easier for me to grab. High quality metals mean your sockets don't bend. These hold up to high torc and do not strip. Craftsman knows tools. You only get top quality when you buy them.

Real Quality
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The The V-Series 1/2 Inch Drive SAE Deep 6-Point Socket Set is durable, well-made and can handle the toughest jobs. My partner used this set to help with changing out a transmission in his Tahoe. The length is great to keep your knuckles from getting scraped and he is hard on everything and these have really handled it well. Very great set!

Storage rail is brittle. Sockets are nice.
Would Not RecommendThe sockets are good. Standard Craftsman quality. The storage rail is garbage. One of the clip studs was already broken when I opened the package. The very first socket I tried to remove from rail then broke the next clip. The clips are connected to the rail only by two tiny bits of plastic. Of course the warranty only applies to the sockets and not the rail. The sockets deserve a higher rating, but the set is rated poorly because of the storage rail.

Best made
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This are very strong sockets. You can put a lot to pressure on them without them braking or stripping the bolt. My husband was so excited to use them as soon as we received them. They are perfect for those at home projects.
