Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt 299 -Piece Standard (SAE) and Metric Mechanics Tool Set with Hard Case
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the tools for excellent build quality, durable construction, and comprehensive sizing with clear color-coding for SAE and metric sizes. The 90-tooth ratchets operate smoothly, and thoughtful features like magnetized bit holders and locking levers earn consistent appreciation. Chrome-plated finish and solid weight deliver reliable performance for automotive and home repairs. However, many report significant frustration with the tool case, which frequently fails under normal use—handles snap, lids detach, and drawers jam or won't close properly. Despite loving the tools inside, several customers state the case alone prevents repurchase. Overall, reviewers recommend the tools but caution about case durability.

Pretty good set for what you get.
Would RecommendOverall a good 3/8" set to keep in the truck. Includes all the most common sizes and a bonus for me at least is they are all 6 pt. sockets. The only real downside is some of the smaller deep sockets are 1/4" drive so you have added length due to having to use the adapter and reduced ability to put some torque behind it. All and all its a pretty good quality bang for the buck.

Nice starter set
Would RecommendGreat starter set with nice selection of "critical" components. Would be nice to have a smaller ratchet for harder to reach areas but this set covers a lot of bases. Linesman pliers are great, can find so many ways to use them. Lifetime warranty coverage at the store is always awesome
