Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt 238 -Piece Metric and standard (SAE) Mechanics Tool Set (no case)

Great set

1st off most other reviews didn't care for all the small bits, but I found them very useful and like having them. 2nd the short wrenchs are also nice, as this a filler kit to go with other sets I have, to make a complete set. I like the kobalt tools and fell they are a good value and better than the new craftsmen model that Lowes also now carry. Hope this review helps you make the right decision for you and it really doesn't matter what someone else puts down, if it works for you!

everything you need

great kit!!!

Good, but not perfect

Great tool set, but really annoying that there aren’t a 9/16”, 5/16” and 11mm wrenches. Some of the most common sizes that I use. Yes they are there in the mini wrench sets, but those are too short for a lot of the things I need to do. Other than that, it’s an awesome set with nice foam to keep everything organized.

Great value nice foam trays

Great value, wish they sold a bigger set

Incomplete set!

There’s no 9/16” wrench! It goes from 1/2” right to 5/8”…what the heck happened to 9/16”?!?! Unreal!!! Other than that it seems ok, just can’t believe they skipped right over a 9/16” wrench!

Great ser

Good overall quality. Needs less screwdriver bits and more sockets tho.

Solid set

Too many bits that will never get used, but otherwise a solid set.

Cobalt hand tools are great tools.

I needed a diverse set of tools for my toolbox and this set worked.

Nice set

This is a very nice set. The only problem I have is I bought the 9 drawer tool work station and the cut out forms do not all fit. There is a lot of wasted space on them. I had to buy socket organizers to be able to put my sockets in my drawers.

Quality tool set.

Great tool set. the foam fits right in toolbox and keeps everything nice and organized.

Incomplete wrench sets

I regret choosing this set every time I need a 9/16” wrench. Why would these (and the 11 mm) not be included?

Kobalt Can’t Measure

How do yo design and sell a set of tools marketed to the “home garage” but make the product to wide? The foam inserts will not in 99% of home garage tool boxes…..including the Kobalt tool boxes.

Truth

this is exactly the great deal it advertises to be. unlike others who wrote reviews, I was neither surprised or disappointed that the wrenches are shortys. if you didn't see that in the pics then you didn't look. great value to me bc I actually wanted exactly what it said, and showed, that it would be. kudos to Kobalt!

Quality product

Very good product at this point. Never realized though each piece has a spot in the foam type of trays as it doesn't fit in my tool box. But bought for my son taking a welding class and needed a set. Tried to buy a top quality so it will last him in his career.

Good tools - Bad tool set

I bought this to have a decent tool set at my shop. I would not buy this set again and probably would have returned it if I hadn't opened everything up before discovering the following: 1) There is neither a 9/16th nor an 11mm wrench in this set. I can kind of see leaving out the 11mm (though I use one quite a bit and it was the fist thing I went for upon using the tools for the first time) but I can see no logic to not including a 9/16. I'd really like to have a 13/16 and a 7/8 wrench as wel...
