This is the best deep well socket I have ever owned. It worked flawlessly in both clockwise and counter clockwise rotations. It attached to the 1/2" ratchet with out any trouble. Not only did it preform as expected, but it also made me a really good ham and cheese sandwich.

Does what i bought it to do

Would Recommend

I home brew beer and needed a socket to remove the posts on corny kegs. This socket does the job and was cheaper than the sockets I could find online. Works on both 12 point and regular posts. Only complaint was difficulty removing the retail packaging.

The right tool gets the job done

Would Recommend

Needed this socket for several large nuts on my RV tow bar. Tried different tools to get it loose to no avail. Once I bought the socket and came back home, the nuts came loose in seconds. I like the ability to order a product online and then pick it up at the store - you know it will be in stock waiting for you at the service desk. Thanks Lowe's

Lifetime guarantee

I wanted a 6 point socket but I guess Lowes doesn't carry one. I can use the 12 point but the 6 would have completed my set.

I'm more confident now

Would Recommend

This deep socket was purchased to use in installing the sparkplug in my "better" lawnmower. Using a wrench it was easy to cross-thread or even crack the top part of the plug. This is a 12-point socket ... which lends itself to working in close spaces where ratcheting swing may be limited, which is an overall plus. For the plug, I would have bought a 6-point if there was one. (That's why I gave a "good" for design) Even in light of this, I rate it excellent, because if it were repackaged to be pr...
