BRUDER MANNESMANN Socket Set (215 Pieces)

High quality

The case containing this kit is a huge but very impressive typical German monster containing a varied compendium of everything a DIY car mechanic could possibly require. The weight indicates that for the price, you've chosen something very special. The quality of the bits and the machined finishing of the sockets, the spanners, and the ratched wrenches is first class, and the fit of the sockets upon the extension shafts is precise and very tight, with no loose play on the joints here. For those of you who dont know the name Mannesman, let me reasure you that you are buying a top quality spec tool set. Everything you use feels class, and the range of bits will see you provided with every size you will ever come across. I used this outfit to remove a gearbox and replace a clutch, and every nut and bolt were catered for when it came to the sockets. In summery my advice is clear, if you want a quality kit built to last a lifetime, then pay the price and buy this kit, you will not be disappointed. Its like the difference between a Trabant and a BMW, this kit is worth every penny and is simply superb.

After lots of research I settled on this for my DIY mechanic needs. This kit, is simply brilliant. It has everything you could possibly need and the build quality is superb. Would highly recommend this product.

I've got to be honest this is the best tool set i've owned the quality is second to none the variety of sockets spanners and bars with a lot of other attachment are excellent i would recommend

Genuinely blown away at the quality of this kit. I'd bought a cheap 1/4 set a while ago when I got my first car and I'd always wanted a half decent set but never wanted to pay the price for a halfords set as I don't do too much tinkering.Anyway, onto the product. The box is robust enough to not fail and collapse there's 4 interlocking clasps that hold both parts of the box together. Inside there's a push fit divider that keeps the sockets and wrachets away from the spanners etc.The tools feel very premium, there's a nice weight to the rachet and all the sockets feel like they're built to last. The spanners also feel really nice and nothing in the set feels too cheap.You get a warranty card in the socket set which along with proof of purchase gives you your 10 year to claim within this period of time for any items that may fail.As I say I've bought from mannesman before but this set really does feel premium. I'm glad I managed to get it at its reduced price of £80.

My socket wrench set just arrived and I have spent the last 30 minutes checking over the 215 pieces inside the tool box. I had purchased the tools off the back of the 80 plus 5 star reviews, but seeing is believing. To me, this tool set is worth double what I paid for it. Outstanding quality and feel. Solid ratchet on the socket set handles and every tool is precise and extremely well made. Absolutely love it. Buy it, you won't be disappointed. Great price and product. Well done Amazon.

I've had this set since 2016 and figure its time to write a review. This is a great set for the price, the sockets, spanners and ratchets are amazing. They hold up to very high torques not just from arm pressure buy also I've had socket bits on torque guns and they've held up fine.The case itself is OK, it holds the tools perfect and as long as you open it the correct way no sockets will fall out. The issue is partly down to user error but also design choice. The latches which hold the case together are in a poor place and all 4 of my latches are now broken. They hang over the edge once the case is opened and when the set is near you, there is a high chance of miss-placing a foot and breaking the latch. Of course this is down to user error but I don't want to be walking 20ft just to get a new tool. If they had the latches on the top, then once opened they would be at the furthest place from your work area meaning the chance to break one is much smaller.The other issue is the small alan and torque bits. They are VERY brittle and will either shear right at the end or crack at each spline. I was removing a torque screw a few days ago from a caliper which has a torque setting of 32nm and sheared one of these right at the end, 32nm is no pressure at all and it broke way before I reached this (using a torque wrench). I've broken around 6 of the alan/torque bits and pretty much stopped using them unless I have to.The other thing I've noticed is the sockets and spanners are very corrosive resistant, I've used them in wet and cold and see no signs of corrosion/rust. However, the alan bits have rust on them and I barely use them due to the issue above.My advice, buy the set, bin the alan and torque bits along with the case and buy an old metal toolbox with some decent alan keys and torque bits.

It is ok
