Great tool. My new go to 3/8 drive.
Useful as all can be. The swivel allows to clear obstructions with ease, but also to swivel to full vertical for screwdriver-like function, which I used to do with my breaker bar - which of course does not ratchet. I have a few from Tekton now over the years and like them. Good quality.

Sturdy
Very strong and solid built tool with a sleek finish. Feels good in the hand, can attack at different angles, versatile and has the quick socket release button. Well worth the money.

Great set of ratchets
This is a great set of ratchets for anyone looking for a cheap lifetime warranty tool. Of course with cheap tools usually come some cons, this one is that it is top heavy. All three ratchets are top heavy and not well balanced. The handle is much lighter than the head making it feel like you're holding a hammer. The 1/2 inch is the one you notice the biggest difference while the 1/4 is hardly noticeable. If you look passed the unbalance this is a great affordable tool with a lifetime warranty. The 72tooth/ 5 degree of arc you have to make for it to click is great on the more tight corners. The tool feels reliable in your hand and will get the job done, very nice design and construction.... except for the balance...

Very nice set of ratchets.
It's rare that I give anything 5 star, but I've had these for a good while now and they're just perfect. I haven't been able to find any flaws so far using them as my main ratchets. About the only thing I haven't done was put a cheater bar on one, because obviously you're just asking to break anything with a swivel joint when you put that much extra force on it.If you're looking for a set of swivel ratchets, you will not be disappointed in these.

One of my best
The versatility of this ratchet wrench is awesome. Highly recommend it to any mechanic out there. Hopefully there is a version with longer handle. I love it.

The Ratchets I Grab First, I now Have 3 sets of these Ratchets - One Set for Truck, Home & Tool box.
When you grab the Tool's You Think You Need and Come to figure out the nuts/bolt is in a obstructed area, You Will Be Glad you Grabbed these Swivel Head Ratchets First. With these Ratchets you can Swivel around a Obstacle -While Also Providing Downward Force on the Ratchet to keep it on the bolt/nut. These Ratchets also work as a Nut driver, this way you can spin the nut on as if it is a screw driver until it bottoms out and then Swivel the ratchet and give it the final tightening/torque the nut needs. 90% of the time these Ratchets are the only one's i need to do the Job, there are a few circumstances when I need a longer/shorter handled ratchet or an extension and a universal joint to get the job done but as i stated when you grab these ratchets first they can get around an obstacle while also allowing you to push downward on the nut/bolt to hold it in place, something that many flex head ratchets will not do (there are exceptions). Give these a Try and you will also see you will grab these first just for the Convenience of having Multi angled head ratchet when you need to Get Just The Right Angle to Remove/Tighten a Nut/Bolt while also able to apply downward pressure to the part your working on.. TEKTON is also one of the Friendliest and Easiest to Work With when it comes to a Issue with a Tool, Shout out to Taylor & Colin at TEKTON and also a shout out to the Customer Service agent that answers the Phone (Sorry i do not remember Her Name right off but she is also very helpful and nice) Again i have Pictures but for the Last Year or Two Amazon has not let me Upload Pictures to my Reviews, Keeps Stating This - "Hmm, that didn't work. Click the thumbnail to retry." and i do and even changed the format & size of Picture but to no avail .

Tekton is worth considering
I own a few Tekton tools and have been pleased with the quality of them for the price. These swivel head ratchets were a great value. They have a good solid weight and feel. I have big hands so the large rubber grips are good for dexterity. The ratcheting function and socket release button are all adequate. The tightness of the swivel head itself is good and I have read that it can be adjusted by tightening the hex head screws on each ratchet if the head slackens too much for comfort.

Superb 3/8 wrench ….. buy with confidence
Very well made and designed …. Materials used are top notch. The function of this wrench means you can get into some tight locations whilst still operating effectively ….. you will not be disappointed if you purchase one ….. and you should purchase at least the 3/8 drive
