Post by: Arunmax on 19 May 2014, 08:41:47 pm

Looks a good deal at Lidl and hopefully not made of monkey metal

Any views on quality?

To be honest, for a little bit more than that you can get a halfords professional complete set, and they have a lifetime warranty built in?

I've got their socket screwdriver, alan and hex key set  and also got a ratchet which came with 6 sockets and I say unless you're a brand snob they are good buys and reasonably good quality.  After all chrome vanadium is surely chrome vanadium whichever brand is stamped on.

On the plus side, they are proper 6 sided sockets which I much prefer to the 16, 18 odd point multi grip jobbies. Just my 2p. Going to have a look for sure.

I have found the Lidls tools are really good quality for the money, and my tools get used nearly every day. Because they are a German company they have to be good quality to get through TUV regulations that they have over there..... I will be buying a set

I bought this set a couple of years ago. Fantastic set with everything you need in it. Good quality, robust tools. Have used on bikes and cars with no problems to report. I especially like the small ratchet and screw driver handles.

Buy and you will not be disappointed.
