thats a matter of opinion. i worked with snap on and mac...i dont like either one of them...im a pure craftsman lover...never had a problem with tools breaking or stripping out. but thanx for the info about the socket. im tired of having to use pliers to get the damn thing off...lol

Idk, I like Matco persoonally, the tools are very light and never had a problem with breaking them. I have broken quite a few things from craftsman. Do you use the professional series or the regular version? I have the regular version and the Pro series seems much more precise and a bit lighter.
