Craftsman Professional  13 pc. Metric 12 pt. Full Polish Combination Wrench Set

longer for more leverage,nice looking and lightweight

I've had the standard set for years, finally bought the metric set. They're a little longer than the regular wrenches and the smooth polished finish makes them more comfortable to use.

Wrenches feel nice in your hand work great

The new craftsman professional high polished chrome wrenches are junk.

I have an original set and they are great but I went to purchase a single a few years later they were noticably different. Thinner and the only one I could find of the size I needed was bent. I can't believe theway the current Craftsman company is throwing away years of reputation. 

I was very, very disappointed to find out these wrenches are made in China. These wrenches should be sold under the "Evolv" brand and not the "Professional" brand. Come on Sears! You set up three tiers of branding: Evolv, Craftsman, and Craftsman Professional. Your Evolv brand is for inexpensive Chinese import tools. Why would anyone want to buy Chinese import wrenches for this price when you can get the same Chinese import wrenches for $20? We will pay more for "Craftsman Professional" wrenches provided they're Made in USA and higher quality than the Chinese imports. Way to shoot yourselves in the foot Craftsman!

People ask me all the time why I invest in Professional Grade hand tools. Is there something wrong with the Craftsman Standard Wrenches? Of course not!

My father always told me that it only cost a little more to go 1st Class. Now I don't always have the opportunity to follow that advise. I don't drive a tricked out, brand new F350 with all of the bells and whistles. in fact I drive a 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 2WD.

But tools aren't trucks. And with tools I can afford to go 1st Class. So why not?

The Professional Combo Wrenches come with a highly polished chrome finish. Sure, that makes them look cool, but the real advantage comes from the ease of cleaning. You see my father also taught me that the job isn't done until the tools are cleaned and put away.

My father was a very smart man. You should follow his advice.

I was looking to upgrade from my old raised panel classic craftsman wrench set. I had been wanting the Craftsman Professional wrenches for a long time. Finally with a 10% of sale, I made the leap and ordered them. I ordered both the standard and metric sets. I will spare you the LONG ordeal with getting my order and eventually returning it. When I received my wrench I was somewhat surprised to learn that Sears has outsourced the manufacture of these wrenches to China. The picture shown with the USA on the wrenches is 100% wrong!!! I do not automatically discount tools from China, but I also do not expect to pay a premium for Chinese wrenches. I also compared this set to a old USA set of this same model. My observations: 1. The finish of wrenches is not as smooth and even as the USA set. 2. The openings on the open end of the wrenches are not polished smooth and are poorly machined. The openings are not 100% true to size. 3. The overall feel and quality was not what I expected. 4. I did not actually try to use these wrenches for their intended purpose, since I had paid for one product and received another. They probably would have worked for their intended purpose (with the exception of the size accuracy issue). I returned them.

Craftsman Professional 13 pc. Metric 12 pt – I have owned this set of wrenches as a part of the 26 piece set for many years; I am thinking 20 plus. In that time they have travelled around the world with me and have never let me down. With bicycles and skateboards, the set has proven resilient against two sons who on occasion have left the set or a single wrench outside in the elements. Other than a few barely noticeable scratches, the set looks like new. A few years ago I did have to replace one that sprouted legs and walked away, of course neither son knew how that happened but today; I am unable to tell which one was replaced the older wrenches have stood up so well over the years. Too bad we don’t stand up this well.
