Good valueGot through Amazon Warehouse. The damage was extremely minor, confined to the case only and fixed in 5min. All parts were inside and perfect – excellent value

DisappointedGiven as Christmas gift, had been waiting to receive but very disappointed on first use as the die used split within the first five minutes. 😟😟

Good kit including correct drills.Good kit and useful having the correct drill sizes included. I feel it is a little on the expensive side.

An all-in-one disaster. Don’t waste your time.A missing piece, re-painted metal case to cover rust and scratches, visible wear on the parts, along with the crumbling black painting. I am not sure if the seller knows the meaning the word of “new”.

Terrible quality. Made ofI’ve got exactly the same set signed by Clarke, but it is the same but those are just cheap Chinese sets rebranded by those UK based companies. The drills are bad but the taps are disaster. It can’t make the thread on mild steel without loosing a few teeth. Two taps broken in half on simple tasks, the others have broken parts so useless anyway. Total utter rubbish. Good for aluminium at best

Could do betterFor just under £80 it’s not to bad,(I didn’t expect top engineering quality)but at the claimed RRP of around £200 it’s just not on. The taps & dies are quite well made and should be capable of cutting a tidy amount of threads, “but” and there’s always a “but” somewhere,and in this case it’s the most essential piece of the kitnamely the die-holder, it looks and feels like it belongs in my grand-daughters Bob the Builder tool set. Whilst you could get away by using Mole grips or a spanner on the taps if the wrench gave up the ghost, when (more so than if)the die holder gives up then your up the creek, in fact there’s a much much better one in the less than a tenner (for rough jobs)set that I bought in Aldi. So to sum up it’s a fairlygood piece of kit let down only by a silly RRP and a cheap & nasty die-holder.
