When I began working in the body shop right after high school, I would go to Sears just about every other day to pick up one or two Craftsmen tools for my tool box, but those days are long gone. As I no longer due body work, Sears no longer carries the Craftsmen brand. Lowes picked up the Craftsmen tool line in early 2018, but the Home Depot had an answer to this in the name of Husky Tools.    

  

We took a look at two different Husky tool sets 268 piece mechanics hand tool set (Model# H268MTS) and the 64 piece 1/2” impact set (Model # H64IMPS). The first set we looked at was the 268 piece mechanics set. It already had over 800 raving reviews 

on the Home Depot site, but we wanted to take a look to see what all the hype was about.

Both sets come with a heavy duty hard case which was a pleasant surprise. Everything was organized neatly and even had markings for each piece marked in the box. Each case also has heavy duty latches that helps keep your tools secure while inside. 

The tools were built exceptionally well. The impact sockets are covered in black oxide, and are extremely heavy duty, and the mechanics set are chrome finish and built with the same quality. Not only was the quality there, they looked absolutely beautiful. Both sets have a beautiful shine to them, and scream professional grade!

As for feel, the mechanics set wrenches and ratchets were perfectly contoured to the hand. There’s a smoothness to the ratchets that you don’t see with a lot of other brands, and I was shocked with how well they performed. I would have given anything to have tools like these back in the day.

The one thing Craftsmen always had over the competition was their warranty. Again, those days are gone as Husky. There is some confusion on just how the Craftsmen Warranty works now that Lowes owns the brand. If you purchased the tool from Lowes, they will replace it if/when needed, but if you purchased the tool before the buyout, Craftsmen will need to replace it. This is not the case for Husky as you can walk into any Home Depot, at any time with any one of these tools and get it replaced (no questions asked). Not only that, they won’t even ask for a receipt!

We were blown away with both the Husky Mechanics tool set and the ½” impact set. Because of the quality of these tools, and the unbeatable hassle free lifetime warranty on these Husky tools, Tool Review Zone is giving Husky the best pick for hand tools in 2018.
