Have you bought from Toolstop before, are they reliable?

I've been looking at some Teng socket sets as I can't get on with the smooth chrome sockets on the Halfords Pro set I bought. I have the Bahco Hex Keys and it's some of the oldest kit in my toolbox so no doubts about the quality.

i bought both my nail guns from toolstop thats why they email me - no hesitation recomending them.

better than powertoolworld who i ordered my finishing gun from first- waited a week and a bit before i emailed to find out what was happening - they didnt bother to email me to say it was out of stock.

currently trying to stop my self having a set because they are facedrive and a heap of my halfords pro stuff is multipoint guff

Seems a good deal, but cheaper at amazon after you add shipping for the smaller one (and has been for ages).

Ill be honest it was the big one that piqued my interest. Quarter inch is toy car stuff.... Couldnt really justify it even though i just gone home and confirmed all my halfords pro stuff quarter inch stuff is multipoint

Thanks a lot...
Bought 2x 1/4", 3x 1/2" and a 1/4"-3/8" set for work.
6 sets in total £166.01 ex vat.
Winner 😀
Had a 1/4" set for the last 5 years and it's the best socket set I've bought.
Cheers OP

The 1/4 -3/8 set is multi point isnt it- that grabbed my eye also till i spotted that - unless its a different one.... Maybe a good job i abstained - van needs a new battery tomorrow - and the exhaust......

I have the big one of those and a larger one as well. Nice quality. Bahco are part of the Snap-on group, so that should give you reassurance.

Ooh nice. If anyone finds themselves with an excess 1/2 inch ratchet they want rid of, let me know 😉

which 3/8" did you get jamie ? s380 ? are they hex facedrive or multidrive ?

i have a requirement for some hex facedrive 3/8" in the near future - ****ing halfords profesional multi drives dont like really tight and rusty bolts - they just round the corners off :@ - given that all my cars bar the van are at least 15 years old - rust is prevelant ...
