Draper Expert socket sets?

[Pilatus]

Do you find the above of reasonable
durability as considering 1/2 drive one for use out in the field?
How ever much one pays tools get lost,especially in stubble / swaths or perhaps it is only me being careless

I've had 2 or 3 of there sets over the years , always seem well made, and reasonably priced,

[Warp Land Farmer]

I've had my Expert set over 20 years now and it's been faultless.

my son works for John Deere and has quite a bit of draper expert stuff good kit but he now likes the snap on tools as he gets a bit more money

 

[joe soapy]

the ratchet spanners ore also good, but need decisions when buying, do you get the switchable or not, ratchet each end or combination.
draper expert with the lip or without, or would the britool ratchet with 4 sizes per spanner be enough.
indesicion has so far prevented my replacing my 3 pairs of stillsons[ why is a single wrench called a pair

They wouldn't sell the expert range to us, for some reason.
Good value on E-Bay and you can almost see them in the stubble's

my bet is the tanker driver, some drivers refused to go next door on their own if they had passed the bosses car on his way to market

and some would be 10 min late at the next pickup

My experience of draper expert is it will comfortably last until lost or seriously abused.

 

[Steevo]

Happy with my 3/4” set. Only downside is the silly plastic cases....but that’s common with all brands.

I've had a big multi socket set for over 10 years. 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2". Been a great set until this year when I have had the 1/4" rachet fail and several small bits break. They have a life time warrant on them but to get parts change you need to have the original receipt. Try finding that after 10 years plus.

One benefit of online purchases, email invoices and cloud accounting.

Or a good reason to keep copies of anything with a (lifetime) guarantee in one folder.

Have a couple of half inch sets, get the rarchet replaced now & again foc but other than that fine.
