It's a beautiful toy/tool, but it's a little to-fancy and dainty for greasy grunt work. It's fun to play with the different things it can do, it does have nice smooth fine-tooth gearing, and it's very nice to have a ratchet that can double as a ratcheting nut-driver. It's also cool to show friends. But, I was first disappointed to see that the green plastic direction change wheel rubs slightly on the metal frame when in the ~45-degree head position. The same green plastic direction change wheel is a little tough to grab with greasy / work gloves. I was recently further disappointed that under heavy torque, the rubber handle flexes at the end, such that the internal steel handle stops a little short of the end and allows the rubber to flex. The rubber handle, and miscellaneous angled parts are difficult to clean after oily/greasy work. For automotive work, I'll be looking for a flex head ratchet with a steel handle. I'll continue to enjoy my little "transformer" ratchet, but I've decided that the added bulk of the fat rubber handle is nice for a play-tool / nut-driver backup, but the added bulk is out-of-place for automotive work.
