It’s worth the money
By Amazon Customer on Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2025
This is a really nice ratchet. The fit and finish is unique in that it isn’t just your basic shiny chrome. The locking swivel head is nice to use. I also like the quick release function. My suggestion for improvement would be to have the ability to “turn on or off” the locking swivel head function. If it is off, the you could freely use the swivel head function without it locking into a certain position. Turn it on and have the ability to lock the swivel head into a position.

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.
