Great set of tools at a great price. Practically everything you need for basic maintenance is in there. According to Camelcamelcamel same price as 5th of December, which is the cheapest ever on Amazon.

Don't forget £25 cash back on £100 spend on items dispatched by Amazon with Nationwide Rewards.
Never heard of Bahco, better off getting something from a well known brand like Silverline or Am-tech.

Wasn't it in the run up to Christmas many years ago when the legend of Loughborough Guy was born - happy days

silverline really? Our old boss used to buy this stuff in as they got great kickbacks. We called them snappoff as far to many tools broke under even light use.

Or some real top of the range stuff like Rolson.

To be honest I would go for the one from Halfords for same money 150pc set Halfords Pro 150 set
You get a lifetime warranty with the set so easy to call into a store and replacement straight away no questions asked, used mine recently and quality is brilliant, I also picked it up cheaper around £90 or so when 10% flash was on with the half price already on the sets.

Yeh, don't trust Bahco, they're a sister company of Snap-on, and what do they know about tool making!!!

Probably made in the same Chinese factory as Silverline and Am-Tech. They're made in CHINA now, not Sweden or USA like they used to be up to the 80s

True. But they seem to have got their act together recently. Probably from European companies demands from likes of Bahco, CK etc to improve quality from Chinese & Taiwan factories producing the stuff, start better practices, use better techniques, (similar to when they USED to manufacture in Europe)

I have this set and it's excellent quality. I would say Bahco and Teng are the best mid range brands.
A lot is now made in Spain. Agree the quality of Bahco has gone down. Saying that I have the £20 socket set that often comes up on here, and it is great.
Bahco tools are still guaranteed for life.

Wasn't aware of Spain. Know they make a LOT of their stuff in either China or Taiwan (both of which are improving quality, it has to be said - although they couldn't have got worse)

Yes Bahco is still a very good brand that I would trust. I've had many Bahco tools over the years and have the S910 set which is very similar to this. No, it's not the same quality as thirty years ago but then again very little is, everything has to be made to a price now.
