The Halfords Advanced 28 Piece Metric Socket Set 3/8" is a great value set, containing a good selection of the most commonly used metric sockets.
The set is part of the Halfords Advanced range and is covered by the Lifetime Guarantee*. The set comes complete in a robust plastic carry case, which keeps all the sockets in a neat order.

That size square could possibly be OK as a CHILDS PLAY TOOLSET but is an absolute waste of time and money for any serious work above loosening a 6mm nut. And NO one in their right mind would pay £80 for a toy toolkit.

What on earth are you talking about? 3/8 drive is perfect for sizes between about10mm and 15mm. I'd use 1/4 for 6-8mm, and 1/2 for 17 and 19, but if you want a single set to cover all these sizes then 3/8 is the best compromise. 1/2 inch drive tools are much bulkier and heavier and unnecessary unless you have a seriously stuck bolt.

completely 100% agree. ive been fitting cctv inside a Vauxhall Drive servicing department all week and the only thing i have seen in every bay is Snap on tool chests. not seen any of the professional mechanics there using Halfords tools :stuck_out_tongue: . Its a bit of a joke to call this a professional tool set.

It's a bit of a joke to be offended that it's not a "professional" tool set for £20.
