That's a good deal too, but they're a totally different type of spanner, so hardly an "alternative" choice.

That design bends eventually and the ratchet piece falls out unfortunately. The Aldi version look like they'll stand up to a bit more punishment

The Aldi one will be far better quality.

Delivered free. Seems good.

Workzone gear any good? Always need spanners for work, mainly 10 & 13mm.

Any links to one that I could use to unscrew the oil filter cap housing?

Error when trying to order, multiple browsers, or could it be that they don't deliver to Norn Iron

I bought a set of Halfords ones a few years ago. I then bought a set of the Aldi ones about a year later to carry about in my van. Both sets get about the same use.

Two of the ratchet heads fell off theAldi ones in less than a year so I had to drill bigger holes and tap and die a new bolt to hold the ratchet heads.

I'd save your money and buy the Halfords one's personally.

yeah, no comparison between Halfords and Aldi spanners IMHO. I find cheap ones have poor ratchet mechs too.

:thumbsup: These tend to go a bit floppy on the adjustable part over time. Better quality ones would probably retain their adjustability. TOP TIP : I would use these for tightening up to a point and then doing the final turn with a rigid spanner or socket to avoid stressing the ratchet mechanism, or when losening a nut or bolt to start off with a rigid or socket so again not to stress the mechanism unnecessarily.

I've had no problems with mine over 2 years of good use and still in tip top condition, I do pull up with ratchet AND THEN use the open end for final nip. For these size use have to be careful not to over tighten so open end is good enough.
