go buy a halfords socket set, lifetime guarantee and use them as a proffesional mechanic day to day and not much breaks unless you really abuse them, and even if they do then can just take it back,
the difference in quality between my snap on ratchets and halfords ratchets isnt much

Most of my tool kit as a apprentise was halfords stuff really good only time it failed is when I slipped and my ratchet whalloped me In the face

But would really recommend them tend to last a long time with there finish too so they all ways look good to

That is the set I bought a couple of year ago and still use from time to time and would say that you can't really go wrong with it for general stuff
