There's something special about finding a toolset that becomes your go-to — a reliable companion for all those fix-it tasks around the house or on the job site. From the first wrench in your hand to the ever-growing collection in your toolbox, every mechanic, contractor, or DIY enthusiast knows the joy of having the right tools at the right time. And that's precisely where Boen steps in, delivering a ratchet set that's been drawing the attention of seasoned tool users everywhere.
Reviewed in the United States Customer：My first ratchet set was purchased from JC Pennys a million years ago. I sufficed for my early mechanic needs and was augmented (as most of us guys do) with additional sets or singles as needed. Many years of tool use built up a large group of mixed wrenches and tools, including offerings from Sears, Snap On, SK, Husky and a bunch of knock-offs. This set from Boen is a really nice combination of tools that will address the needs of most common tasks facing the contractor/mechanic/homeowner. At $77.99, the set is priced competitively with the others, barring sales.
Upon opening the Boen set, you're met with that unmistakable gleam of oiled tools, ready for action after a quick wipe down. The tools wear a sleek black phosphate finish, with socket sizes marked in white laser etching for quick identification. Delving into the details, the set impresses with a
72 ratchet which boasts a slim head design, allowing for smaller movements to efficiently tighten or loosen fasteners.
What's particularly noteworthy is the inclusive selection of E-torx sockets, ranging from E5 to E16, and an adapter that makes the sockets compatible with drill-drivers. The set's versatility is further enhanced with a mix of metric and SAE sockets, in both regular and deep versions, all impact-rated to cater to a broad range of applications. A welcome addition is the swivel adapter for extended reach, making even the harder-to-reach bolts accessible.
While the absence of a
3/8" to 1/4" adapter is noted, the set is tailored such that it's not missed; the included dimensions meet standard needs effortlessly. Compact and comprehensive, the Boen ratchet set easily finds its place in mobile toolboxes or the trunk of a car, ready for whatever task comes your way.
The
Boen ratchet set isn't just a collection of tools. It's a testament to quality, thoughtfulness in design, and a nod to the craftsman's journey from amateur to expert. With its durability, comprehensiveness, and reliability, it's clear Boen has put together a set that is here to become the new favorite for contractors, mechanics, and homeowners alike — truly the definitive travel tool kit for any occasion.
