Coincidence I just watched the purchase video and this comes out today.

There are negative comments about clean and organized tools on every toolbox video I watch. Makes no sense. Almost like people take pride in working out of a dirty sh*tbox. My brother is a diesel tech. He uses the living crap out of his tools every day. He wipes them down at the end of the day before they go back in the box (religiously; bordering on clinical OCD). Most of them look brand new. I gave him a hard time about it once (because his cleaning routine was cutting into beer drinking time). His reasoning was pretty simple...

"If I am working on a guy's semi and I bring him out to show him something, I want my toolbox to be a reflection of my work ethic... clean, organized, meticulous and efficient.... If I had a half-million dollars tied up in a semi, that's the kind of guy I would want working on it. Think about it... If a guy isn't willing to take care of HIS OWN stuff, why would I want him touching MY stuff?"

Hard to argue with that...

A clean tool box and work top is a sign of madness

[merkinyall]

“So far I’m liking them” dude literally bought every single thing they make. That’s love

[stevekrewson]

Alot of comments about how clean your tools are! My dad taught me when I was young to always clean your tools when you're done and put them away where they belong. I watched your vid because I just picked up a few sets of Icon wrenches and wanted to see if people liked them or not. When I was 19 I started my first job as an industrial mechanic and bought Craftsman sockets, ratchets, screwdrivers and wrenches. They were all pretty good, but the best thing was the convenience of being able to exchange for new when they broke. Only had to replace 1/2 inch ratchets and screwdrivers. I get attached to tools that I have had for a long time. I would still have them but they washed away in a flood a few years ago and now I'm starting over with my home tools. Hope these Icons do good for me. Great vid, Thanx.

Ive been getting my snap-on box full of icon stuff lol. I dont work on cars I just love shiny chrome tools.

[frankmontez]

I need those drawers. You’re organized. My tools are in bags 😂. I’ve got three cars and I do some repairs and almost all the maintenance

[randyaldana]

Truly making me want to start buying Icon much cheaper and look exactly like snap on as well

[brandoncartwright]

Ive snapped many ratchets and sockets when starting out and using 3/8 for everything. I bought impact sockets and used them on hand tools, that stopped broken sockets as long as you have enough space. Up graded to a full set of 1/2 drive and breaker bars, used the right tool for the job and things went so much better. I still used impact sockets on ratchets more than chrome.

[johnlong]

I got the 1/2 drive impacts and the profiling is so nice, I chuck them to a ratchet as much as I do an impact gun. My chromes are pretty much retired.

[portlandtwowheels]

Wow. You take great care of your tools. They look really good for being so used. I liked your review.

[itsajeepthing]

I have a couple of ratchets, the snap ring plier set, and 1/2" impacts. I have been super happy with them so far.

[rcud]

I love my long wrenches! I have a couple different sets of longer wrenches and enjoy using them. But I also have a nice set of SK's that are not long and they work well too.

[Supra_Mickey]

I have the anti-slip grip wrenches and I love them

[ericpleasant]

In defense of the extra-long combination wrenches..

All of the other wrenches you can purchase in-store are shorter than these, no matter where you go. As an alignment technician, these extra long wrenches were exactly what I needed and ultimately saved me hundreds of dollars because the only other options were Snap-On or Matco.

[JimmyMakingitwork]

I remember when my tools looked this nice, memories. Nice set up!

[ollieoxy]

I am a heavy duty diesel mechanic and I abuse my tools daily, I bought the Icon impact 3/8 and 1/2 swivel socket sets, definitely recommend getting those and something worth having a harbor freight close by to warranty it out if needed, I did buy the 3/8 flex head icon ratchet, it’s ok, I own the Pittsburg pro flex head ratchets as well, I feel those are better than the icon ones, but I invested in the gearwrench comfort grip locking flex head ratchets, love those, I feel like the Icon has room to grow, but the convenience of HarborFreight is worth it too me

[rafaelquinones]

I bought the Icon wrench set, don’t have any issues. I also have a complete Tekton socket set and a Icon ratchet. The Tekton ratchet I dropped and the guts came flying out. Received rebuilt kit and rebuilt no issues after. I work on the Pump repair field so everyday is a hard day and a torture test on my tools. I think I can live with the Icons / Tekton tools rather than the extra money for the Snap-on stuff. Have some Snap-on stuff but can see the logic of spending 4 time the money for a tool that will perform as well. Have to wait for Fridays for the truck to come by or swing by HF and replace the stuff. The Tekton took 2 days to receive the replacement so not bad. I would say if you are starting try the Icon or Tekton. The Icon are built in Taiwan as are the Tekton (some are US made)

[billyhoglock]

Thanks for the review. I tried one love it and thinking about getting the impact

[stevenhorsefield]

I've been getting a lot of these tools lately. Replacing my old stuff and making some to go tool packs for my vehicles.
