    Got the PITTSBURGH PRO 1/4 in. Drive Teardrop Composite Ratchet about 4 month ago. Very happy so far. Does the job, lightweight, love the release button option, and less than $15 for this DIY.

    I just ordered the 3 piece set of Capri comfort grip ratchets this morning, based mostly on your comments about them. I'll probably pick up their long-handled versions soon, too.
    The Quinn ratchets are also on the list.

    Good stuff as always Jeff! You can definitely hear the difference from 72 tooth to 90 tooth. So I know you can feel the difference in back drag as well. You are correct on the quinn and gear wrench 90 tooth have same parts in them. Keep up the awesome work you do for us tool lovers buddy!! Also just heard SK is making alot more US stuff again seen the interview its on RUclips to that's great news for SK!! I pulled the trigger on the Capri sets long and regular so thanks for that review on those can't wait to get them!

    I think grip size is just as important as ratchet head size. There are times that having a smaller grip size could help you get into a tight spot. Thats why i have all types of size ratchets but when it comes to comfort grip ratchets I tend to grab ratchet handles that are a little bit on a thick side just for comfort wise

    I've got the Icon and Gearwrench, and I'm getting ready to order the Capri. I've got a lot of other tools from all three already, and Capri seems to be a good tool among the non-tool truck brands. I was almost a straight Gearwrench guy up until a couple of years ago. I really like Icon and Capri, but Capri has all their sizes available for individual sale, and the quality is very good.

As a Snappy fan, I can admit that there are other brands closing the gap n maybe even taking over. Koken z series are great. Tekton are awesome for the money and I like Capri tools but don't have any ratchets as I dont like chrome handles n waiting for flexhead comfort grip.

      I agree some what here. Snap on is quality and supports American jobs. But, having said that with taiwan manufacturers really stepping it up in quality there needs to be a reflection in pricing. I lost alot of snap on, US craftman, proto, etc in my house fire last year and after trying out some top tier taiwan tools I see no justification to buy tool truck brands anymore at 44 years old. Are their ratchets and wrenches amazing yep. Is it justifiable if just starting out or on the back end of a career nope. sockets are good but there are good options out there for cheaper maybe not better but it will get the job done. To me there's maybe a handful of tool truck items one would need for sure the rest can be had cheaper elsewhere

I am a fan of capries ratchets all though I don't own any of their soft grip ratchets yet because I kinda like hard handle ratchets so most of my ratchets are hard handle. I do have a few that are soft grip because I live in a area that gets cold in the winter and soft grip is a little better in the winter. I am going to purchase a long 1/4 drive ratchet and I was wondering witch grip you like better the VIM or the Capri.

      ​@@jefftovani5535 I like the tekton's rubber grips a lot for one reason they isolate from the cold ratchet very well.

    Every one of them is a copy of the Snap On. Snap On invented and patented the sealed head ratchet in the 1990's and they invented the soft grip in the 90's as well. The cheaper ratchets are made with Chrome Vanadium steel, which Snap On stopped using over 90 years ago.

      but what does the snap on really do any better than some of the others? If you can afford that kind of thing go for it but seriously if it does the same job with minimal difference can you really justify that price tag?

      If you're a professional mechanic they are worth it. It's not going to be worth it for the DIY guys. Some differences are it will last longer, in part due to the better steel it's made from. Snap On will be around to take care of any warranty issues. Many times I've seen Snap On warranty ratchets that are 50 years old. It's made in USA, which is important to some of us. I've had Taiwan made ratchets fail at the worst times under professional use. I don't use chinese or taiwan tools anymore unless there are no other options available. My point about the other ratchets being copies of the Snap On is that most don't know that Snap On has been the leader in innovation over the last 100 years. They will still be around down the road when these other tool companies are long gone. @@sambrown6975

    The comfort grip is nice but in the transmission world the fluid gets on them ii don't like the way it feels.

    • @jefftovani5535
      @jefftovani5535  9 месяцев назад +1

      In that situation your rite,lots of different fluids can destroy comfort grips!! not all my favorite ratchets are comfort grips!!! i have so many,always adding more as time goes on,check out my ratchet collection video!! thanks my friend!!

      Yep any trans work I always go to knurling, metal, or hard handle. It eats the soft grips up and fast
