I've broken at least 3 craftsman ratchets, I have yet to break any of my snap on ones. I've only broken one snap on socket, and that was because I abused the ever loving crap out of it. I've broken more craftsman impact sockets (3) than I have snap on non impact sockets. and I do sometimes use non impact sockets on the gun. in my experience, craftsman just doesn't work out for me. if it works for you, great. I'm sure you'll save a ton of money on tools over what I spend. but after three years of doing this I cant tell you how many times I've been grateful to be rid of a lot of my craftsman stuff.

The Craftsman pro series with the higly polished wrenches and a few other pro series items i think are on par with snap on.
