In 1962 I bought a Craftsman 40 piece SAE mechanic’s tool kit with tool box. Don’t remember what I paid. Still have all the tools.
Had to replace a 3/4” socket that broke when I used it with an impact wrench to remove car lug nuts. Wasn’t designed to work with an impact wrench.
Sears replaced it no charge. I can still remember the salesman saying, “Go over there and pick you out another one.”
We had all Craftsman tools on the farm. We bought them because they were good and the warranty.
Working on a recalcitrant threshing machine one day I had to use a cheater bar. Took a 3/4” craftsman wrench, slipped a 6’ length of pipe over it and started pulling. The wrench broke.
Took it to Sears and they replaced it without question.
