Yeah, the first time I used this set one of the gear mechanisms easily popped out of the wrench. I was so surprised to find such a light flimsy ratcheting system that almost seemed to be just lying there waiting to break. The flexing head is an idea that still needs a great deal of development in order to be effectively useful under demanding conditions. I can be useful if you have the patience and a hand steady enough to carefully turn the wrenches without disturbing the angle of the head; otherwise it will be a frustrating ordeal as the head will move out of place and will need re-adjusting with every swing you take. The Craftsman reversible ratcheting combination wrenches are an advisable alternative as they seem to be better built and have a lifetime guarantee that will be honored at any Sears. The only drawback being that they are considerably more expensive.
