Let me tell you about those Craftsman tools. After many years as a mechanic trying to get by with the cheaper tools, I have used many Craftsman tools. Do not buy the 1/4in rachets, they break monthly. The screw drivers just plain suck, they bent way to easy(and not when used as a pry bar). Wrenches are very good and work every bit as well as the Big guys. The larger rachets are just fine, 1/2in are real good value. Craftsman tools are a good deal, just know that not all of there tools are the best, be careful.
