The 'Goldilocks of tool sets', enough tools for every basic homeowner task without being overwhelming, in a compact hard case. Good Housekeeping's top-tested pick for general-purpose hand tool kits.
Our experts called it the 'Goldilocks of tool sets', it includes everything needed for most basic tasks, yet also not large enough to be overwhelming or take up tons of storage. Testers particularly liked the quality of the 16-foot tape measure, which opens and retracts smoothly compared to the tape measures often found in cheaper sets.
