Good socket
Works as expected. The 16-notch design engages well. Only issue is it's a bit shallow, but it's fine for most BBs.

Not too bad
It gets the job done. The steel is decent, but I've seen better. The price is right, but I wish it had a bit more depth.

Great deal
I got this to replace a cheap socket that stripped. This one is much better quality and the fit is perfect. Highly recommend.

Works well
Had to use a breaker bar to remove a stubborn BB, and this socket held up without stripping. Good value for the price.

Not durable
The socket deformed after a few uses on a tight BB. Maybe it's not meant for heavy torque, but I expected better.
