I think the only problem with the open end/box end ratcheting wrenches is if you try to use them on a fastener that is real tight or put too much torque trying to tighten one. I have had mine for quite some time without any issues. The key is use them within their limits, if it takes a lot of force to break something loose use the open end then use the boxend/ratchet to remove it.
