I think that Craftsman wrenches are fine, the rough surface can be a pain to clean when done. The profesional series is better but more expencive. I also think Craftsman rust a lot easier, especially the plyers. I purchased some Craftsman tool sets for my boys for Christmas and they don't take care of them verry well, so some are getting rusty. They have the odd snap on wrench and they seem to be fine. The biggest issue I have with Craftsman tools is their screw drivers.. They are junk as far as I am concerned.. Sure Sears will replace them when you break them, but oce a weak I need to go to Sears with a fist full of screw drivers for them to replace. For one the phillips head screw drivers don't seem to grip the screws as well as the Snap On's do, but when they do and you are going after a rusted screw they break off. Leaving the tip right in the screw! I have Pitsburg brand screw drivers I purchased from Harbor Freight that perform better than that and those are supposed to be the bottom of the line tools...
