Love the fact these are made in the USA! Rails are nice, stickers are absolute garbage. They peeled up overnight. I tried cleaning the clip and a new label but still they don't stick. If you care about the ID markings PASS on this. If you don't care about the id markings and want a rail that you can lock your sockets on these are good. Can be hard to get socket off if hands are greasy. If you have limited space and sockets less than the rail's width then the rails only are a better option than the Socket Boss tray. I tried 6 rails in 3 2 rail trays and it took 11" of width but if I set the rails next to each other it was only 7" 2 3 rails trays would have been better but still more than 7"

These socket organizers are a bit pricey for plastic trays but they are worth it. The trays are plastic and the male socket holders are also plastic. The twist to lock feature is nice for when I have to take my sockets out of the tool chest for working on things outside of the garage.If you are not abusing these trays, they should last a long time. Of all the trays that I have used for socket organizing, these are by far the best.

I've gone through several types of socket organizers. Pegs and pre-labeling require exact socket sizes, magnetic rails are too expensive, standard metal snap rails don't hold, etc. These are amazing! They hold the sockets securely, and I love the versatility and sticker labels to customize the rails for my exact needs. The double and triple rail plates make them very sturdy in a drawer so even large, heavy, impact sockets stand straight up without falling over. If the clips wear out some day, Ernst sells packs of clips so you don't have to replace the entire rail. Even the price is incredible compared to competitors. I really can't say enough good things about it. This is one of the best products I've ever bought am I'm definitely buying more.

For almost $50 I expected way higher quality. Plastic is super brittle, can already tell the socket nubs will be worn down and loose in a couple weeks. This is worth more like $20 tops.Spend your money elsewhere. Quality doesn't reflect the price.

Necesitaba llevar algunos dados en una caja junto con otras herramientas y evitar cargarlos por aparte en sus estuches. Con este sujetador lo logré! Ahorrándome espacio y manteniendo los dados en orden. El sujetador es de plástico, sujeta bien los dados y puede resistir bastante tiempo si literalmente no se 'arroja' después de cada uso a la caja de herramientas. Viene con estampillas para rotular las medidas. Los recomiendo.

I bought both the SAE red and metric blue sets.I have both shallow and deep 1/2 impact socket sets that are the Husky brand that come in the 11 piece sets.I wanted something that could hold these perfectly without extra rail space. These work perfectly. Having two rails on one piece is great for keeping the shallow and deep together.Unfortunately these only fit on the top drawer of my Husky tool box. I just rearranged my box a bit and we are good to go.Stickers aren’t very sticky. Some started to come off as I was putting them on. A single kit comes with plenty in case I need extra.Hard to see the stickers when they are in the drawer. Easy to see when a socket is removed.The trays are nice and wide and don’t fall over when moving the drawer.All in all a great value. I have other Ernst organizers as well so I was pleased to see this product line

Lets start with price. No matter you choice there is a ton of value. For what is included it is very hard to find anything better.The lock and slide feature is flawless. Even with the rails loaded it is easy to remove and replace it. If you do not like the placement of a rail. You can just swap rails to a new location.Customization. There are so many options and even some color choices. You can choose blue, red, Hig Vis. Pretty much any combination of them. Having the option to choose 3 or 2 rail in 13 or 19 inch is amazing. You can even opt to have just the rails alone. Do not have every socket in a set or maybe have sizes that are not common. This is no problem for this set. Remove or slide the locking pegs. Want the rail to have 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 no worries you can do that. There are stickers to label everything once you determine what works best for you.Now for the negatives. As with anything nothing is perfect. With all the customization to make this the way that you want it comes at a cost. That cost is not really in actual dollars. Because the price is very reasonable. The real cost is your time. The options are so endless that you will spend what feel like eternity trying to determine what is best for you. Even after hours of tinkering you will find another layout that you would prefer. Great you have a layout and general idea how you will use everything. Now it is time to label. They provide a great deal of little tiny stickers to identify every torx, socket ect... That you own and have place in this. Well lets just say if you are like me. You question if you really need all these sockets ( THE ANSWER IS YES). Plan for a project because it truly is.To sum it up. Yes this is a very tedious project and very time consuming. However the outcome is worth every second that you spend on it. I am have not completely made it 100 percent yet. But the outcome so far is amazing. Would I recommend this to a friend? Absolutely. Even an enemy because I know they will be busy for sometime. Would I purchase again? Already planning on it. I want to thank you for taking the time to read this. Take care and have a great day.

The good:They work exactly as described. The sockets twist-lock and stay put. And the socket rails clip securely to the base. And they include plenty of stickers to mark socket sizes on the clips. (metric, SAE and torx)The rails also have notches that keep the socket clips where you put them. Nice touch.The bad:When the socket rails are clipped in the base, it's too tall for the 1/4 socket drawer of my tool box. Minor inconvenience, I leave the rails off the base when in the drawer.Also- it's plastic. And even though it feels pretty tough, I can see where the socket clips on frequently used sockets will eventually wear out. (I'm looking at you, 10mm).Summary:Great for home use, or for a car tool box, because they stay put.And I bought the matching 3/8 socket rails from them after I saw the quality of the 1/4 rails. That should tell you a lot about my opinion of them.
