It's a sweet bargain at the $7 I paid for it, and still a good deal at double that (Amazon's price at time of this writing).
However, there's one issue with mine right out of the box: The ratchet mechanism jams at a specific point in its travel. It doesn't slip, it just sticks and requires some coaxing to make it continue rotating past this point.
There is obviously some shoddy machining work (and QC) with mine.
The fit of both ends to fasteners is good, so I still consider this a steal at $7 -- I would be much more upset about the pawl/teeth hanging up had I paid anywhere near MSRP for this model.
I won't ding a star for the minor flaw, since the wrench hopefully won't slip at this point under tension/torque and it may break-in (smooth out) with use.
If the mechanism gives me any trouble in actual use, I'll update this review accordingly.
