Marketplace
I walked into Bunnings to browse their specials and bought this kit to keep in the boot of the car.
I consider this to be a "niche" use-case, so hear me out.
To be honest, the quality of these tools is kind of embarrassing. As someone who often frequents the Knipex, Leatherman deals on here, I got a real chuckle when I opened the kit and saw some of the tools (it even has the obligatory cable ties to bring the tool count up). The pliers have a terrible feel/action opening and closing them, the driver handle is a cheap platic-y affair. The tools don't even fit in the little inner pouches as shown in the picture in the box. I'm not doing a great job selling this deal…. No wonder I don't work in marketing.
HOWEVER, if you are looking for a cheap, temporary kit to throw in the boot until you get around to cobbling together a decent kit, i.e. as a gap-filler for the time-being, then I guess this would work. That is the reason I got it, and why I called it a "niche" use-case. Once you are done getting yourself a proper tool kit, with some high quality tools, you can hand this down to your son or grandson as a slight upgrade to their toy tool set.
Can you get an equivalent or better set from the $2 shop or Aldi for less money? Probably. Is buying this a convenient way to fill the need of having some tools in your car right now? For me, the answer was yes.
Bunnings are targetting this for "the home". However, I don't think it's a great fit for the home as you'd probably want a better set to keep in the garage. This one did fit neatly in the little side compartment in the side of my car boot though.
Stock levels seemed to be ample at the Bunnings I went to.
There are several alternatives from SCA that are potentially better/cheaper (but I happened to be in Bunnings and it was an impulse buy, and Bunnings is more convenient to get to for me):
