OK, so the case itself is pretty nice, and holds everything in well. The slide hammer itself is junk, either too short a throw, or too light, or some combination of both? And the Collets are a mixed bag, half of them are machined poorly, one in particular was not threaded all the way so stripped some of the thread, and for some reason some don't like to spread uniformly, so getting them tucked in just so is near impossible. The biggest issue is the sizing- while it is advertised as "effectively removes tight and stuck parts ranging from 1/4 to 2-1/3 inches", the truth is there are gaps between the pieces that are included. For instance, one collet might expand to 1", and the next size up starts at 1", so that makes getting a bearing out that has an inside diameter of .99" impossible, because the collet that expands to 1" doesn't have enough purchase (.01" isn't enough), and the next size collet that starts at 1" won't fit through the inside diameter of the bearing. That actually became enough of an issue to the point where I could only remove about 2/3 of the bushings in the project I had, even though it was advertised otherwise. For a single bearing, or maybe a few different sizes, this might work well, but for my project, it was effectively useless.
