Users like the included 3/8 in. ratchet for light automotive and assembly work, noting the handy LED and slim head. Common positives: low vibration, easy blade changes, and durable build. Neutral/negative themes: not intended for heavy demolition or large lumber; some wish for longer stroke length and faster ratchet speed; a few report the tool can heat up under continuous load.
