cheap ones are likely to break again,

that bolt does not gradually loosen, it all of a sudden SNAPS loose, once it made a noise so loud it scared the crap outta me, i thought i broke a tool for sure, but nope, it was the sound of the bolt snapping loose,

so you probably have not even scratched the surface,

on a side note, i would suggest to wear safety goggles in case the socket does snap

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one
