In many ways, this set is more than what I need. I would say it compares favorably to similar products with aluminum presentation cases, despite its lower price range. It also stands out compared to similarly priced sets of individual tools. The tools shown are of reasonably good quality. The only problem was that there was that some of the tools needed a bit of cleaning up from manufacturing marks.
The most common tools are well made, and the various edges of the spatula are reminiscent of a multi-tool with sharp and serrated edges, as well as a bottle opener. The knife and tongs are of reasonable quality.
The case is typical of many these days with an aluminum appearance, only to my surprise it's real aluminum. For the price, that's more than I expected. The idea of a presentation case at all was more than I really needed. Each tool has an elastic loop to support it at one end and a Velcro strap at the other, so it's not hard to keep things organized. Then again, you will need to have free hands, and stretch the loop out for each tool, so if you are on the lazy side, this set will be a bit more work than just leaving things hanging. Then again, each major tool has a loop for that, so you can use or ignore the case.
The individual knives and corn holders are also of reasonably good quality. Although the brush and grill brush are also well made, they are consumable type items that should last a season at most, as would competing brands. Both have easily removable ends, and I was disappointed that I can't find replacement parts for them. For a set that goes in a display case, it would be nice to still have matching pieces after a season.
Overall, I got a high end set for the price I expected to pay for a more moderate set of quality individual tools without a case.

This item looks great and many of the pieces are very nice and of good enough quality for its use. However, I found that the items I use the most, the grill fork, tongs and spatula, were made of steel too thin and they bent too easily. Specifically I was using items to flip over a rack of ribs and they bent under the stress. I returned this item.Best Deals for Chefs Kitchen Outdoors - 20 Piece Barbecue Set
This is a pretty good set for the price. We aren't planning to use the steak knives because we have another set of much higher quality, but the other utensils are perfect for our grill. We haven't had any problems with the steel or any loose parts. The case is a little cheaply made, but it's just a case, so I'm not too worried about that.Honest reviews on Chefs Kitchen Outdoors - 20 Piece Barbecue Set
