This bicycle repair kit I bought from LIDL comes with all the same tools as the famous Wera Tool-Check Plus but costs 11€ (i.imgur.com)

10x cheaper than the original. Likely not Wera quality but probably not 10x worse either. I've been quite happy with the other Parkside tools I've got.

As the saying goes, buy the cheapest tool you think you need, and if it breaks, buy the best. I've had some Lidl tools for a decade, and I used only a very small portion of them to the extent where they broke. And even among them, if I just wore them down (interchangeable tips for my screwdriver), I just ended buying the same.
