I'm a big fan of their Professional (now Advanced) range of hand tools. I've got a set of their sockets, a couple of ratchet handles, a couple of breaker bars and an impact driver set, some of which are getting on for 20 years old and despite a lot of abuse over the years, they have never broken, and still work brilliantly. You get a no quibble lifetime warranty as well - if something breaks, you just take it back and they replace it. I've never had to do this, but I know people who have, and it really is as simple as that. And they are well priced. More expensive than the cheap Chinese rubbish you can buy on eBay and Amazon, but much more affordable than many of the big names.
The tool chests are nice as well. The roller bearing drawers on mine are still smooth after 10 years, and they are very solidly made.
As was mentioned above, I like going in our local Halfords shop while my wife is looking around the various hellish womens clothing shops nearby.
