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.

Ever since I arrived at that point in my life where i can afford it i usually go the other way round and by the professional tools, assuming they last me ages since they are made for heavy duty and don’t see that much action.
So far my wager is working out for me. Been ages since new stuff broke or wore down to a point were it needs replacing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The ones I’ve needed to replace are usually stuff that was junk to begin with. I can’t even remember the last time something actually broke or wore out on me. Cheap doesn’t automatically mean bad quality. I’ve got cheap tools still in use that I bought while I was in trade school, and I use this stuff for a living. If I buy a cheap 150-piece socket set, for example, and the ratchet and a few of the most commonly used sockets need to be replaced with premium quality ones after five years, it’ll still be cheaper than buying the name-brand set. I don’t need a Snap-on 12mm socket.
