My dad bought the cheap 3/4" set from Harbor Freight and the sockets worked pretty good, but the wratchet broke in a couple of months as did the breaker bar (still usable, but the pin holding the end on broke) that came with it. Then he bought a Craftsman 3/4" set. We have used it quite a bit without any trouble. We had a 6 foot pipe on the end of the wratchet trying to break a bolt loose which we finally did. Another option is to get a 3/4" breaker bar and pick up a reducer then just buy nice 1/2" sockets that you can use with either wratchet or breaker bar. Dad bought one to go from 1/2" to 3/4" so he could use the harbor freight 3/4" sockets on his impact gun. Of course we always torque them with the 3/4" wratchet.
