Great value. Very well made nice case to keep it all together.
A very nice compact case with a comprehensive set of Phillips, Torx, Hex, and Slot blades in micro sizes which are perfect for taking most electronics apart. The case is very compact 90mm x 140mm x 25mm thick which is perfect for keeping in my compact tool bag. I love the magnetic closing and the use of proper hinge as these often break off after only a few uses.

Very useful for emergency glasses repair...
Very useful for emergency glasses repair... one of the tiny screw heads was worn out/stripped but with a bit of WD40, magnifying glasses, patience and of course the screwdriver set, I managed to remove it.

Not bad for PRC made tools
Nicely presented packaging which is part of the cost but of no real use. The tool kit itself though is very good. Knocked 1 star off for being made in PRC.

A useful precision screwdriver set.
Unless you regular repair devices such as mobile phones, tablets etc, you probably won’t use this set very often. That said, it’s a handy box of tools to have on standby - use them a handful of times and they’ll possibly pay for themselves in saved repair bills. I’ve actually used these tools a few times this past week. I needed a Torx bit to take the back off a coffee machine in order to access (and replace) a rubber seal - the seal cost me £4, whereas a replacement machine would have set me back nearly £80! I also used one of the flat-blade screwdriver bits to tighten the hinge screws on my wife’s reading glasses.I do like that the bits have been made from high quality hardened steel, and that they are magnetic - so each one holds securely within the chuck of the driver handle. By the way, each bit is clearly and usefully marked up with its designated size (see my photo). I would have preferred a metal carry case, but in all fairness, the plastic one supplied is robust with edges that are nicely rounded off, and has a lid which snaps securely shut on its magnetic closure. At the time of my review, the cost of this toolkit was £29.99, which I think is overpriced. However, if you see this kit for a few quid less, then I would recommend you treat yourself to one, because there will definitely come a time when you’ll need one of those bits……

Nice, though pricey, precision screwdriver set
At approaching £30 this precision screwdriver set is relatively expensive when compared with similar products. When you consider there are only 21 precision bits (plus one larger bit) the choice might appear limited but it does cover the most commonly found on computers and phones (and presumably glasses, but I've not checked these). The individual bits are easy to remove from the case and mount in the handle. There's a limited amount of 'play' once they're mounted, but in use they are held firmly and work well.The handle has a rotating top, onto which you place your index finger, enabling the knurled (easy to grip) handle to be turned whilst keeping precise pressure vertically on the screw. Rotation was smooth and the handle is a good size, not too big or small.The design of the bits is slightly unusual, with a much longer shaft than is seen in many precision screwdriver sets. This has the advantage that there is less in your line of sight when working in confined spaces. I certainly found it easy to use when disemboweling a malfunctioning NAS box to retrieve the hard drive.I've docked two stars for three reasons.Firstly, the price, as mentioned above.Secondly, the bits are only labelled - and then in very small writing - on the shaft of the bit, not in the box. This can make choosing and identifying the correct bit more time consuming. Oddly iLabPro sell several other precision screwdriver sets in which the case does carry the labels for the bits. It's therefore not clear why they thing it's not needed here.Finally, although the box/case is nice quality and held closed with four small magnets, it doesn't appear to open out and lay perfectly flat (at least the one I received didn't). The lid remains at a slight angle. This is irritating as it makes it slightly less convenient to lay out the small screws there while working - they tend to roll a little.Notwithstanding these points, the screwdriver set is well made and works well. If it has the bits you need (remember, no spudgers or tweezers or the like in this set) then it will serve you well.

Good basic set, nice case, why so expensive???
Most electronic and even electric items are getting smaller and smaller. Obviously the same goes for screws used to hold them together. These precision screwdriver sets are slowly becoming a necessity.Ilabpro is not a one-time item business. They specialize in the precise electrical tools area. This set is a fairly small and neat one. It consists of a good quality driver with magnetic mount and ball bearing end cap, a plastic but solid case with magnetic lock, and a set of 23 driver bits.Everything is good quality, nicely presented and easily accessible. The shock resistant S2 steel bits, with good hardness rating and magnetic ends, are more than satisfying to work with. They include the popular ends in micro-sizes.Why 3 stars then? Because I have no idea why this set is costing £30. It's really expensive compared with both the competition as well as their own, larger sets! From the description it doesn't even look like they are worse quality…But some cost half the price, at the same time offering way more bits, additional drivers or other handy electrical tools. All of them have nice and solid plastic cases. I'm completely puzzled…It's not a bad set. It's just a bad price for no apparent reason. One of the reviewers also criticized it. Very often things look quality until you realize there are other, better or/and cheaper alternatives. I can't give this set more than 3 stars. It's not overpriced - it's ridiculously priced.Thank you for reading my review. I hope you found it helpful.
