Review: A great tool for both those who know what they're doing and for those who know what they should be doing, but don't want to. - I have always been a firm believer that it's best to do things in the most impractical way possible. If something COULD theoretically be pulled away from the wall by no means does that mean it SHOULD. By the time you factor in all the stuff that would doubtless fall off and then land down the back and all the cables that would get wrenched out and someone would complain about what I did to the floor... No, it makes more sense to jam a screwdriver round the back, scrabble about blindly leaving black rubber streaks all over the wall, stripping the head of the screw and eventually slipping and punching the wall so hard you either leave a dent or a bloodstain... If that sounds familiar... Someone made a screwdriver for us... Well, technically it's not really for us... technically it's for people who have no other choice whilst working on engines or in places you genuinely can't move things but it works AMAZINGLY for people too lazy to actually move things too. It even works for those people who compromise by tilting furniture forwards a bit. It really is a unique item and one that is incredibly well made... which just about justifies the price that is not all that much less that I paid for a set of Wera screwdrivers not that long ago. The ratchet, elegantly reversible by just swapping the bit from one side to the other, and the fact that you can put a lot of strength through something so small also help justify it. You may well still clench your teeth a little bit but the first time it helps you do a job you couldn't have done with any other tool or without having to exert a great deal more effort you'll feel it was worth it. I've given a couple as gifts now and they've gone down well despite my initial fears that people might just think I gave them some tat and chuck it in the back of a drawer. Even beyond its usefulness for both legitimately reaching inaccessible spaces and being lazy it also can serve as an easy pocket screwdriver if you're the kind of person who either feels confident they'll mainly encounter phillips bits or quite sensibly doesn't mind a few regular hexbits sloshing around in the pocket. The closest I can get to nitpicking is sometimes a bit of kitchen roll or similar is needed to grip the bit to pull it out but that's not surprising as I keep one of my hands in a glove full of moisturiser at all times when working to keep it soft for brushing my wife's cheek and the other in a glove full of moisturiser at all times to keep it soft for brushing my cat's cheek. Other than that the ratchet could be a little more sensitive but I guess I will trade sensitivity for it not breaking which I guess could be a risk with something this size. Nitpicking aside, I do love this screwdriver, it's as if someone looked at me, took pity on me, and found a way to stop me taking responsibility for my actions for a few more years.
Review: Super quality item - Small and mighty, very well made and will get those jobs in tight corners done.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super quality item
*by S***N on 2 May 2026*

Small and mighty, very well made and will get those jobs in tight corners done.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, but ratchet could be finer.
*by B***E on 31 December 2023*

Useful, but if the ratchet was finer would be more usable in tight places.
