I was honestly kind of worried that these would be a waste of money because the price is cheap and normally tools that are cheap in price are also cheap in quality.
But not these!
These are great quality!
My husband has every tool and almost always buys craftsman tools since you can rely on the quality..and he says these are great
(these were not a gift so its not like hes saying they are great to make
me feel better.. lol... he bought these himself)!
They also come with sturdy handy case! HOMAK HT06801700 17-Piece Precision Pliers/Screwdriver Set
This product is cheaply made. I haven't used it all that much, so I don't know how long it is going to last, but I was disappointed in the quality. For example, I couldn't even get the case to zipper up.
Product details:
There are really only 16 pieces included. They count the case as the 17th piece.
There are 5 assorted pliers, and 11 screwdrivers. These include 2 flat-heads (3mm and 2.5mm), 2 Phillips(0 and 00), and 7 torx of various sizes. There is also a fabric case about the size of a thick notebook that has slots for each tool, and is supposed to fold up and zip shut.
UPDATE:
After using this set several times, I've realized that the quality of this set is terrible. The magnetic paint on the tips has started to chip off, and stubborn screws have completely twisted some of the heads. In addition, I've found that having only two size flatheads, and only two Phillips, really limits the uses of this set.
This is a very good set for those looking for a well-made set of precision pliers. While the bit selection is limited, the drivers are of fairly good quality, so you still have a good product here. The pliers are great though and perform quite well. I would go with another set if you are just looking for small torx and hex-type bits, but you would be hard pressed to find a better set of precision pliers for this price. That alone makes this set worthy of purchase.
My 2¢
Hi All,
Lately it would seem to me that screws are getting smaller and smaller. With that comes the need for smaller tools. Sure you can buy something for a few bucks and use it...but the quality is not there and you end up stripping screws....which we all know are a pain to get replaced. Case in point...new laptops with those mini screws....I stripped one that was a important screw and tried to find a replacement....much to my amazement it cost me $4.00 to replace one TINY screw. RIDICULOUS.
How can you avoid mishaps like mine....buy a good precision tool set that you can use.
I have purchased many precision tools and keep trying out different ones. This is the one SET that will finally make me happy and stay in my backpack/office 100% of the time. It is well built and includes most everything any electronics professional would need for simple repairs....small screws :-) - ETC.
Great price and great product.
5/5
I bought this kit to keep with me for on-the-go repairs, so I was more interested in having a number of decent quality tools in a case than anything else. In my shop I use a toolbox full of Swiss precision screwdrivers and pliers, and compared to them these were quite good. I would buy them again.
My main reason to purchase this product is because just recently I learned a lot about disassembling an iPhone. The other reason that i should keep it too is because i should have something handy and wide in selection if I start to pickup some other type of repair. This product suit my need, and it has everything that you should need to start your precision project. My only con about the product that it has a slight cheap plastic feel to it although it does not hinder its functionality.
The pliers are good and so are the screwdrivers. I was a little thrown off that there are only 2 phillips and 2 standard tip screwdrivers the rest are star bit and a few others. I haven't found a purpose for those yet.....I was expecting just different sized phillips and standards and maybe a few others but not 4 normal use and 8 that i don't know when I'll ever need. Case is great at keeping everything organized.
only the screw drivers in this set is useful to me. the quality of this set is very poor. there are excess metal every where, even on the edges of cutters. at first glance, you will notice that it's extremely low quality. to me, this set is a bad choice.
This set is not manufactured to quality standards. Two of the screwdrivers (a philips and a flathead) had shafts mounted off-center, leaving a devastating wobble in the screwdriver. I have not worked with the pliers or the torx drivers, but I won't get a chance to, either. These are going back.
My recommendation is to look for higher quality. I have enjoyed Wiha's precision tools like those linked below, and intend to pick up a set to replace this junk.

The tools are great. They are high quality. The case however, is a piece of crap. I received it damaged. The strap that holds the pliers down came undone on one side. I sowed it back down, only for the other side of the strap to come undone. I heard the same complaints from other reviewers. Disappointing. - Tool Set - Tool Sets - Pliers - Screwdriver Set'
