      Hey OP I want a handy too!

    Great screwdriver have one currently 2 years old used daily very durable only complaint would be plastic grip frays when worn

    • +3

      Funny how you followed "very durable" with an example of poor durability.

    Just picked up one of each. Moving house soon - should make the inevitable flat pack assembly nightmare a little easier.

    No sale tags on the shelves but they scanned at the lower prices at the register.

    Note that this one with the pistol grip is right next to the longer one on the shelf and looks almost identical - I picked up the wrong one at first.

      For many tasks you're better off with a cheap powered screwdriver or a low powered electric drill w/ speed control.

      But at $16 its still nice to have for very small jobs.

        I would go further, and say that if you are doing any serious screwing you dont really want a big heavy screwdriver with an oversized handle as it takes more effort to use and is slower. On top of that most screws I have used aren't tight enough to be able to use the ratchet effectively, which kinda makes me think these are really niche products that you either buy because you only have space for an all in one, or for those odd occasions where a ratchet os useful. I dont have these screwdrivers but I have a couple of other ratcheting ones and they are almost never the preferred choice, at least for me

          These can lock so they behave like a regular screwdriver. Yes they are bulkier but that is for the bit on command convenience. Larger handles are easier to use but could be marginally slower.

    • Why one of each when one set has all the pieces the ither set has?

  • -1

    Aren't these the regular prices?

    • +4

      Tags on the shelf were $25 and $20ish. (Can’t remember exactly)

  • Do the tips go inside?

    • +6

      That’s what she said.

      And yes. Both have a screw in bit at the base to hold the bits. The bigger one also has a wall mount if that’s more your style of bit holding.

      • +1

        Does this fit all 12 supplied bits on the larger one?

        edit: looks like it holds 6

        • +2

          All 12 fit. They go end to end in the 6 slots in the holder

          • +1

            @Cucumber123: perfect for work then to have all the common tips handy.

            I wonder if the right angle one is the same.

  • Hi All,
    Just a bit new to tools/screwdriver and planning to buy a good set for home use - was comparing this with Stanley 49 Piece Screwdriver Set @ Bunnings (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/410040).
    Can I please request some guidance on which one to go for.
    Thanks in advance.
    :-)

      Grab that kit, great screwdriver it is but the kit will last longer

      • Thanks Beewee97 :-)

      A lot of people will probably have that set. That's why I'm hesitant to buy this one - already heaps of various screwdriver sets and bits, including a powered one.
      The main appeal this has for me which is why I'm kinda tempted still is cos it sounds nicely portable; large single screwdriver size with 12 bits.

      • Thanks dufflover

    • +1

      Based on "Just a bit new" - Read the comments on that set, they are pretty good overall….fwiw IMO there are good points to both - ratchet is excellent for lotta screws to be done in the one job, saves that tired wrist feeling but a non ratchet means you can feel comfortable with applying more pressure as they always feel more solid (note always be mindful of over-tightening which can wreck the screw/material being worked on)…as an aside an inexpensive (not "cheap")drill with screwing facility is a great investment for lotta screws jobs.

      Finally one of the ways prices are cut is to use "softer" metal…..that's why "cheap" is "tread warily" as "soft" metals just cause frustration.

      • Thanks havebeerbelywillsumo .
        Take a bow. :-)

          Thanks for saying that, really hate it when someone says "new to this", so you make an effort to reply but then hear nothing back at all.

          IMO "tools" is one area where experience counts…it is a real pleasure to use something decent AND (later) think "I bought this 20 years ago and it's still handy, sure it cost a bit at the time but now…."what a great move that was".

      I would definitely recommend you start of with a decent screwdriver set as opposed to this deal.

      The reason i suggest a good set first is because you will innevitably come accross screws that are inset in a casing that the head of this ratcheting screwdriver, the part that the 'bits' slot in to, is enlarged and cannot fit into those tight spaces.

      I have had my set for over 15 years and have come accross this scenario countless times that ratcheting one would not have worked.

      You also get varying lengths in a set which does come in handy. Sometimes you need the reach of a long driver and sometimes a stubby for tight spaces.

      A good basic (flat head) screwdriver can also be handy for prying, leveraging, banging with a hammer for various reasons etc

      This ratcheting screwdriver may be handy in addition to a good basic set.

    Thanks OP

  • I grabbed the last $16.85 at Smithfield. Father’s Day pressie for me sorted - better than getting a pair of socks

  • found out Kincrome brand 13 in 1 ratchet cheaper, bought that one instead of this

  • I can without a doubt say that this is the worst screw driver I have ever used.
    Save your money.
    I am still trying to figure out why they didn't stick with their old design.
