Draper 43571 Expert Engineers Screwdriver Set, 16 Pieces , Blue

The steel used in the heads of these screwdrivers is invincible! The handles feel very good in my hand and the plastic is obviously high quality stuff as well as being very good looking. This is a large set that caters for every size of flat, philips and pozi that exist save for jeweler's sizes. They came in a sturdy carrying case but also have holes through the handles for hanging on a peg board on the wall. They cost a bit more that your average screwdriver set but these will last a lifetime or two if not more. For anyone thinking about buying them I highly recommend you go ahead and get them. You will never need to buy another set and you will be much happier using these than a cheaper set. An investment for a prosperous DIY/man cave future!Update: I have now used several of the screwdrivers on two big DIY jobs and as I expected when I tested them out of the box the heads are very good quality steel. No damage at all even after I used on on a broken screw head that was seized in place with rust. They fit very well into the SPAX screws that I have not feeling loose at all like some cheap screwdrivers do.

This is by far the best set of screwdrivers I've purchased. I've no doubt, if I don't lose them, that they'll be useable for decades.The larger flat heads are a bit comedy large, but useful for big jobs none the less. The rest of the flat heads and all the cross slots and pozidriv are all perfectly sized and I use them at least a couple of times a week, often much more. They're extremely comfortable to use with strong hard handles and ergonomic thumb hollows that really allow you to get the torque going. The hole in the top helps when you really need some torque as you can stick another driver through for extra leverage.I've had mine for over 6 months and despite regular use they still look new! Even the tips look almost perfect and I actually haven't rounded any screws since getting them which is something of a record for me. I store them in a vertical storage tool bag which might help with the condition as they don't lie in the bottom on a metal tin, but even so they seem to be extremely hard wearing.They actually remind me of the sort of screwdrivers you saw your Dad use and that kept going for 30 years. I'm glad to have found such a set in these years or planned obsolescence and hopefully I won't need to buy again for many many years.

Purchased this set to replace an older identical set which had been thoroughly abused by a family member so fully knew what to expect. Draper tools have improved in quality a great deal in my experience over time and being an expert set these are no exception. The metalwork in them is precise and sturdy, and well machined to fit screws correctly, something that is often missing from very cheap un-named brands. In addition the plastic handles are large enough to fell good in the hand and allow proper use when effort needs to be used to extract screws etc. There is also a small hexagon cross sectioned part of the shaft that allows the use of a spanner etc with the screw driver to increase turning force if needs be. The handles are made from colour coded plastic that is tough and not brittle so it can withstand being dropped etc. I am not sure if they can withstand being struck with a hammer though I keep this set for best and have another cheaper set of Draper screw drivers I use for the general work. You will notice how much easier difficult screws are when you use a quality screw driver like this, far less likely to mangle the screw or screwdriver or skin your knuckles. Would fully recommend these for home or work use, working in agriculture it is a bonus to have reasonably price tools because they inevitably get lost or destroyed by accident. I believe you can still order these individually if needs be from Draper to complete a set, too.

I like the quality of the metals I was using the on hard work and no scratch to any dismormation on the heads.The only attention point is that I can not use them with hammer as the handles are not build for this purpose.

Absolutely fabulous, good set of screw drivers you can ever own. Good quality and very stunning I didn’t want to use them when I opened it because they look nice but I guess I didn’t buy it to showcase it so I used them. The price is awesome for this type of screw drivers. I’m pleased with the purchase. Oh and the case is very well made it organises the set very well. Well done to Draper team. Highly recommend.

Bought screwdrivers on strength of reveiw rateings, I would like to give my veiw on this set of screwdrivers for anyone interested in this set.On first impression the moulded case is good with a hinge at the back of the case and also two hinged case shutters at the front a lot nicer than the standard bendy plastic type hinges that break after awhile through fatigue.Once opened the screwdrivers seem to be of good quality with good ergonomic handles a grey Matt finish to the shafts, magnetic tips and a wide range of sizes I gave 4 stars not 5 (why) I don't no what this set was designed for, was it for the trades men or the home diy or was it someone who designed it on a computer with no knowledge of tools, the cross slot and pz selection are spot on for sizes however my only gripe is the plain slot screwdrivers they have included the biggest screwdriver twice one at 200mm and the other 250mm, why didn't they just included one and then duplicate a smaller size that is used more often and maybe a bit longer for versatility.Because for the diy enthusiast the biggest screwdriver will probably not get used to often and to have two seems a bit of a waste (same).
