Too bad there's not a buy-one-of-each option.

I wasn't impressed the last time when i got the skil multi tool. Poor quality and QC. Basically with this you get what you pay for and nothing more.

Those metric is what really makes it worth it. Metric 10 and 12 does everything.

I got one of these last time around...

The precision set has pretty much every bit you'll need for delicate electronics work save those Jatravartid triangle bits.

Works well, great deal for the money.

Are there any bits here compatible with tamper-resistant screws, such as those found in modern electronics (i.e. PS3, iPhone, Xbox, etc.)?

I bought these last time they were on sale and they are awesome. Just what you need to work on small electronics or complex devices. I couldn't believe the quality I got for the cost.

Got a couple of these last time. Love the precision screwdriver set - those tiny little bits come in very handy. Haven't had as much use for the ratcheting set, but it's nice to have it around. Best thing, though, is that these sets come with cases. No trying to find odd pieces floating in the junk drawer.
Gave some of these as stocking stuffers and they were much appreciated.

These look very similar to the cheapy set I bought called iWork. It has the exact same shape precision screwdriver handle, with extension and the bits have the same markings. It should be noted IF this is the same set that the T6 Torx bit is not the proper size, at least maybe mine slipped through QC, and neither was the PH00.

I ended up almost stripping a fastener using the T6 and had to find a different "higher quality" set.

I bought some of these last time. They are cheap and cheaply made, but they are decent. What I cannot believe is that amawoot has enough of these still lying around to dedicate another entire woot day to them. Somebody had to have lost a job over these things!

For the price or if you're a business owner and you do ANY work on vehicles it's an awesome deal. I'd buy 5+ sets if I could if I was still a business manager working on autos.

Ahh, figured it out. I didn't realize if I clicked on want 3, it would have individual drop-downs to pick.

For as many purchases as I've made, I sure don't know how to use this website.

Great for loosening already loose bolts and screws. Must have been inside the head of the CEO of this company to produce worthless trash. Stocking stuffers anyone?

do they still have precision?

The problem with socket set type screwdrivers like this precision set is that a lot of electronics have their screws recessed quite far into the case, and often the socket part will be too big to fit down the recess.

Even though I'm reading a lot of negatives the truth is that if you doing any custom mod-ing from a auto to an iphone you need these tools. They are great for cracking a iphone and preforming a repair.

Think about it, guys. Only the cheapest of cheap toolsets isn't worth 3.99. When I was in university my parents gave me a no-name screwdriver with six interchangeable heads and it lasted me throughout my college years. Grip wore down and the heads got stripped a little but it got the job done.

This is a solid buy.

Silly goose.

Sure there is:
I want 3
You'll get 3 drop down menus, just pick a different one on each.
I just did it myself.

I think if you press I want 3, it lets you choose so you can get 1 of each.

I bought 3 sets last time woot had the skil sets on. I used the precision set today and it works great. They are great for around the house or to have in the car. you can really never go wrong with an extra screwdriver set.

I bought these last time and I was quite happy with what I got. Don't expect them to last if you use them heavily every day, but for casual use or those random times, these are great.

Yes, there is. Add three to the cart and then select each kit in the dropdown.

I have the 1/4" socket wrench set that I got at the local Home Depot. It works well, and it's great to have the sockets on one side and screwdriver on the other.
