    The driver an the bits are great. The pry tools are useless. I recommend the other tool options and a set of better pry tools sold separately. The tray that covers the top is great for holding and separating very small screws. And it looks good when it's closed up sitting on my desk/workbench.

    Best purchase I've made in a while. Really helps with doing things like fixing drift on controllers b/c they are incredibly difficult to open without these tools. They also make it so you don't damage the item you are opening.

    I replaced the shell on a steamdeck with this kit. The tools are just fantastic and the case they come in to keep things organized is also great. My project went very smoothly because of this.

    This toolkit is great. It has everything you need for basic maintenance of your PC or even for bigger jobs like building a new one. Works well for other things as well that require smaller tools. Used it to take apart my Xbox remote and fix the joystick.

    I needed a toolkit to work on my computer, and this starter set was perfect. I was able to pick it up the same day, which really saved me during a time-sensitive repair. The kit comes with everything I needed — precision bits, spudgers, tweezers, suction cup, and prying tools — all organized in a clean, compact case. Every tool felt high quality, and it made opening my PC and working inside it way easier and safer. Definitely worth it for anyone doing electronics or computer work!
