Review on Versatile and Durable Ratcheting Screwdriver with Adjustable Angle and Non-Slip Rubber Grip - Mars-Tool: Your Solution for Heavy-Duty Screw Driving by Andrew Young

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not recommended for professional use.

To the point. Here are my pros and cons of this product in no particular order.1. The first thing I noticed about this screwdriver is noticeable backlash when the screwdriver is working. You don't want to wiggle back and forth between the point of contact and your hand. It doesn't inspire confidence and feels like a branded dollar screwdriver.2. The cap on the end will come off when you apply palm force to the base of the screwdriver.3. Your bits are stored in a quick-load plastic case that slides back and forth in the handle, which is annoying. The plastic holder for the speed loader bits, which is housed inside the handle, is good value. I've only been using it for a day and have found that the bits fall out and eventually the holder has to be thrown away and the bits rattle in the handle. If the lid in your tool bag comes off, the bits will fall out. The ratchet knob slips out of position when I bump into it. It's a weak mechanism that caused me to reconfigure the direction and it's hard to tell which direction is set from the direction marker. The good doesn't outweigh the bad. 1. The handle is comfortable and non-slip.2. It is useful to tilt the end to get more torque for tightening or loosening.3. The size of the tool is compact. All in all, I do not recommend this tool for the professional DIYer. If you need it for short light work at home or office, it can come in handy. After a day of use, I throw this tool in the trash at home.
