Review on 9Pcs Precision Hook Set with Magnetic Telescoping Tool Kit – Ideal for Automotive and Electronic Applications – Perfect Gasket Scraper, Hose Removal, Puller Hook Combo by Jim Diaz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Overall very impressed

They are way better than I expected for $20. I was expecting junk plastic moldings and cheap/weak metal. But no. The plastic molding is very nice, very soft and has held up pretty well so far. The metal is well formed, I don't see any scratches or manufacturing defects. The magnetic telescope tool is pretty good too. I thought it was just a cheap throw, but then again, it's not. It's thicker and stronger than it appears in the photos. When fully extended it is still very solid, nothing wobbles, there is even a little light at the end. But I don't like the activation mechanism. In fact, this is a cap that fully illuminates when unscrewed. To turn it off you have to unscrew it a bit and that leaves it pretty loose. But that's not such a big issue to deduct a star. The lockpicking tools themselves are what I really bought this for and I don't think $20 is much better than that.

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • poorly thought out
