Review on πŸ”§ Bondhus 3752 Extra Long 2.0mm Ball End Screwdriver with ProGuard Coating by Mark Ponnusamy

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Got it working for my limited use

This screwdriver seems very cheap. The shaft was slightly bent on first use and looked like it was about to break when I twisted it to remove the screws. It survived 8 screws that I had to remove and replace, but the entire time I used it I would sweat if it would break before I could finish my task. That being said, there were some other annoyances. First, the handle is a lot smaller than I thought it would be. There's not a lot of room to get a good grip, and its shape doesn't offer much leverage, especially considering it pivots about 12 inches from the screw. I ended up grabbing it with pliers to get more leverage. What I had was that the shaft wasn't magnetized, but I was able to magnetize it sufficiently by running a magnet along the shaft (thanks, science!). In order to insert a screw a foot away, it really needs to be magnetized to do so be practical. In the end it did the limited work it needed for a low price but if you need it for regular or long term use I would avoid it as I don't think it will last. high.

Pros
  • Length: 279mm
Cons
  • Some small things
