Useless and Overpriced Magnetic Setter

Based on my observations, this Industrial and Scientific tool is a waste of money. The so-called magnetic properties are weak and don't hold the screw securely. The adjustable feature is also pointless as it doesn't fit most screw sizes. The only good thing about this product is its compact size, which is not enough to justify its high price.

Pros
  • Compact size
Cons
  • Weak magnetic properties, poor adjustability

Installation of drywall screws in resilient rods.

I read the reviews and was hesitant to use this. Mainly because it's non-magnetic and apparently the quality isn't up to scratch. I'm also a weekend warrior when it comes to home projects. I'm not a profi. However, I think it's great. The quality seems consistent and it was very helpful to install the drywall screws through the plate and into the elastic rod/channel. So I am very happy with this tool. And it's a lot cheaper at Revain compared to Home Depot.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old

More of a gimmick. for drill parts and accessories

I returned it. I was doing a drywall project in my basement and didn't want to spend money on a special drill press. This thing worked well if you had a high speed drill. It was only good a small percentage of the time. This forced me to use a standard PH#2 bit to push the screws even further. It was also a frustrating task until I grabbed my "Hard Mark" drum beats. Doesn't matter. I don't know what it is, maybe a black coating but they really hold the screw. So much so that I brought this part

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
