Good set of bits, fits in pocket

It has most of the bits you need to work with most electronics like laptops etc. I would have liked the handle to have a ratchet, but the rest is really good. Pretty.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Volume

Plastic screwdriver

I didn't like the plastic screwdriver. I thought it was metal. The plastic parts make this product cheap. I can pay more money for heavier metal. I think that's very important.

Pros
  • A lot of positive emotions
Cons
  • unreliable

Just what I need, nothing I don't need

My job involves disassembling laptops. I've worn out more than a bit of a Cheep T5. I feel a little difference in this set from others I have. Only has the bits I need for laptops and is pocket sized.

Pros
  • High marks for support and longevity from testers
Cons
  • Not bad

Great tool kit for on the go

I love this little thing. A few years ago I already had a working iFixit starter kit, but I wanted something small that I could take with me on trips and work with me. This little kit does just that and does it well.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • dim

Decent inexpensive kit.

I will not lie, I feel a little deceived. When I bought this set, like other customers, I expected that the screwdriver would have the same aluminum handle as the Mako and Manta sets, but it's plastic with a textured silicone rubber finish. I understand that for $15 you can expect a lot to get a good aluminum driver, but the store page isn't very specific on materials. Also, judging by the photos, the Moray and Essential Electronics kits include a plastic driver. Still, this is iFixit and theyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Secret

IFIXIT is the best.

TL;DR: Another great product. Small, light, cheap and high quality from ifixit. They did a great job making a small, portable, and affordable kit. The driver itself is plastic, but that doesn't bother me as it's pretty cheap for an ifixit product. It does its job well and is very comfortable. The bits are pretty standard for quick everyday repairs on a piece of equipment. excellent work. This is definitely a great gift to leave for someone who doesn't have a screwdriver. It will handle mostโ€ฆ

  • Tools and Housewares

Very handy little set

I love the ifixit sets, one of which is the minnow. It indeed comes with a good selection of the most useful bits. As always, the lid gives you a place to sort tiny screws while you work with the device, and it's convenient to store as it's held in place with magnets. The quality is always top notch, I believe if you pay a little more you get a much better quality and you only have to buy it once. As other reviewers have pointed out, the disc is composite, but don't worry about the quality, and

  • Safety

Leaves a lot to be desired!

Let's start with the first, a plastic screwdriver. It's really great and I have no doubt it has something to do with durability. The beats are good. I've bought several different kits from different brands and they're on par with the quality of electronic kits (although they're nowhere near the quality of professional parts from places like Milwaukee, DeWalt, etc., but they don't make them, so I digress). .) The case is pretty neat and has magnets in it, but the foam inside probably won't lastโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Screwdriver Sets
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Efficient and portable screwdriver set!

Last year I used the iFixit Essentials Toolkit to fix and update various devices and was incredibly pleased with the quality and durability of its components. It served me so well that as soon as I heard about iFixit Minnow, the pocket version of their modular screwdriver, I got my hands on it. with four Philips bits and three flat-head bits, six different Torx security bits, two tri-point screws and two pentalobe screws for opening phones and game consoles, and a stand for other phone-relatedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Screwdriver and Wrench
Cons
  • Crumpled
