Review on GearWrench 8940 Piece Ratcheting Screwdriver by Andrew Kamkoff

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good but not like their GearDriver product

I think the quality and functionality of this product is very good value for money. It has a decent ratchet, the teeth aren't too coarse at 45 teeth per revolution, but my Cobalt has a finer stroke than this. The grip on the handle is very good and everything works well. But please don't: it's MASSIVE. This is the biggest ratchet screwdriver I've ever seen. It is 11 inches long not including the bit at the end. I expect it will be awkward in many situations or for smaller hands. This is NOT the same screwdriver as other GearDriver products. The bit holder part (chromed shank) does not come out of the handle, so the shorter part or key shank can be swapped out. This is why you get stuck with such a great length. So this is a good product, like others at this price point, just be aware of the issues above. I am returning mine due to the stock not being interchangeable and its sheer size.

Pros
  • Ratcheting, reverse ratcheting and non-ratcheting handle functions for more versatility
