Value Set but you will quickly outgrow it [Posted on 2000-07-23]
I do a lot of machine shop work therefore I have used many kinds of screw drivers. This set is value priced (ie. cheaper). For occasional home use (ie. once every 6 months or so), it is ok. If you use screw drivers more frequently than this, I suggest you look else where. First, the grips/handles are not good when applying lots of torque. They are made of smooth plastic and doesn't provide a lot of friction. I often found my hands slipping when applying lots of force. Second, the shafts are round, not rectangular/square, which means when the application is really tough, you cannot use a wrench as auxilliary handle for more torque. Thirdly, the screw drivers wear out fast. Especially the phillips (+ shaped). But I am sort of rough on tools, so the above opinions may not apply to you.

Weak... [Posted on 2002-02-20]
These are very weak quality screwdrivers. You may expect a quality product from a company like Stanley but, thats not what you will receive. These drivers will bend like a gymnist with the slightest pressure.
