If you're a pragmatist like me, and the price tag is very attractive to you as well- STAY AWAY FROM THIS!
Alright, where do I even start?
I think, like most others that end up on this page, I was simply looking for a basic toolkit that did not break the bank.
I needed a few basic tools- measuring tape, hammer, scissors, different screwdrivers, and a box-cutter. This toolkit had all of them, plus a few more minor utilities. And for the price-tag, I figured it would be good enough.
I did not need a measuring tape that was accurate to the nanometer. I did not need a hammer whose handle was perfectly sculpted to the average human hand. I just needed to get my few errands done. This seemed like it.
Fast forward a couple weeks. Measuring tape gets stuck on its very first use and has been lying on the floor waiting for me to figure a way to push the 3.something feet of tape back into the container. Box-cutter's thumb area (the part that clicks the blade into place) gets bent inwards after only a few light uses, leaving it in a state that no longer clicks into place. The cap over the scissors' pivot (the "hubcap") falls off simply from opening/closing the box. I'm concerned about even trying the other tools in this box now.
I would return this if I could, but unfortunately, I'm past Amazon's return window.
This was a total waste of money.
