Milwaukee 48-22-2718 8 Piece Screwdriver Kit with Square

Love the magnetic heads

I’ve owned a few sets of these screwdrivers and they have their place. They’re not the best screwdrivers but for $25 on sale you can’t go wrong. I tend to use these when i don’t want to break my more expensive screwdrivers which means they see usage beyond what I’d expect them to hold up to. Overall you can’t go wrong with these.

I do wish Milwaukee would offer a wider variety of screwdrivers that are not just multi drivers. Would like to see some dedicated torx drivers

These are great. I bought them to have as an "extra" set in my garage toolbox next to my old USA-made acetate-handled set... I find myself reaching for these first every time. The handles give good grip, and I love that they're not round - keeps them from rolling around in my toolbox drawer. The magnetic tips are well-machined and fit well in their respective fastener sizes. The hex shank has come in handy more than I thought they would, and the large identification of the tip makes grabbing the right driver a lot easier. I wish they were USA-made, but such is the world we live in right now.

I'll start my review by stating that I am accustomed to quality screwdrivers. My previous set is a diamond tip screwdriver set. I discovered the Milwaukee screwdriver via their two-piece demolition set. Over time, I realized that whenever I needed a manual screwdriver, I reached for the Milwaukee demolition screwdrivers. I decided to try this 8-piece Milwaukee set. The screwdrivers in this 8-piece set are very well balanced. I did not recognize the balance until I held the Milwaukee and my previous set side-by-side for the same size and type. In addition, the Milwaukee feels lighter and stronger. How does a screwdriver feel stronger, right? All that I can say is that the Milwaukee feels like the better engineered screwdriver. I love the hex shank and the ends have a coating on them that makes them really grip the screw head. Also, the handles are longer on the Milwaukee, which makes me feel like I have a more precise grip on the screwdriver. There are two cons for me: (1 as the blade/tip size, e.g., PH1 to PH2 to PH3, increases, the Milwaukee handles do not increase in diameter as much as my diamond tip screwdrivers - you have better control with the larger-diameter handle, (2) the blade tip size (PH1, PH2, or PH3) is not stamped/written anywhere on the Milwaukee. Yes, you can judge the blade tip size by sight, but I've become accustomed to have the size printed on the shank. Nevertheless, the Milwaukee is still an excellent choice and has become my primary screwdriver set.
