Wiha 74984 32-Piece GoBox Standard Bit Set with Mini Ratchet

Tool is good, well made, very compact but even after discount, it is too expensive for what it is, tool is not worth the high price.

Works well in small spaces well made

This is a perfect product that is value for money and useful at home. I've been using it for more than a year and fully satisfied.

Background: I have a Wera Tool-Check Plus, which is too big for me to put in my pockets for EDC with other items. I also, rarely use sockets to justify to carry extra weight. I wanted a good EDC screwdriver and wrench system with commonly used heads, plus easy to carry on a commercial plane. It was competition between this and Wera's https://a.co/d/c7Aijwi, with 10 bit set. This one won due to Wiha's quality and more heads at a price lower than the Wera's, despite of me being a "Wera-hore" as my significant other calls me. I added my Wera 813R ESD as the screwdriver for the EDC to supplement this kit. Pros: 1. Very compact. Measures about 5 inches long and about 1.5 inches thick. It easily fits my pants (both jeans and cargo) or shorts right pocket along with the 813R screwdriver and Knipex Cobra 6-inch pliers, Leatherman Squirt PS4 multitool and Skeletool knife. The pocket does not look overly filled nor do the tools stick to my hips like a colony of leeches. 2. Good quality. This tool is robust and well made. Based on my experience, I believe Wera has better quality, finish, packaging and presentation, and durability at a higher price, compared to Wiha. Whether that "value" is better, only you can answer that. 3. Versatility. This has a good assortment of bits, a nice extension piece, and a very good ratchet. It basically satisfies my needs while being outdoors, riding my bike, or performing work around the house. Coupled with the screwdriver, it gives me additional flexibility and capability. 4. Workability. You can add a good amount of force and torque to move some of the tight pesky screws without any issues. The extension really helps with getting that additional driving force. Being small, it can work around tight spaces and unreachable areas. Cons: 1. Weight. This is heavy. It does lug around some. I did not measure the actual weight, but it does seem to pull down on pockets which do not have additional lining reinforcements. 2. Packaging. As mentioned earlier, Wiha saves costs with packaging in ho-hum ways. This can lead to packages getting damaged (see the last picture). It was the first one I ordered, which was missing the most important tool - the ratchet. Amazon's handling has quality issues. Had to return it. The second unit shows decent packaging, but not nearly as good as Wera has beautiful boxes for its units. 3. The ratchet direction switch is easy to move with your thumb on it with little or no pressure, without noticing it. I had multiple times, only to realize why the screw wasn't tightening. This can be a major flaw if you are working on a critical work. The Wera's direction switch is much smaller and requires more pressure, that you cannot accidentally bump it. Comparison: For comparison, I have shown the Wera's ratchet and extension with Wiha's. While Wera's ratchet is similar, the quality and feel of it feels better. The extension for Wera is stubbier and smaller. The unhooking mechanism feels better than Wiha's. Again, for the price and usage, it was not a concern to justify paying higher. Bottomline: This is a good EDC set for taking around with good versatility and quality at a very good price (<$30). I hope to keep it for a long time unless my priorities change or I lose it. I will give it a 4.7/5.0.

Muito bom, catraca de alta qualidade. Caixa em metal, muito pequeno e portátil. Excelente qualidade e preço.
