Halfords 30 Piece Screwdriver Set review

The old maxim of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” is apt for Halfords’ premium screwdrivers

Halfords 30 Piece Screwdriver Set
Overall Auto Express rating

4.0

Best price: £19.99
Contact: halfords.com
Set: 10 x plain slot, 2 x Phillips, 6 x Pozi, 6 x Torx, 3 x hex

The old maxim of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” is apt for Halfords’ premium screwdrivers. Their design hasn’t changed for years, but that’s good – no other handle as effectively combines comfort with ease of use for oily or wet hands and outright grip potential.

In fact, just a few annoying niggles prevent this kit from being the Best Buy. Although the tips are magnetic, they’re so weak that they couldn’t pick anything up in our test. It’s also a serious drawback for car work that all the plain slot drivers are flared rather than parallel.
