This review is from: TEKTON 2928 14-Piece Power Nut Driver Bit Set (Tools & Home Improvement)
Customer Video Review Length:: 0:45 MinsUpdate: When I originally posted this review the listing wasn't clear about where these bits would work and where they wouldn't. Since that time the manufacture as responded to feedback (such as this review) and will be introducing an updated set that removes the limitations I describe. On the plus side, you get 14 sockets and a convenient holder for one low price. Each socket is clearly and indelibly labeled and so is the holder. Now for the limitations... First, the shafts are missing a detent that allows them to be securely held by a quick release chuck such as with the Milwaukee 2401-22 12-Volt Li-Ion Compact Driver Kit or the (very useful)...

Based on the feedback, we are creating another set that will have detents. It should be available in a few months. In regards to magnets, our new set will not have magnets. However, our TEKTON 2906 Magnetic Nut Driver Set, 3-Piece has both magnets and detents. We apologize to anyone who bought this set expecting detents. When the new set comes out, we will makes sure that there is a clear distinction between the two. Thank you all for being a TEKTON customer and for posting such helpful reviews like this one.

I purchased this set to accompany one that came with my ratchet driver (it actually replaces it since it had the same SAE setup). These are great for the garage in a pinch when you don't want to haul out the socket sets. These are quite good for their purpose: any small nut that you can get loose by hand will work for these.I would imagine they'd strip out quickly (or strip the nut head) applying hard or sudden torque, but that's clearly not what they're meant for. If you look at the picture, you can see that these hex bits aren't standard (longer) length, as they're intended for use in a magnetized ratchet driver (or power drill, assuming you have the torque below 'drill'). As another reviewer (angrily) pointed out, these aren't meant for impact wrenches or fast change bits.

Total waste of money! 1/4" Hex Shanks are suppose to have a groove in the stem to hold them in place. To short for my cordless drill and doesn't hold in my cordless screwdriver. So they are useless to me. Thought I might have something to extend the shank, but no luck
