Not useful for heavy work
Its only useful for light work like opening PC cabinet screws or screws on back of the electronic toys etc. I tried using it to fix a dress hanger on the door and it broke.

Good value for money; worth buying if you really need a short lenght rachet driver
(might add a picture later but the ratchet driver appears exactly like in the seller pictures)TL;DR : It's great value for money if you intent to use it for masonary and woodwork.I've been using regular screwdrivers (been using various types of tools for well over 20 years) and bought this as well as three other types (the black and decker (B&D) BD40K27 motorized driver, Makita D-58849 fine ratchet driver and Bosch pocket corded driver). This review primarily focuses on the B&D Phillips BDHT68127 Steel Multi-Bit Ratcheting driver which I bought for around RS 274 on September 2022.The driver has a thick, soft handle which makes it comfortable to hold and work with. The handle is made with a mix of hard and soft plastic which helps with the grip. The ratchet mechanism is slightly wobbly and the selector switch is excessively smooth. While this makes selecting between the directions easy , it's hard to put it into lock mode because you need to carefully place the selector in the middle for that. It's possible that a hard fall might knock the selection into a different position or even damage the tool.The ratchet has coarse gearing (not as smooth as the Makita) which is neither a good nor a bad thing. The kind of screws where a ratchet driver is useful most likely don't benefit from fine torque.This tool also comes with a ( mostly ) useful set of screw bits for someone in India. I've rarely come across pozidrive screws here but plenty of slotted and regular philips heads with torx on some furniture. Usually uncommon screws seem to be found in electronic good where this tool is not useful.Comparing against a regular screwdriver, IMO you have primarily specific category of uses:1. Electrical work on switches, breakers etc : Not very useful because the length is not adequate and the ratchet wouldn't work very well when the screws aren't tight throughout the disassembly. You also can't touch the metal parts of the driver because of risk of shock.2. Plumbing : Again, I don't think it's a good idea to use this driver with plumbing work. The bits some times fall off and you don't want it to land in some drain. Also the wet environment might cause rusting and jam the mechanism. I'm not sure how feasible it is to disassemble it and grease the internals.3. Masonry and carpentry : It might be the prefect tool for these. In both cases, you don't usually have deep recessed screws and they tend to be tight throughout. The ratchet would help with the hand fatigue too.4. Electronic goods, computers : Not a good tool for this case. A lot of them have deep recessed screws where only a thin and long screw driver can enter. The screws themselves are tight only once they're nearly done and you need smaller sizes like philips #00. Also you don't need a lot of torque to tighten them.

Excellent Tool
It's a great tool to have, at first I though since it has moving parts it might not be strong enough to tightened screws with full force. It's way too sturdy and well built I was able to withstand full pressure applied by me. Excellent product, I would recommend this product to any one wanting to purchase it. Thank You Amazon and Thank You Cloudtail India for your excellent service.

Good and value for money product.
This comes with 10 types of srew driver bits. And the quality is descent. All comes handy in household and semi-professional work. Strictly not recommended for full fledged professional work. Works good for computers, wiring/screwing for home decoration/lighting, furniture, motercycles(mirrors, battery and lights) kind of stuffs.

Very good.
I really like the item. It corresponds to the descriptions. It's very easy to use and sturdy enough for my requirements. Price is reasonable and compare to other brands, it's not too pricey. Before I order the item,I am sceptic about it while reading different reviews. I think it's a good product and it exceeds my expectations.
