Pros: Company is fantastic: transparent, ethical, and fights for the betterment of the industry. Toolkit is made of durable tools (except for those that need to be flexible to make sure your device doesn't get damaged) and the screw-drivers are backed by a lifetime warranty. The tips are magnetic (quite strong magnets at that) and the grip itself is quite strong (it didn't bend working as a lever to straighten my desk). The toolkit itself has a bunch of tools I didn't know I would find useful and the company website makes me WANT to find time to repair my old broken electronics, something I never thought I would say. I can safely and proudly support this product and this company at this moment whole-heartedly.
Cons: Yes, it is expensive. Yes, you can get comparative toolkits with lower-quality parts and less extensive warranties for a lower price. But as someone that cares about tech, the industry going forward, my impact on the planet I and my future kids will live in, and the longevity of the tools I buy, the price is worth it.
Conclusion: Buy it. If you need a toolkit that will last you a lifetime and want to contribute to something that is good for the environment, this is the only brand I can confidently recommend. Whether you get the entire toolkit or just the screw-drivers is up to you. But if you care about tech, the right to repair, and your impact on the planet while wanting to be a techie like me, this is it.
