I've rebuilt engines, fixed exteriors on cars, installed DVD systems in my wifes car's headrests, installed my own irrigation systems on both of my houses (over 1500ft of piping), have done my own tile, surround systems, built rooms, added bathrooms and the list goes on and on of things I've done and uses I've had for all of my tools.. I know a quality tool when I see one and these aren't quality just from looking at the pictures. I can assure you anyone who disagrees has never held a real hammer. They're heavy for a reason.. The heavier the hammer the less work to drive the nail.. Screwdrivers are built with heads that are designed to grip a screw rather than strip it when you have a hard time getting a screw out.. These probably won't do that.. And.. I'd like to apologize for some earlier comments, like women having no use for tape measures.. I forgot about blinds and things of that nature.. It's good to see so many women who hang their own picture, but when I say pictures I mean things like the 4X6' paintings I have through the house. Sorry if I offended anyone.

Unless $60 of the original purchase price was donated to breast cancer organizations (and real ones that actually use the money for research rather than fund someone's Ferrari fetish). Let's start with the Hammer. This is a $1.00 hammer with pink on it.. It's too light to use for anything worth while and let's face the facts, most women who are married to a man would just get a man to hang their pictures anyway because 1, it's usually a two person job, and 2 Pictures are often too heavy for a lot of house wives who don't frequent the gym on a regular basis. Well, having said that you can throw out the need for a level and 90% of the household uses for a tape measure. Both of which are included in this kit and absolute junk, once again. The screwdriver is the cheap plastic handled garbage with no form of magnetic backing so any screw you try to use will simply fall unless you press it against the wall before actually letting go.. It's about $2.00 for that nifty piece of work.. Onward to the ONLY piece that looks 1/2 decent. The Hex Keys. This looks like a "quality" part. I'm sure it's made of plastic and will break the first time you use it on anything with resistance. But wait.. What do women in the house use a hex key for? Nothing.. The only thing I've ever used one on is putting my son's crib together. Lord knows I need my own personal set of tools for that.. Well, I guess my point is.. Just because it looks cute doesn't mean it's worth money.. and trust me.. If my wife had that dumb kit and I was in a pinch and needed to use a tool and didn't care how crappy it was, I'd still use her pink tool kit.. It'd be blackened with grease when I was done with it anyway.. Rather than spending money on MORE STUFF you should all take a moment and watch the video at this link and pass it on to friends and family.. www.thestoryofstuff.com (note: I'm a computer systems engineer, not some backwoods hillbilly who beats his wife in case I came off that way.)

I love it. I've used it to hang and level pictures, assemble Ikea furniture, and measure interior dimensions of windows so I can order shades. It's functional, and most important of all...my tools never get absorbed into my husband's tool shop. There's no question which tools are mine! I bought this kit last year. I love it.

Actually, they're extremely high quality, lifetime guarantee and worthy to be in any person's tool kit. What a great gift! Interesting how an anonymous person might say the tools are no good.
