14 best toolkits for expert reviews

Women are still confident that a real man should be able to do everything. It turns out that it is not so difficult to meet this requirement if there are many useful tools nearby. In order for men's hands to get the high title of "gold", you need a good set of keys, screwdrivers, bits and other devices. Just pick the best set is not always possible for inexperienced home craftsmen. Even the most expensive sets are not always able to meet the needs of the modern owner.

Tool selection criteria

  1. Everyone knows the saying "road spoon for dinner." It can be rephrased like this: "Dear tool for a particular job." If the prestigious set does not have the necessary key or a suitable adapter, then the price is worthless. Therefore, it is important to select tools for a specific field of activity. Motorist often requires cap keys and socket heads, the home master should have everything at hand, starting with a hammer and ending with a nipper, and joiners appreciate sharp drills.

  2. But even the presence of the necessary key does not guarantee final success in work. It can not cope with a bolt or nut, because it does not have sufficient strength. It is better to pay for quality tools with a lifetime warranty than to buy the right key separately.

  3. Trying to save money, many beginners do not look to the future. Cheap kits at best have a limited range of items. It is much worse if they are made of their usual steel without additional thermal and galvanic processing. Some keys will break in an unequal battle with the bolt, and another tool will destroy the omnipresent corrosion.

  4. Understand the usefulness of a particular set of tools can be specialists in a narrow field of activity or with experience of consumers. Our review presents the best toolkits. When compiling the rating, such criteria as set completion, expert conclusions and opinions of ordinary users are taken into account.
