5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic! Works as advertised April 26, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase
I recently took down a metal gazebo on my deck. The 2.5" deck screws that held the gazebo in place were stripped and the tops were rusted. I tried every tool I had to remove them and they wouldn't even budge. I was afraid they'd never come out and I'd have to shave them down. After ordering the 4-piece Grabit tool, I read the instructions and within 5 minutes I had extracted all of the deck screws. I was overjoyed!!!

After that, I immediately went inside the house to extract two very small & stripped screws that were in a bedroom wall. It took two turns of stripping and extracting the screws, and then Viola! Worked again!

Best $20 I ever spent on a tool!

TIPS:
A. Use eye protection and gloves. When drilling out the screw, it generates a lot of small metal slivers which can fly out and could get into you eyes. They're small enough to stick into your skin as well, so wear heavy gloves. Make sure you clean-up afterwards or you could step on them.
B. Read the directions. I think some of the other people who reviewed this product didn't read the directions and just tried to muscle it (hence the melted extractor bit).
C. Go S-L-O-W. Use a variable speed drill and go as slow as possible. Also, set the torque on your drill to the most powerful setting so it doesn't "click" when it meets resistance.

Good luck!

5.0 out of 5 stars Works as advertised February 5, 2008
I was a little skeptical about this, but had a broken bolt that I needed to extract with few other options. I paid $20 at a local hardware store for a set of two. These things work like a gem! That bolt came right out with no problem when I really thought it wouldn't budge. One note to help out, I found it hard to get the drill bit side to stay centered on the bolt when starting. Using a good center punch might be helpful just to get the bit to stay centered. Overall, I am impressed, these are going on the list for stocking stuffers to friends and family next year.

5.0 out of 5 stars First screw remover that actually worked for me May 1, 2008
Not sure what the others that gave this a bad review had problems with. I have owned dozens of other models screw removers, and have never had a single one work, sometimes I had one that would get out 1 screw out of 12.

I have used this set 9 times now, and it worked all 9 times saving me countless headaches and a ton of money from not having to replace entire parts because a screw was rounded off or stripped.

I used this set on 4 sizes of phillips head screws, 2 sizes of hex screws and 2 sizes of slotted screws and worked flawlessly on every type. Maybe the others not using it right? You are supposed to "drill" out the head with one end of the tool, turn it over and then use the removal side, money every time I tried it anyway.

This thing grabs so tight that even my Dewalt impact driver will not let go of the stripped screw even when it is "impacting" to get out those stubborn long screws or rusted in screws.

Very easy to use, but It did slip out the first attempt. I guess it just needed a bit of a downward pressure in order for the bit to bite onto the screw.

Worked like a dream! All you have to do is follow directions. Keep the drill in reverse, apply lots of pressure and the damaged screw comes right out.

Great deal and actually worked. used it to remove 10 or so screws in a tight area on my boat. Screws had been in place for 25 years and were bound in the fiberglass.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works fine if you know the tool's limits
This extractor works fine for taking out your typical sized screw, but don't bother using this on anything larger. I ended up breaking one of the extractors.
