I bought this set mainly for the T6 size required to tear apart my 17" Macbook Pro to replace the hard drive (a much easier task than I thought it would be!), and it worked perfectly! No stripping of screws or screwdriver occurred, and the feel of the screwdriver felt great in my hand.

Highly recommended!

FYI: If you're going to replace your MB Pro hard drive, print out the excellent instructions available from www.ifixit.com.

i've looked for a long time for a good set of torx screwdrivers; this set has a handy case with six different sized tools, and neat swivels at the end of the handles so you can screw or unscrew the hardware as necessary without ever having to lose a positive grip on the tool. the only problem is that, with what should not have been a lot of torsion on the handle, the threads on my #6 driver twisted the first time i used it. fortunately, it still works, but i simply think that a tool should not deform under normal use. definitely not for heavy work, but as long as you remember it's not made of the most durable of materials and do not try to over-tighten your hardware, you should be okay.

I purchased this set of mini-torx screwdrivers to expand the range of my existing torx screwdrivers (the smallest of which was a T15). The largest screwdriver on this set is a T10 and it goes down to T5 (which is quite small). I have sinced used these screwdrivers to repair a signal switch on my VW Golf and take my Xbox 360 apart (more than once). So far, they appear to be holding up well - no rounding of the corners observed.

I especially like the fact that the end of the screwdriver that sits in your palm rotates freely so it is very easy to apply some pressure with your palm and then spin the screwdriver with your fingers - very nice feature. The case is a little cheaply made but the price is right so I can't really complain. If you are looking for a mini-torx set, this one will work nicely.

I purchased this set of torx screwdrivers because I have several old hard drives collecting dust. I wanted to remove the magnets from the drives and the torx set I have didn't go down small enought to fit the screws on the hard drives. These worked great, and I had no trouble taking the drives apart and collecting the magnets. As usual Amazon did a good job of packaging the order and got them to me fast...Thanks Amazon

This is a very snazzy little toolkit. I bought it so I could take my old Compaq 1200 Z laptop apart to find and replace the CMOS battery. One concern was, I didn't know exactly which sizes of wrenches I was getting in the kit, but I didn't know what size the screws were, either. I got all the screws out, but the CMOS battery seems to be under the keyboard and no one can tell me how to remove the keyboard without damaging something. (No, I don't see any screws in the back.) Anyway, I love the snazzy little toolkit and LOVE AMAZON FREE SHIPPING.

Like other reviewers, I bought this tool set for the sole purpose of extracting the hard disk from my dead 15" MacBook Pro. The T6 driver performed flawlessly, and twenty screws later, I freed the disk.

The tool set seems to be of high quality construction, and I highly recommend it.

This six piece set of Mini Torx screwdrivers are made solid and the grips are excellent. The kit also includes a decent carry case so as to keep them all together. Can not go wrong for the money on this set.

I kept looking for a small torx screwdriver set and finally found this set. It arrived yesterday and I already have used it twice. Excellent feel imlove them.

I have only used them a couple of times, but I can tell that they are pretty nice to have around and are worth the money. They come in a small case which doesn't take up much space. The screwdrivers look and feel nice. I would recommend these as of right now.

The tools are used to perform computer maintenance on MacBook Pros. They work quite well.
