Great set of tools!
These were ordered to help with a hard drive switch I had to do. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the products. They all have a very good feel to them, they do not feel flimsy at all.The L shaped keys were very useful, as with all tools like this, you can put more pressure on it when unscrewing items. Both ends of each L key has a hex head on.The screwdrivers, although have small heads, work perfectly. They did not bend and they sure didn’t thread any of the screws. The head didn’t wear down like I have noticed on so many of my other cheap screwdrivers.The plastic spudgers lasted through two different fixes on two different machines, and I have yet to break them. They are very well made. I have been through plenty of spudgers in my time! These have already outlasted the last ones I bought.The case it all comes in, holds everything nicely. It even has a hole in it, so you can hang it up. I just ended up hammering in a nail at a bit of an angle and hung the case from that. It’s now has a place on the wall with the rest of my tools.I have used this very kit on opening my PS3 (1st gen), it really was very easy with the right guide and this toolset.I cannot comment on the suction cup, as it’s something I have not used yet, although I do have an iPod which is in need of a new screen so maybe…Conclusion: great piece of kit, well worth the money, and you get a handy case to store everything.

Worth getting if you don't already have the right tools
The toolkit worked well with the exception that it did not include a larger Philips screwdriver that was also required to maintain an iMac.Other than that the toolkit performed as expected on the iMac.The metal spudger was very solid and useful, as were the Torx L shaped drivers.Not sure what the thinking is behind the suction cup? This kit would not be suitable for iPhones, etc.

Just the kit you need
I purchased this kit to help make some changes to my 2009 27" iMac (which buy the way after 7 years still provides rock solid performance). The kit comes with 4 precision screw drivers, 3 prying tools, a suction cup (for the removable glass) and some torque screws. All of this is encased in a durable plastic re-sealable bag.This is custom made for the 2009 iMac model, using the kit you will be able to clean the inside of your iMac and make improvements to the hard drive, by removing it for a more up to date model (by the way, anyone still rocking a SEAGATE 1TB from 2009 be aware, they are prone to failure).Use a guide from YouTube to find out how to best tackle HDD upgrades and general maintenance.The kit was cheap, you may have some of the tools lying around the house to use, with this you can keep it in a draw ready to use on your iMac.All in all I would recommend this to any iMac owner (2009 model) so they can have piece of mind over accessing their iMac.

Cheap yet perfect for the job
This tool kit was used to fit some upgraded Ram and an SSD to replace my HDE in my 2010 Macbook Pro 15". All the tools needed were here and worked perfectly well. Although basic build quality, the kit was cheap. I do like cheap and cheerful sometimes. The kit did the job and contained many more tools that I have not needed to use but one day might come in useful.

Excellent Small Tool Kit
I bought this as a back up for a larger tool kit whilst repairing my laptop.The kit got used much more than the main tool kit, the 'spudgers' (flat plastic levers for opening certain types of connecting block) and the slightly magnetised screwdrivers (meaning you did not loose the screw into the machine when extracting or replacing screws in difficult locations) being the most useful items.It was also used to repair a Play Station which had lost a key.Teamed up with a good Philips screwdriver, or a set of jeweller's screwdrivers, you could attempt quite a few computer repairs with minimal reference to other tool kits.Although simple and low cost, it proved highly effective and I would recommend.

Tools got job done......Just about
Tools got the job done...just about..Bought the kit to remove the back plate of my macbook pro in order to change battery and track pad. Only really needed one screw driver for the job but figured probably worth it to buy the whole kit for a few quid more. Just about got all the screws out after the end of the screw driver turned to mush. Can only assume they are made of cheese. Some of the screws were in quite tight but no excuse for the screw driver to look like an ice pick after using. Just to warn others that the kit didn't actually have the screw driver I needed (which is a kind of triangle shaped head) to get the battery out. Managed to use a combination of the cross head screw driver and kitchen knife to get out in the end. Pretty much destroyed one of the screws in doing so. So.....overall not a particularly great kit if I'm honest..If i hadn't managed to get the job done it would obviously be one star and a refund however for a fiver what did I really expect. I suppose with tools you get what you pay for..It might be worth while just coughing up a tiny bit more for a proper kit or spending a bit more on an individual screw driver.

Awful ... Wrong screwdriver sizes ... Parts missing ...
Buyer beware! Read the reviews...Like others, I got no suction cup in my pack.Fortunately, I really only bought the pack to get a T6 torx. Unfortunately, like others here, I also found no usable T6 torx in there either. The L-key that I believe was supposed to T6 was more like T7, and forcing it into the screws on my MacBook Pro caused the inners of one of the screws to shear. If you read the reviews, you will find that my experience was not a unique one.You get what you pay for. This pack is full of cheap and nasty tools and – crucially, for something that is a specialist toolkit one buys only for a single job (taking apart a MacBook) – its parts are not the right dimensions and are poor quality. Spend a couple more quid and get the proper stuff.
