Good set, they do the job. Always go slow with the drilling and they will do the job as intended.

Anyone who owns Price-Pfister sinks knows that over the years they have deliberately used softer screws to hold the washer in the cartridge so that instead of a 40¢ washer the entire $6.99+ cartridge must be replaced. It’s gotten worse. My bathroom sink has had one replacement of the hot water cartridge several years ago and recently developed the tiniest of leaks. I popped the cap of the facet handle—the handle, not the cartridge—put a Phillips screwdriver into a virgin screw, pushed down and turned, and stripped the soft head. I made valiant efforts to turn it, all in vain. Baking soda and super-glue did not make a new head. So I ordered this set from Amazon for $7.73, but then went to Lowe’s and bought their “SpeedOut Steel Double-Ended 2-in Screw extractor set $17.98 4.5 Stars.” I carefully researched and followed all the DIY instructions to use it right and did get it right. Sprayed first with a silicone lubricant. Knew exactly the screw size and the right extractor to match. Moved progressively up the thickness ladder of extractors and always drilled slowly counter-clockwise to keep maximum traction. Nothing worked. I even used a Porter-Cable metal cutter to cut a new straight deep slot for a big screwdriver—in vain. I decided to cut the handle in half, and wanting to know how much room there was to spare I decided to remove the cold water handle. To my shock, despite it having a virgin screw head, being locked with a plumber’s wrench at the base, my spraying with Silicone lube, and pressing down with all my weight that screw too was completely locked into place. So I called a plumber to replace the entire sink and made an appointment three days in future. Then this little kit from Amazon arrived. I thought it was pointless even to try, but I did. The handle was already lubed. I used the #3, drilled all the way down, then reversed. Up it came, easy-peezy, just like that. Why? This less expensive kit has deeper-cut less densely spiraled cutting edges so they bit into and gripped the softer screw metal and pulled it right out. Despite the lower 4.3 rating this screw extractor is a very good buy.

My drill is 20$ and it still worked!! I had 2 screws: The first one had a stripped head and needed a bigger size to get out (always start small and go higher as needed!!!) The second one was headless and deep and needed a small size to get out This extractor resolved both issues. 10/10 LOVE this extractor.

I had two severely stripped screws stuck in the clamp of a baby gate securing a glass railing. After several failed attempts with other tools, I bought this screw extractor as a last resort, honestly, I was skeptical it would work. To my surprise, it performed flawlessly. I carefully followed the instructions and advice from other reviewers. First, I used the burnishing end of the bit to carve a clean groove into the stripped screw. Then, with steady pressure and patience, I switched to the extractor side—and both screws came out cleanly and completely. This tool saved me from what could have been a much bigger hassle. It turned a frustrating situation into a satisfying fix. I highly recommend this to anyone dealing with stripped or damaged screws. It works exactly as promised.
