Very disappointed!! January 3, 2009

I was extracting a bolt whose head had broken off. The burnishing side had almost no impact on the broken bolt. I had to use my own drill bit to create a pilot hole. Then the remover side BROKE almost immediately after applying any pressure. It's a waste of $20. What's worse is that the broken piece prevented me from using ANY extractor, and I must replace the piece I was trying to remove the bolt from. I expected a LOT more for my money.

I picked up one of the Grab-Its from the local DIY warehouse to remove some very stripped bolts from a jointer. I was impressed with the performance, but not with the instructions. From the package I bought, it's not obvious which side of the bit to use first. Also it is critical to run both the "cleanout" and the "extractor" heads in reverse. That was counter intuitive for me and not spelled out very well in the instructions. But with a few attempts, angling the drill side to side until it found a good angle, the Grab-It did work as advertised. I'll certainly use them again.

Haven't had the need to use them yet, but they look like they will work. They didn't come in a case as shown, just a thick, clear plastic bag.

Very cheap metal, high strength steel would have been better, first time I used it the extractor side broke because it is made of cheap metal!

Glad I bought them November 12, 2008

So about year and a half ago I hung a 19 flatscreen on the wall in the den. And it was a horrible experience.

You see, whoever the "engineer" was that designed it should be flogged and their engineer credentials shoved up their...

You had to screw two 1/4 3" screws (those are pretty big) into a 2 4 stud in the wall using a hex key. A hex key is the hardest tool to work with, and stripped out the head of the screw about 1/4" away from being tight. That's after pre-drilling the hole. So the whole mount has been loose all this time. And you can't undo it because the hex key stripped out the head. The words coming out of my mouth at the time would have made a truck driver blush.

So it finally came time that I wanted to fix it by doing it right and replace the crappy screws they sent with proper lag bolts you'd install with a socket wrench.

So I bought the Grabit screw extractors. Sure they're late night TV fodder, but figured I'd give it a shot, as the set was cheaper than individual screw extractors at Home Depot.

And they worked wonderfully.

I had those crappy screws removed in about 5 seconds.

Then using a proper method of a socket wrench had the whole thing remounted in about 2 minutes instead of the half hour I spent the first time cussing and yelling.

Anyways, the set of Grabits are [........], and every tool kit should have a set.
