The Best Multi-Bit Screwdriver

A screwdriver might be the single most essential tool for minor home repairs. It’s the ultimate kitchen drawer tool and can help with loose hinges, toy batteries, and wobbly door handles, all on the fly. But to get the most out of it, you need one with a good bit selection—a comfortable handle and a nice ratcheting action are pluses too. In eight years of researching and testing screwdrivers, we've found that the MegaPro 13-in-1 Multi-Bit Ratcheting Screwdriver is the one tool that gets everything right. Other screwdrivers might have additional features or a finer ratchet, but for a solid ratcheting action, fantastic bit storage, a useful selection of bits, and an oddly comfortable handle, the MegaPro is the one to beat. This is also one of Wirecutter’s longest standing picks. We’ve been recommending it since we first started writing about screwdrivers in 2013.
