Rank #8 in Best Screwdriver Sets 2026: 10 Ranked, and Why the Count Lies
KELIN 68-in-1 Magnetic Ratchet Screwdriver Set
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The KELIN 68 in 1 Magnetic Ratchet Screwdriver Set is the eighth entry in this guide: a ratcheting bit set in a hard case, listed at £29.99 with 4.6 out of 5 from 445 ratings. It has the same problem as the rest of the category. The title says 68 in 1, but the set name in the same listing reads "KELIN 66-in-1 Magnetic Screwdriver Set" and the model number ends in 66H1JLLSD-HS. Then the bullet that actually counts the bits adds up to 62: 6 long at 45mm, 32 short at 25mm and 24 precision at 28mm. The listing never says which of 68, 66 or 62 is the real count.
Not every number here misleads, though. The star breakdown adds up to 100 rather than 445, so it is a percentage split and not a count of reviews: 75% five-star, 15% four-star, 8% three-star, and one each at two and one star. That averages to 4.6 and matches the headline figure. Everything on this page comes from KELIN's Amazon listing, not from any testing we carried out.

Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“What a great tool for getting into those small corners, very versatile and magnetic so holds the screw in place if you have to use your other hand to hold something. Just built two sets of wardrobes in quick time and will now be my go to tool for all occasions. Would definitely recommend to my friends and family.”

Questions people ask
How many pieces do I actually get?
The listing gives three answers. The title says 68 in 1; the set name says "KELIN 66-in-1 Magnetic Screwdriver Set" and the model number is UK-KELIN-66H1JLLSD-HS; and the bits bullet adds up to 62 — 6 long, 32 short and 24 precision. KELIN does not say which figure is correct.
Does it have a ratchet?
Yes. KELIN lists a 58-tooth ratchet mechanism with 50Nm torque output and claims it saves 80% effort in screwdriving.
What bits are in the kit?
The listing says 62 bits covering Phillips, slotted, hex and Torx profiles, plus a retractable magnetic pickup tool and a magnetiser.
The spec table says Head Style is Hex. Is that all it takes?
No. Bullet 2 says the 62 bits in this KELIN set cover Phillips, slotted, hex and Torx, so the Hex entry in the table describes only part of the kit.
Is the 4.6 rating based on 445 reviews?
The listing shows 4.6 out of 5 from 445 ratings. The star breakdown on the page sums to 100, not 445, so read it as percentages: 75% five-star, 15% four-star, 8% three-star, and one each at two and one star.
What do buyers say about it?
The reviews shown on the listing mention the magnetic hold and the range of handle positions. Paul says he built two sets of wardrobes with it; John A describes a "two way ratchet mechanism and a good selection of magnetic bits".
