Need decent screwdrivers that are both durable and comfortable to use - Halfords do a 8 piece set with a lifetime guarantee for £10 or so (on offer permanently)

Anything better out there for < £20 ?

The halfords set is hard to beat, one of the most comfortable ive ever used. Their slightly larger set with precision screwdrivers in it too is nice.
Teng are good too but slightly over your budget.

This Draper set was sub £20 when I bought them based on the recommendation from another thread

Pretty decent 'cheap' set and has worked well for me so far

This Powermax set by Sealey does the job for me. Grippy knurling on the shaft smile, hole to hang them up, rubber handle doesn't slip, sizes seem to work. £20 posted although suspect I picked them up cheaper at Halfords or somewhere. The large flat head in the picture is quite a big unit.

Couldn't resist the Halfords set when I was in looking for something else the other day hehe - it's really quite good for the money! Sturdy, weighty (not too much) and the grips are comfortable.

Only used them as pry bars so far rofl but a joy to use.

Tempted by their Torx set too - sometimes having a screwdriver is preferable over a bit holder + bit on the end of a ratchet - when removing trim etc.

If you feel like splashing out another tenner then this is an excellent set

I've used sets which are much more expensive than this and nowhere near as good. I absolutely love this set, really good value for money.
