How durable are the heads on these? I have another precision set I got from RadioShack (lol) and the smallest Phillips head bent painfully easily.

They're pretty good. I've mangled small screw heads before the tools. Of course, any small tool head can be bent, but I'd say that these are pretty strong. Looking at my tools- they're all still in perfect shape.

They're quite durable. I purchased this set in September of last year and I have used it on multiple cell phones and laptops. The #000 Phillips screwdriver I have used the most and I took a picture with a macro lens to show you how well it's held up. http://i.imgur.com/H4MrxbR.jpg Hope this helps

I can not assure you that the heads are so durable, the only drawback is that they are not magnetic

I've not used the Radio shack screw drivers ? These seem to be OK in the durability department, but they are not professional grade. If your a home owner-tinker', do you need professional grade KLEIN Tools ????

Hold long they last really depends on your usage of them as this varies from person to person. We will be offering replacement heads for sale next month.

I've been very happy. The head on ours does not move downward. The sound has not had any problem. I would ask for a replacement.

I use them in my RV for microwaving food. I bought them specifically for that and as of over nearly two years they have been fine. I have no idea how you could bend one.

I used mine, and one of mine also broke right off. You can't press to hard or they break.

Ive have not tried to remove the heads, nore do they fall off like some of the cheaper ones. I just ordered another set as a Christmas gift so I pretty much like them a LOT!

I have not had any issues with the headset being fragile or too tight. If you leave the headset long enough they will cause discomfort but so will anything making contact with my ears for hours.

Mine held up pretty well for ~18 months. I used them longer than that, which was a mistake, because they started hurting my neck. Overall I'm satisfied enough to order another set, but I will be sure to replace them at the 18 month mark next time around.

hi response as described by Joseph P exactly as I would have described philips head is a cross point bit, as an avid modeller this is the best thing since sliced bread Mike

Did you somehow break these? I would definitely recommend reaching out to Klipsch. Most likely wear and tear or accidentally breaking these seen covered but it never hurts to ask and be honest about it. I love these headphones id be devasted if I lost or broke these. Luckily you could typically find another pair for under $100

mine seems ok. Sometimes you have to get a good strait angle on it and as with any phillips head screws you need to get a good body angle on it so you can put some weight into it. It's true with any screw gun if you are reaching up or over where you can't get any weight on it , it will have trouble. I also have a regular drill driver (Bosh or Dewalt 18 volt) I use for those screws where I can't get a good angle. Ron

I think the pivot heads are good. As mentioned in my post, I had a previous model and the only problem I had with the heads was after dropping the shaver. I can tell you it did not pass the drop test. The heads on this razor are a little bulkier and could be a little more durable but I would suspect dropping it will damage the heads. Regarding the cleaning station, I've never used the Norelco cleaning station but I had a cleaning station from another mfr and my experience was not good. The heads are really easy to clean, they flip open and you can rinse them under running water. I do it after every shave and they stay perfectly clean. I think the pivot heads are good.

I dunno, I'm 38 years old and I've had these for about two years. I had to buy new tips because I lost one somewhere but, other than that, they still deliver great sound and aren't falling apart in any way. I use them practically every day, wrap em up and stuff in my pocket after use, and haven't had any problems. My wife, on the other hand, can't seem to make hers last past six months. I dunno, I guess it has to do with each person.

I've had mine for a few months. Only issue I came across was my own issue. I didn't tighten a screw all the way and I thought my sticks where warped. After I tightened it, the sticks worked good.

Being a grown male with (I would say) an average sized & shaped head have shook my head back `n forth quickly (as in a "no" fashion) and have noticed the Sennheiser PC 310 headset slip slightly over the ears (but come back to center). You certainly wouldn't do any headbanging sessions with them on (not that I Headbang). I feel they have just the correct tension for my head size/shape. You actually don't want them too tight, because after a time, you will get ear cartilage fatigue and get to the point you will not want to wear them due to discomfort. So these Sennheiser PC 310 have just the right balance of grip versus comfort for me.

Mine lasted about 4 days before they snapped. After several attempts to get support, I finally got an email thread going where they wanted pictures of the broken headset. Their reply to the pictures was that I "must have abused them, and that abuse is not covered under their warranty." This was almost two years ago; I cannot believe that they continue to sell such an inferior product or that Amazon continues to sell them.

The durability of these should be good, but it depends on how you use and/or handle them. If you are rough with them by pulling them off your head abruptly, the elasticity could make them lose grip over time. If you are gentle with them, they can last a lifetime. I hope this helps.
