We've got all Wiha at work and I love them. My personal stuff is craftsman and the occasional Klein I like too. As far as multi bit goes, my Klein 11-in-1(s) have been serving me well for years. Got one in the glove box, one in my desk at work, and one in my toolbox.

I like Wera Chiseldrivers and Armstrong acetate screwdrivers. Unless I need to use a hammer I find myself reaching for the Armstrongs first. Even if the screw is seized, I'll usually get out my manual impact driver rather than the Weras, but they have nice tips.
what I use:
Mechanic Work - Snap On soft instincts
Automation Work - Wera insulated
Wera handles are some of the most comfortable screwdrivers I have used, cannot get quite as much torque as easily as the Snap On (have to squeeze the wear harder) but they are much more versatile for changing grip style depending where/what you are working on.

I have a set of wera drivers and like them. But I also have a lovely set and craftsman set that I regularly grab.

I prefer my wera screwdriver set. As many have said its personal taste.
I used to think that Klein was the cream of the crop but the sharp ridges on the rubber handles can really dig into your skin under a lot of torque.

Buy the best from start, WERA!!!!
No, seriously, screwdrivers is a personal reference, what I like and think is comfortable may not anyone else likes.
So my tip is to order a few different for at then decide what kind that sits right in your hand.
However, if we must talk about quality, well then, we will never be ready.

They sell many different varieties of Wera too, from chisel drivers to ratcheting.
