Am tech is a DK tools limited brand that started as a small family-owned repair and consultation stall in the London streets. Following their undying passion to provide consumers with DIY advice, they realized it was hard to get affordable tools. This prompted their transition into a manufacturing company that now has over 2000 tools and accessories under its name.

It has been providing affordable tools of good quality for 30 years now; At least that is what they claim. In this article, I have analyzed a couple of their tools to answer tool enthusiasts burning question of whether the Am-tech tools are of any good.

Pros of Amtech tools

• easy to assemble for beginners
• All tools are  environment friendly

Cons of Amtech tools
