The stainless is only good for working with stainless hardware. That would be my last addition...

The Lasertip is a all around general driver set. My first choice...

The Chiseldrivers are good for more abuse. Prying, hammers, and other misuse. First choice if you are hard on screwdrivers. Although I prefer just to keep some old Craftsman screwdrivers around for that...

Stainless Steel Wera drivers are for sensitive industries, such as food industry, Nasa... : No rust tips, always clean. Generaly speaking, stainless steel tools are more fragile and have a limited torque. They're not destinated for a general use as mechanic or houseworks, so...forget them.
Others Wera's, those with a Green handle and "lasertips" are perfect for a general use. The Yellow handles are similar to the previous but with a shaft running trough the handle and a striking cap. They're also known as "chiseldrivers".

Thanks. I'll buy Wera Kraftform Plus – Series 300 for routine works that does not require using the screwdriver as a chisel.

Figured I'd ask here instead of making a new thread. Do the yellow handle drivers have the Lazer tip too? I want to be able to pull my tool box around the shop by 1 Philips ;)

No.
Lasertips will also wear faster....

These are my favorite but are probably new from old stock as they have been updated.
The newer ones have 1/4" square in the striking cap.
Wera 932/6
932 S/6

The 3334/6 are stainless and I guess might be nice to have if you have issues with rust.
The Wera Kraftform Plus 334/6 are the laser tips which cut into the fastener to give extra grip.
