When I'm going into a DIY project and don't know what I'll need this is a good set to through in "just in case." Also, it has most of the odd-ball items (torx, spline, square, etc). Overall, good set to have around and worth the money. I bought it on a whim since it had so many sizes and kinds of bits and accessories I figured it would come in handy and save me a few trips to the store later on.
I've had numerous bits snap off or shatter doing relatively light work. That said, I'd be willing to pay a pretty health ransom for a higher quality set with the same diversity. This set is certainly not for any serious job, but no surprises there.
I have owned this set for several years. The down side is that the quality deserves a one-star rating. Irwin, Milwaukee, Dewalt, are you listening.
It has paid for itself in both those regards. that have become very common, even in the home.
Better quality than some others you pay the same money for. Great product for the price.
I might not use these bits on the job every single day if you're a contractor, but they are great around the house when you want a large variety of bits all in one case. The #1, 2, and 3 philips fit those screw heads properly, and the various others suit their jobs with aplumb. If you're not sure how to properly size your bit to a screw head and keep rounding off the bits or screw heads, you're better served by hiring a qualified individual. Otherwise, this is a great, inexpensive set.
Not sure if all are alike or I just happened to receive a lower grade/hardened steel used in bits. I have found some of the screw bits of unsatisfactory quality. Several of them have 'strip' or have broken edges after single use.
I have been using this product for all kind of stuff and its superb.
