Irwin, Milwaukee, Dewalt, are you listening. I've had numerous bits snap off or shatter doing relatively light work. that have become very common, even in the home. 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.
That said, I'd be willing to pay a pretty health ransom for a higher quality set with the same diversity. The down side is that the quality deserves a one-star rating. It has paid for itself in both those regards. I have owned this set for several years. 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).
This set is certainly not for any serious job, but no surprises there.
Great product for the price. Better quality than some others you pay the same money for.
Otherwise, this is a great, inexpensive set. 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. 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. The #1, 2, and 3 philips fit those screw heads properly, and the various others suit their jobs with aplumb.
Several of them have 'strip' or have broken edges after single use. I have found some of the screw bits of unsatisfactory quality. Not sure if all are alike or I just happened to receive a lower grade/hardened steel used in bits.
I have been using this product for all kind of stuff and its superb.
