Satisfied? Not even close!

My analysis of a certain product in the Power Tool Parts & Accessories category under Tools and Home Improvement didn't meet my expectations. This item may seem durable, but it is far from accurate and precise. Sadly, it turned out to be a complete waste of money. One pro is that it arrived on time, but the con is that it's not reliable and gave off an unpleasant feeling while using. Save your wallet and pick another brand.

Pros
  • Durable carbide construction provides long-lasting and reliable performance.
Cons
  • Not suitable for specialized or heavy-duty applications due to its "general purpose" designation.

So many positives compared to other hole saws, WOW!

Why? Why didn't I buy this set ONE YEAR AGO?!?!?! I LOVE THIS CROWN SET! Quality, EXCELLENT, they slide in and out easily when changing attachments, I've had over 30 sets of hole saws in my life. I use lots of hardwoods, one hole of which will usually ruin your regular hole saw on white oak, or maybe 50 holes with pine alone. I've already cut about 50 holes in 8/4 solid white oak and 4/4 solid white maple with it. It still cuts like new!

Pros
  • Shaper accessories
Cons
  • The list is getting long.

Not suitable for mild steel, teeth have short lifespan

Avoid these unless you are only working with aluminum or wood. I bought two Diablo bits to test how well they work and both broke very quickly in 1/4" mild steel. I used the first with a hand drill and was able to drill three holes before the carbide inserts broke to the point where they could not cut. Thinking it was user error and having poor control of the drill, I bought a replacement for my drill. The second bit actually fared much worse, only being able to cut two holes. I will be using…

Pros
  • Power & Hand Tools
Cons
  • Nothing
