My current project is making wooden cabinets with a soft or rounded edge. I have a set of Ryobi bits from HomeDepot, and although I sharpened the cutter, I had significant burnouts and chipping (to be honest, I paid a $70 Ryobi set of 15 bits). This Freud Quadra jet is made in Italy and has a slightly larger diameter than the equivalent Ryobi jet (also note the larger diameter bearing on the Freud jet). Freud's chisel cuts wood surfaces (mahogany and walnut) with minimal burning, but I was able to achieve similar chipping with Freud's chisel. If I need to round a few pieces, a Ryobi bit would be fine, but beyond that, hand sanding tight spots to remove burn marks is too time consuming. However, it is not clear whether two additional blades are beneficial for this application. Hope the beat stays sharp. Please keep in mind that this review was written by an aspiring YMMV carpenter.
