This set of drills is just about unbeatable at the price, and on that basis alone I would recommend them. If you want top quality, which will cost a lot more, then these maybe are not for you. The smallest five in my set were sharpened off centre and needed re-grinding, but having done that they are now fine for my purpose, which is model making.

Packed received within regular timeframe with shipping and handling. Well packed, factory sealed, can confirm that isn't tempered on the road, but think that i was found unsatisfactory is that in fact there is seventeen (17) oieces inside, not twenty (20) as advertised. Some of the drills aren't really straight, but i would say it isn't something problematic. Not sure if such cheap sets will do the job for anyone using them on something stiffer than plastic.

A nicely packaged set of drills. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the sliding cover, which allows you to select and remove the drill you want without all the others falling out, is extremely stiff and I nearly broke it before I figured out how it was supposed to work. But other than that, great.

I bought this mini drill to assist in my hobby of repairing and restoring old items of costume jewellery, which quite often involves tiny parts which have to be refashioned and fixed into place. This drill allows me to redrill tiny holes at a snails pace to preserve the original body of the piece, which would be easily damaged by a motorised drill that does not turn slowly enough. The drill bits really are micro but fit into the tiny chuck of the micro drill, something that is not possible with a motorised drill, and with a little practice the archimedes screw rotor works perfectly. At first it may seem very fiddly but a little practice and you will find it easy to use one handed. I have reamed out real pearls to make the holes slightly larger by gradually using a larger and then the next size larger drill bit, working my way up until I have acheived the opening I needed, tedious but worth the effort. The only drawback I have found so far is that the plastic box housing the drill bits does not have a smooth sliding action and the drill bits can slide down into the hole intended to access them, jamming the slider, I take the lid right off while holding the case over a box to catch any that may fall out. I also use two pairs of pliers to open and close the chuck when changing bits, to ensure that the bit is held securely but once in place it works well. So patience is the password, maybe even a drop of thin oil to ensure the screw runs smoothly as with all tools but a very handy addition to my mini tools box.Read full review

Drills nice and sharp but box poor quality - I scattered all 20 tiny drills on the floor trying to slide the badly-fitting lid open. Don't let this put you off though, as the drills are incredibly good value.
