    Decent bits

    Decent little set for the price, only used 5 pieces, 4 were fine one was a tiny bit blunt. When using on wood or HDPE feed rate MUST be very slow and of course go halfway through and finish off from the other side. Blade covers are very good, allows bit to be put in drill press without cutting fingers.

    Not worth it

    I realise that this is a very reasonably priced item, however, the finish on the bits could be a lot better. Some of the larger bits have bent teeth and are dull before they have been used. On soft wood or composite boards they are fine, but on harder woods they won't cut and overheat very quickly. My review would have to say that they are not even worth the reasonable price unless you have the gear to sharpen them properly.

  • Quality forstners and cheap

    Good cutting properties easy pattern to re sharpen and does not have the worm thread on the end so does not drag the bit in too fast especially if using a cordless drill which will stall the motor. If they had a hexagonal shank they would be 100%. Alex

  • Nice surprse for retiring Landscaper.

    I bought these bits as a beginner to woodwork as a hobby, thinking that if I bought a cheap set it wouldnt matter if I messed them up.Ive found however that these bits are very good quality for the money and doing a spot on job so I'll be looking after them hopefully for years to come.Terry,

  • Great forstner bits for the money

    I bought this set for some home improvements work and I’m glad I bought them, straight out of the box they performed perfectly, I used several of the bits all worked great even on hard knots with no problems at all, all in all a great set at a great price

  • Hilka 16 piece Forstner drill bit set.

    Not top quality but plenty good enough for retired "shed-man". £21 for 16 Forstner bits compared to £15 elsewhere for one 41mm bit. Probably not good enough for heavy professional use but cuts a clean hole.

  • Cutting it

    Packaging arrived unfortunately damaged and the plastic box within also damaged, but couldn’t return as the tools were required for a job immediately. Only tried thee of the set thus far but they cut well and quick. 5 stars if the box was undamaged
