Very useful.
Very useful as I’m building flower boxes from recycled decking. Have not used the glides yet .

It's ok for the money, nothing more
Not the greatest router bits ever, as expected by the price paid. They're ok for very moderate use, and on softwoods basically. If that's the only thing you're doing with them, you're fine. On hardwoods (I tried using them in olive wood, which is extremely hard), even with light passes, they struggle to leave a good finish, and dull out relatively fast.Also, NONE of the bearings were working fine. I thought at least one or two would be fine, but wasn't that lucky. Out of the box they all wobble a lot, and half of them were even "crunchy" while spinning them with the finger. Tried two of these with bearings, both bearings shattered almost immediately after contact with the work surface.A word of warning: the bits fit very snuggly in their places in the box (which is a very nice and tidy box, btw), which means quite a bit of force is needed when pulling them out. So, be extremely careful when taking them out of their places, wearing suitable gloves as caution, so you don't get your fingers sliced by the cutting edges.Giving it 3 stars because they're ok for the price (you literally get what you pay for). If they were more expensive, I'd give it a 1 star rating.

Router bit assessment
I have not had a chance to use these router bits yet but I am quite impressed with the way the set is presented in it's own wooden box which enables you to keep them all in one place when not in use. Also I am from an engineering background of around 40 years so am fussy what I buy from a functional point of view. On close inspection of the. Contents of this router set my judgement is that the quality for the price is very good and I'm sure if looks are anything to go by then functionally I would expect these bits to to quiten satisfactory.

Happy with these
Bought a small hand router and this box of cutters to use with it. They seem quite well made. Used a couple of them and they did the job ok.

Did as good a job as more expensive bits.
First time using a router, I didn’t want to invest in expensive bits in case I was hopeless and wasted money. However, I don’t see the need for the expensive bits now as this did an amazing job. Granted I’m a novice when it comes to routing, but I can’t fault these.

Good for the Money
Delivery was quick and prioduct was well packages. I've used 50% of the bits and they make a nice clean cut. Only time will tell whether they last but for the money, I'm satified with my purchase. Would recommend for light use, I'll use my 1/2 router for bigger jobs. I like the storgae box too, router bits are quite easily damaged and shouldn't be thrown in a drawer/box. In summary, I'm a happy customer

which was very annoying. As for the product itself
When I bought this I didn't notice that I was buying it from a different supplier to the router I purchased at the same time, so I got the router about 2/3 days before this bit set arrived, which was very annoying. As for the product itself, I've only used it once, and it seems the goods alone are worth perhaps 4 stars and they seem to be good value, but because of the tardy posting/dispatch system only gave them 3 stars as overall service has to be included in reviews imv. . .

Very useful bits for a beginner in routing
Very useful bits for a beginner in routing. They do the job adequately and are worth the money. They come in a case which keeps them protected and not get lost. I used them to do decorative mouldings instead of buying them and also dados etc. Well recommended.
