... bits you'll actually use and things that just look cool in the box

Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2014

Verified Purchase

When looking at bit sets it's always difficult to distinguish between bits you'll actually use and things that just look cool in the box. I purchased this set with a palm router. For context, I don't use the router that much and I'd consider myself a casual hobbyist woodworker. Of the 15 bits included I've used 3 over the last 2 years. Given that buying bits individually has them at anywhere from $5-10 a piece, I'm somewhere close to justifying the cost of the whole set though not quite. In that same time period I've also purchased a smaller roundover bit (the included one is a tad large), a pattern bit (straight w/ top bearing) and a larger rabbeting bit. I still think this is a pretty good deal for the set and the box is a nice touch. The trays that the bits mount into can be a bit of a tight fit though but it loosens up the more the bits are inserted and removed.

Great set for the beginner

Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2013

I got this to go with my dewalt compact router DEWALT DWP611PK 1.25 HP Max Torque Variable Speed Compact Router Combo Kit with LED's . One of the bits is too large to fit my router base plate, so I'll just have to use it without the base plate.

It is a good assortment and an excellent set for the beginner. I have never used a router before! So far, I put a round edge on pine and cedar, 16 runs 8 feet each on a single bit. Smooth cuts each time. Just slow down a bit when you get to the knots in the wood.

The case is nice, but not "very nice" as some reviewers have said. It is a cheap wood case made of plywood but it holds all the bits securely and safely, and it is sturdy enough to do the job and keep the latch securely closed.

Great set for the non-professional

Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2017

Verified Purchase

First set of these bits were a REAL bummer. The had chipped edges and cracking along the finish. The set also looked as if it had been used and the box was really beat up. I sent a return request to Amazon and they immediately shipped out a new set which is MUCH MUCH better looking than the first box I got. So far I'm happy with the new set and they do the job pretty well.

I originally invested in these since I own the identical 1/2 shank set (which does a GREAT job at everything), so I figured the 1/4 inch would be of similar quality. Obviously, the 1/2 shank is much sturdier, but the 1/4 shank have turned out to be pretty good too for less intensive routes. I'm subtracting 1 star for the bad experience of my first set, but overall the set seems to be a good compromise between quality and price. They won't win out over a Freud or Whitehall of course, but if you're looking for quality bits that'll 1. do the job 2. have some lasting power and 3. aren't complete crap, then MLCS is a great buy

I've had a router forever but never used it. So, I purchased this kit to start me off since individual bits are crazy expensive.

Pro:
-Appears to be a good quality set
-Wood case
-Variety of bits to get you started (decide what type of bits you will use, etc)
-I've used about half of the bits and they have all produced nice clean cuts

Cons:
-Compared to the other kits with this quanity, I wish it had another rounder bit.

Import Junk

Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2013

Verified Purchase

Bought this set because another reviewer said it was American made, and many positive reviews. I don't see any American made label on the packaging, and should have known better I guess because the set was priced too low to be a good quality product. I've been a woodworker for 30 years, and in my opinion the overall fit, finish, quality is typical import junk. All the guide bearings have slight wobble. The bearing set screws are not machined straight into the shaft, and this will certainly cause bearing failure, plus damage to the work piece, or could injure me when a bearing fly's apart. The cutting edge seems sharp, but this set is going back for a better quality American made set. I'm willing to pay more for a better product.

Okay for small projects, but can break!

Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2021

Verified Purchase

If you're using this on small replaceable pieces of wood, it's a nice little starter set. But, if you are going to use it on hardwoods (most things other than pine) or any expensive piece of wood, they can break under strain.

I've used them for a number of projects and they worked well, cut clean. But I used one of the pieces with the ball bearing guide on a maple butcher block countertop. The bearing exploded after about 2/3 of the edges and caused serious damage to the piece of wood that cost me several hundred dollars. I never had an issue on pine or smaller pieces of wood, so just be aware, if you're going to take on serious projects, this is not your set.

Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2016

Verified Purchase

Bought these to go with my router and am very satisfied. They're not Diablo's but the whole set costs about as much as two or three of those and work just as well for hobby grade projects. If I ever use one bit enough that it wears out, I can just replace that one with a pro grade cutter. Great value, very happy with purchase. If I ever get a router that takes 1/2" shanks, I'll be ordering this same set in that size.
