Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not too impressed
They were real good in the begining. Pilot point worked as advertised. But within a year, half are way too dull. A few are out of shape. The makita drills I had in a different combination set I bought were not as precise but they are still useful. My usage has been about 60% wood and 40% drywall/wood combination. May be it will do better for some one who uses for wood only. I am not a contractor but do use it quite often around the house.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great value
Great set of drill bits for somebody doing misc. tasks around the house. I bought it to help hang pictures, hooks, etc and it has everything needed. Not sure you can get a better value at $20.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - OK general purpose bits
I've been using these bits for general purpose construction of my house for the last 7 months. For drilling lumber they work well but are very aggressive (as another reviewer pointed out).

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Pilot point? Not sure where it would be useful.
I was looking for a set of drill bits in the 5/8 - 1/2 inch category, and I happened to see this dewalt set at home depot. I got it thinking its dewalt, its got to be good. Well, maye Im using it for the wrong purpose, but when I drill holes in soft wood like pine, it rips up the wood at the top pretty bad. My old B&D twist drill bits do a cleaner job. Guess I should have done my research before buying this set.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Dewalt 16-Piece Pilot Point Drill Bit Set
Excellent product. No problems with getting the product. It was new and therefore in great condition. Plus it cost less than anywhere else.
