2.0 out of 5 stars Very disapointing, September 15, 2005

You may get 95 pieces but many of them are the same. For example, there are 6 screwdriver bits that you get qty 5 of each - that counts as 30 pieces right there but there are only 6 unique pieces. You can get these bits dirt cheap at any home improvement store by the bucket. They should disclose the exact contents on the ad. Also, there are no masonry bits. It comes with the rapid changer but most of the drill bits are standard ones that won't fit in the changer. Don't buy this!

This is a great product, worth more than the $49.95 I paid for it, but I was quite disappointed when I was able to purchase a second set at True-Value Hardware about a month later for $29.95
(including a $10rebate). I buy lots of books from Amazon because of their favorable prices and expected the same kind of pricing would be true of their other products. Now I know only to buy books there.

Although this is touted 95 pieces and may sound a lot, what you get is not really all that useful. There are tons of screwdriver bits, what for? How many of us really switch out screwdriver bits every time we use a different screw? I can understand having 3 each for slotted and philips, but not in the 10s.

Also, the quality seems cheap. Having this for 2 weeks, I already have some rusts on the converter bit, even though this never touched any water. Also, this kit comes with a set of square drive bits but not hex or torx drive bits. HOW OFTEN DO YOU USE SQUARE BOLTS??? The socket selction is minimal, and the drill bits seem cheezy too. This is a $20 set at best, you pay $20 extra for DeWALT logo and a decent case.

I am so glad Amazon reminded me to review this item so I can let it out. Where does one find quality tools nowadays?
