Stickers on product
Seller product labels placed directly on product case. Stickers don’t peel off easily and you can’t use a label remover solution due to the ink printed on the box listing specs of the drill bits.Product itself is fine, stickers just ruin the visual appearance and takes time to get cleaned up.

fast and accurate
1 1/8" bit needed to drill for robotic bearings. Worked perfect

Some bits bent
I have bits that turn true in my drill press, and some of these don't. They're still usable actually, but it's hard to precisely position the holes without some trial and error using the spur. Maybe they were damaged? Otherwise, they're sharp and seem durable so far. The 1/2 bit has drilled about 25 2 inch holes in red balau and still seems sharp.

Great quality bits
You might pay a little more upfront but these are quality bits, not cheap Chinese bits that dull after one use, highly recommended

Ordered these over Chinese products
They are sharp and work well. Package states they are made in Austria. Didn’t want chinese

Can't go wrong with Diablo
I am very happy with this bit. It ripped right through an inch poplar board like a knife through butter. I have yet to see a bad Diablo product. From their saw blades to their sandpaper, they have never let me down. Yes, its more expensive but you get what you pay for.

The base of the cut was not smooth
Great quality pieces, have many. This particular bit did not leave an absolute clean bottom of cut. Most of my forstners do however. Perhaps this was from a bad batch. The cutting edge feels very sharp. Cutting speed, 750RPM. I'll work with it and see if I can get it to cut a perfectly flat bottom, its's close but could be better. Will work for most applications.

The chamfer of bit is aggressive.
I bought this tool because it says for hardwood and soft. It’s not suitable for hardwoods, it jams up cutting in hardwood having too aggressive of a design. I only buy diablo bits for woodworking there router bit are great, so never thought It wouldn’t work.

Good product, not exactly as displayed in listing
The product I received looked slightly different from what was advertised but the bits seem to be the expected quality.Due to the design of the box, the smallest bit (1/4") will flop around making it difficult to close the box at all without adjusting it a few times. You can see the issue in one of the images I've uploaded.

Not for Hardwood
I wish I had read through the reviews before purchasing this bit. I felt I didn't need to, respected brand. The bit cut three holes in 1/2" maple with ease and that finished the bit. Those are expensive holes. I will be returning
