Freud88-100: 9 Piece Basic Bit Set (1/4" Shank)

I got the package from routerworld. The company was very good! to deal with. In all honesty, I should rate this as a 4 star? But after receiving this I decided I wanted to build my router collection with larger 1/2” bits and some of the bits I wasn't going to use. So I sent the package back unopened. I’m just wondering if this unopened box is making it’s rounds. I think if your going to use at least three of the bits in the collection then it’s worthing owning any less is a poise for reflection? My main issue was the lack of extra bearings to utilize the rabetting bit. They are not sold separately and you need to order the separate rabbet bit with bearings, “item sold separately “, so that was the main point of why I purchased the package deal. If Freud has added the extra bearings then it would have been a keeper. I think this collection is more or less a “loss leader” for Freud to get you in the (Red) Door.

Purchased for building oak frames for a stain glass project. I had several cuts and needed to get a clean edge. This set is well made and did a nice job. I purchased the set, since you pay $$$ for buying singles. Now part of my tool inventory the kids will get to sell, since this will not be relegated to garage sale table while I am alive. I am giving it four stars just due to cost.

Everything is good except for the expensive price

Great set for my little Makita router! The best gear,came with nice little case and plans for a nifty project

The photo demonstrates a wooden box. Not the case (no pub intended). My freud router bits arrived in a cheap wooden box shaped more square than rectangle shown, with a plastic cover, not wood. The cover is a very poor piece of plastic that was shattered and damaged upon arrival. Very cheap. It makes me wonder if the router bits are even authentic Freud quality. Will be returning. Appears like a bait and switch. To be fair, I was so frustrated that i did not try the bits because it feels like a knock off. I may be wrong re bits, but I am turned off because of low quality enclosure.

The Bits are great, but this is not the case that was delivered (bummer)

Realmente la calidad de estas "Router Bits" es excepcional. El balanceo es perfecto y el filo es inmejorable. Recomiendo esta marca pues la relación precio/prestaciones es muy buena.

This is exactly as advertised - the ideal starter set. I bought this set along with my Porter-Cable "Ultimate Router Workshop." The bits are very sharp, sail through wood, and leave a smooth finish.

Despite some of the negative reviews related to this item, mine arrived on time in a authentic Freud glass covered box and the bits I have used performed very well. I think the problem with some of the other reviewers is that they bought the product from a different vendor but through amazon. Amazon supplied the genuine article.
