Great item.
Much better quality than I expected, I have used a number of the different sizes and they all function perfectly, looking forward to many years of use.

Good Quality.
Wasn't expecting very much at the price - but was very impressed once received. Good quality pieces, sharp teeth which I have used on a couple of jobs already around the house.

Excellent value for money
Have used it a few times with no problems whatsoever. The reports of loose fits etc. can only be down to inappropriate setting up in my opinion. I have rare use to cut holes in wood or plastic but the price made this a no brainer. Highly recommended.

Not fit for purpose, avoid.
Not fit for purpose. I have bought a range of Tacklife products and generally they are great quality at a low price, not the case with this product. They are blatantly low quality and I don't expect them to last, but the major defect to this product is that the central hole is not concentric with the cutting edge, meaning the saw wobbles as it rotates and it is impossible to get a neat cut. I would avoid this product, it is not worth the packaging it is sent in.

Make sure the sizes are what you need
I won't cover the quality of the individial saws which is covered a=elsewhere (OK for the money).While it's tempting to buy a kit; with every size you're likely to need, not all kits are alike. Look carefuly at the diameters offered and ensure it's what you need / likely to need. For example, a desk cable tidy collar is invariably 58mm-60mm. these hole saws jump from 51mm (far too small to attempt to widen by sanding) and 64mm (much too wide to fix with putty / resin).Similarly, ask yourself if you're likely to need the largest sizes (127mm ventilation pipe?!) or the smallest (19mm is better served by paddle drill bits). If not, the quality of the sizes you do need are subsidised by the ones you don't.

Okay for occasional use
There's a decent selection of sizes for most jobs. The saw teeth aren't particularly sharp and they cut slower than premium bits so if you have a big job needing just one size then you're better buying a quality single hole saw otherwise you'll be changing batteries regularly.The main reason I've marked these down to 3 stars is simply because the two pegs on the part that goes between the arbor and the bit fell off on the second use of the set. They still work ok but that's pretty poor. They're better than the last set of cheapo hole saws that I bought but not near what I'd personally call a quality set but also not near the price so I think 3 stars is fair.

Hole in One!
Great value for money, by no means on a par with the more expensive brands but very capable and ideally suited to the DIYer as a cost effective means of cutting a nice hole. I purchased this set to cut a 127mm diameter hole in a piece of 18mm plywood and a piece of plasterboard. I would suggest making a pilot hole first and then taking your time and letting the blade do the work. I did find that as the blade cut deeper it started to drag a bit but letting it cool for a few seconds seemed to do the trick. Only very minor issue is the clip which holds the lid closed - the one on my case didn't work and the lid won't stay closed - I think I can live with that!

Central drill bit broke on first use
Like others, I've had good experiences with Tacklife products, but this one fell astonishingly short. The very first time I went to use it, the drill bit sheared about 10mm into the workpiece, and before the hole saw had even made contact with the wood! Fortunately the workpiece contained the bit, but if the other bit is forged as poorly, I will definitely not be using it. For now, I have awarded 2 stars rather than 1 as I plan to transfer the hole saws to a more robust bit and so the purchase will hopefully not be a total loss, but if the same quality applies to the hole saw then I'll downgrade this to 1 star.For me, lesson learnt was that there is a world of difference between Tacklife power tools and their accessories.Update: Well the drill bit may have fallen short of expectations but Tacklife's customer services has exceeded them! Contacted them with the problem and a new set was sent out immediately; couldn't have been more helpful. I'll update this again with the results when it arrives.
