For the price this kit is an amazing deal! I bought it figuring the case it came in would be next to useless, but I took a chance on the bits being all there and in good condition. I was pleasantly surprised, the case seemed sturdy, the little dividers in the front were loose, and the pieces were displaced, but it was nothing a little glue couldn't fix, and displacement of small parts is to be expected for something that gets shipped half way across the US.
If you're looking for a good set of rotary tools for a great price and don't really mind a little gluing/rearranging this is a great price.
The only thing I would be aware of is if you're looking to give this as a gift you might want to open it up and fix it first before giving it for presentation purposes. Despite this I'm giving it five stars for the great price/accessories. 228 pc. Rotary Tool Accessories Set w/ Wooden Case
If you are looking for good rotary tool bits these are nice and at a very good price, however if you are also interested in the box be prepared to do some repairs to the tool holders and dividers inside. The one I recieved they were not correctly glued in place the holes for the tools were not drilled very good or in line. to fix I had to clean up the drilled holes and re-glue the tool holders and dividers back in place. The outer box is nice though and was in good condition.
The box and the separating compartments were actually intact when I received this in the mail, which came as quite a surprise to me, considering the other reviews. However, what they say about these being fully functional bits is true in that there's more here than most could hope to burn through assuming they knew what they were doing with a rotary tool. Great value if you dont want to pay for name brand bits that'd get worn out quickly with heavy usage.
The box I recieved is about 1 1/2 times wider than the illustration, with more tools and accessories. More, but basically the same variety. Specifically there are 40 "tools" (corresponding to the top two rows). The photo shows two brass wire brushes. In fact the kit comes with NO brass wire brushes, but comes with 3 nylon brushes and 3 steel brushes. I would have prefered more and better brushes.
The remaining 188 "accessories" are mostly unmounted cutting disks, sanding disks, sanding drums, grinding wheels, and polishing wheels. Indeed, two sections (on the bottom row) are filled with cutting disks. Three sections are filled with polishing wheels. In addition there is one container of sanding disks, one section of sanding drums, one section of unmounted grinding wheels, and one container of polishing compound.
The box I recieved was entirely intact. Nothing broken, and all but a few unmounted grinding wheels were in their place.
Realistically, there are few tools I did not still have from my old Dremel kit. But what I use most (and was out of) was cutting disk, sanding disks, and sanding drums. The set is a bargain just for those.
Note however, that the sanding disks are small and NOT self-adhesive, and correspondingly there is no tool to hold self-adhesive sanding disks. If you've been spoiled by dremel diamond cutting disks, you may be disappointed by the "ordinary" cutting disks in the kit.
This is a very nice set of accessories for Dremel-like rotary tools. There are enough different tools here to satisfy most any hobbyist's needs. It's great to have all of these different bits in a handy storage box, but I would have liked to have a "Whitman's Sampler"-like diagram defining each bit (composition and grit of the sanding and grinding bits, etc.) My box arrived in perfect condition with all pieces intact, so no complaints on that end. This set is well worth the price even if it didn't include the storage box. If you own a Dremel, or similar rotary tool, you really can't go wrong by purchasing this set.
the pieces are held in by plastic pieces and they might have to be glued in but over all it's a great set for the price. If you're buying it for the box then shop for boxes and not rotary tool sets. I'm only rating it 4/5 cause I think I'm missing 2 cutting discs. It really does have everything you would need to do just about anything.
The case is garbage, but even if all the accessories arrived in a plastic bag,it's still a good deal. Once you finish off sanding and reassembling everything, the case functions OK. The amount of stuff you get is well worth the price.'
