Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt x Set

Please bring these back!!!

They get the job done although they have a tendency to break. Honestly these have been the best we've used for our shower door installation work. Lowe's carrying them for some reason. The multi-blade bits they decided to replace them with are hot trash.

Kobalt glass and tile bits

easily break while attempting to drill through ceramic tile even if it is a pilot hole or drilling after a pilot hole...not satisfied....where is it manufactured?...you guessed it....China.

It worked, was able to drill in ceramic tile. Used water in between to cool of it.

Works better with a little water where drilling.

woked well to drill drainage hole in bottom of ceramic planter

Glass tile

Had to drill through 3/8" glass tile to install a shower door. Masonry bits barley scratched the surface. Sent the wife to get these. Used with a hammer drill and water spray bottle. Making sure it had plenty of water while drilling, it only took about 15-20 seconds be per hole. Sometimes you just need the right tool for the job. These worked perfectly and I'm glad to have them in my toolbox.

Did everything right and they still broke

Used them to drill glass tile and they broke. Used water and kept the rpms down. It made 4 holes and completed the job I needed them for before the tip snapped off.

After drilling into 5/16 porcelain two holes it bu

I needed to drill in through porcelain only it’s locally I could get better than nothing but not much better

Did the job I bought it for!

Had several clay and ceramic pots I needed drainage holes in. Was having problems with other drill bits, but these did the trick in no time!

Poor quality

Tip cane off while drilling first hole in porcelain tile

Not a good product. A few seconds into the first use drilling into bathroom tile and the tip of the bit broke off. Very disappointed. Planning to return next visit to store.

Junk

All bits for drilling tile are junk weather you keep the area wet or not. You will get 1-3 holes out of each bit before its shot.

Holes through ceramic tiles for toilet flange

This product worked perfectly! Used smallest drill bit for 6 holes to fix a toilet flange to the tiled floor. Took me about 2 minutes to do so. Compared to other drill bits for tiles I used over the years, these ones are by far the most effective ones.

Worked As Planned

Apparently, the tile we were attempting to drill thru has a harder glaze than most, according to some experienced remodelers. But, these bits did the job in getting our new range hood installed.

Junk bits

These are complete garbage. Each one came apart where the shaft meets the bit. I was attempting o use them on ceramic tile, but they failed to do the job.

short life.

after drilling my third hole the bit was completely done, and I needed to drill 3 more that size. I will return this junk to lowes for a refund. Unfortunately it will cost me a 2 hours plus fuel.

Worth every penny!

I was skeptical about buying these because of all the bad reviews, but i said what the heck I’ll give it a try. After all they are budget friendly. I just finished a tile project and i needed to hang the curtain rod. I drilled each hole like in less than a minute. You must use a water sprayer to keep the the bit from over heating (it gets hot within seconds) but it will get the job done and the bit will last for many other times for use. I recommend this product for the diy projects. 2 Thu...

works great on porcelain tile

I bought this set as I needed to drill 8 holes in porcelain tile, these worked perfectly. I used a smaller bit to drill a pilot hole then finished with the size I need. Very easy to locate and drill straight through without drill walking. Much better than those porcelain bits. Just dont expect them to last too long and keep them wetted.
