Good price

Would Recommend

I’ve only used three of them so far. They cut cleanly. They had a good amount of packing grease all over the bits. Lowe’s had them at a good price.

Great product, great price, excellent service.

Would Recommend

I got just what I needed for a very reasonable price, and in a nice container that protects the tools and makes them handily portable. When I arrived at the pickup dept., my purchase was two steps away. Ayesha tuned around, picked it up and handed it to me with a warm smile. I was back on the rod headed home in less time than it takes to say "Jack Robinson" or something like that.

Handy and sharp

Would Recommend

I don't do a lot of woodworking, but recently I was tasked with building a Pinewood Derby racer with my grandson. YouTube was helpful in finding the right tools for building and Lowe's had just what we needed. This set of Forstner bits came in very handy and I can actually see other uses for them in my future of hobby woodworking, what little there will be. They come in a handy storage case and are easy to use, even with my B&D battery power drill.

Awesome product

I've only used the 1 inch bit, but that thing bores like a champion! It's definitely worth the price!

Sharp bits, smooth cut, near effortless operation

Would Recommend

I needed to repair a cabinet door and wondered how they made those wide depressions where the hinges go. After discovering the answer online, I bought this set. The bits are sharp and durable. They cut quickly and easily. I was pleasantly surprised at how smoothly I could bore halfway through the cabinet door. The hinge fit perfectly, and my repair job looks great.

Worked as needed

Would Recommend

I picked up this set since I needed the largest size to clamp two butcher block countertops together. I always feel it is better to grab a set instead of just the size you need, since, you never know what might pop up. This set did exactly what I needed and was not too expensive.
