What Customers Are Saying
Most customers praise these bits for sharp performance and excellent value, particularly for light drilling tasks like pilot holes in wood or plastic. However, nearly a quarter report sudden breakage during use, especially under impact or when drilling harder materials like aluminum or angle iron, with some warning of flying shards. Reviewers who experienced breakage recommend using only in a drill press rather than handheld impact drivers. Despite durability concerns, many find them dependable and inexpensive for intended applications, with some reporting long-term success on repeated projects.

Absolute Trash
Would Not RecommendSanpped from few uses on simple cabinets wood. Plus it's not straight, the bit is crooked. I would like to get a refund. I'm never buying anything Kobalt again.
From 2 -Piece 7_SLASH_64-in Titanium Coated HSS Jobber Length Twist Drill Bit
"Cute" idea, but not so good.
Would Not RecommendI bought these to make the holes on soft, non-precious stones (for a bracelet that broke) more uniform. (That manufacturer has major Quality Control issues.) One bit worked on several stones, then stopped on another stone. The second bit didn't work either. -- And... I can't resharpen them in my "Drill Doctor," because of the "adapter" thingey swaged on the shank of the bits. -- The Drill Bit manufacturer WASTED the extra metal for the adapters.

If you are on the fence this bit will save you tim
Would RecommendWent throug the metal like butter. My old bits sucked.
Eh drill bit I would pass
Would Not RecommendMaybe I was using it too hard or it didn't quite fit the different drills I used; but I was getting the same issue where the part in the drill (silver/grey portion) would spin with the drill but the actual bit would not spin/drill.
