What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the drill bit's exceptional performance on ceramic, porcelain, and glass tile, reporting clean, chip-free cuts and efficient drilling. Most users highlight durability and minimal wear after multiple holes, though success depends on proper technique—starting at 45 degrees, using low RPMs, and continuous wetting significantly improves results. Some reviewers experienced bit bending or premature dulling, often attributing failures to improper handling rather than defects. Overall, most consider it highly effective for hard surfaces when used correctly.

Product was dull and took a very long time to get through a standard tile. Waste of money on this bit.
Don’t bother with this tool
Would Not RecommendJunk. Bought this to drill holes in porcelain tile. Less than halfway thru the first hole the bit had bent enough to make it useless. Took a long time to drill as well. Got a Lenox diamond bit and it went thru the next 3 holes like it was wood. Get the brand name!
