'Straight shank for smooth penetration'

General rule of thumb when buying tools. If it has everything in one box it's aimed at the occasional DIYer and the brand is eye candy.
Sets like these will never be as good as buying the individual components/sets individually.
There is a reason why this is £16 whereas one masonry bit could be £4 on its own.

I agree with this.

I have worked most of my life in the Construction Industry and in my experience it's always better to buy the one or two individual tool(s) you need when you actually need them (and make sure they're of good quality) rather than buy lots of tools you don't need on the off chance you might need some of them one day.

Ok, it all looks nice and tidy in the box, but when you finally use a few of the pieces from the box and they either break or struggle to do the job, it will become apparent why people like me say this.

Irrespective of whether they're for DIY use, in my opinion if you plan to do a quality job, do it safely (and with minimal effort) then always get a good quality tool to do it.

I have had one of these for a couple of years now, it's OK for light diy work, normally sells for £19.99 so it's a decent price.

looks like a good deal might get one . heat. :man:

good find op, heat added

I have one of these. Agree with furbars, good selection, reasonable quality and great DIY kit for the price. heat.

I have had this set for a few years.
All good apart from the holesaws fall out every time you open it. Drives me barmy

Likewise have one (in a white case) for keeping at work for odd jobs, only thing of note worth mentioning is I found the masonry bits to be pretty poor considering, otherwise it's all good.

This!
