    Short video review on the problems with the Makita bit set. The wobble in the bits is too much for me to recommend

    After about a month of ownership and use with my Makita BTD141Z Impact Driver, this product gets a mixed review.

    High Points:

    1. As others have mentioned, the variety of bits provided is relatively complete. Multiple lengths of the main driver sizes are appreciated.

    2. The case provided is compact, which is appreciated by anyone having to carry tools onto a job site or find room in a toolbox.

    3. The case's exterior locking mechanism is secure. I've never had mine open unexpectedly.

    Low Points:

    1. When using the black bit extension with the small 1" bits, my bits release from the extension rather than the fastener head after I drive a screw. This slows jobs dramatically, especially when the bit drops from the fastener and lands in grass. Further, the extension is impossible to quickly remove and replace within the case.

    2. I have had many issues with bits breaking. My 2" #2 Phillips bit... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars a solid companion to the Makia 10.8v Drill and Impact Driver, December 7, 2009

    This review is from: Makita T-01389 62-Piece Impact Drill-Driver Bit Set (Tools & Home Improvement)
    I have a Dewalt bit set that I've broken enough bits with, or lost that a replacement was due. When i saw this set show up on Amazon, I immediately put it on my wish list. This fills a perfect need for the Impact Driver and Drill set I already own from Makita. I do lots of small and medium home projects, and this has most of the bits you will need. If they added a a few hole saw bits, it would have everything, but otherwise complete. The bits are sharp and true unlike some cheaper sets which have a noticeable wobble in the smaller diameter pilot bits.

    Update: 4 months after "weekend warrior" projects, I have yet to experience any of the issues listed by other users. However, as I am not driving through hardwoods as an every day carpenter or doing exterior pressure treated woods, this may be the reason why. Also, Impact driving (when you should be using the drill) a small a 3/32 bit is going to break the piece no matter who makes it. Ive broke many small good and bad... Read more
