Customer Reviews & Comments I bought this set, which includes a quick change chuck, origin unkown, quick change magnetic nut drivers- 1/4",USA and 5/16", USA, quick change drill bits,USA, quick change socket adapters- 1/4", China, and 3/8", Taiwan, quick change magnetic 1/4" screw guide, China, and an assortment of screw driver bits, origin unknown, to speed up my production on projects. All are stored in a locking clam shell case, which when flipped open reveals two locking storage compartments which have spacers to seperate the various bits. Nice case! It's made of durable plastic, everything locks up, and gives you a convenient little package in which to store all your small bits and driver accessories. The "accessories" which came with this kit leave something to be desired. The quick lock chuck is fine. It appears to be of decent quality (origin unknown) and doesn't have too much slop when inserting a bit. By the way, it's too big to fit in the clam shell case. The bits on the other hand come from at least three different countries! The USA, Taiwan, and last and certainly worst, "the great land of China." I have nothing against the people of China but their tools ... - bad metallurgy and bad tolerances. I apologize if I have offended anyone: I'm passionate about quality. Anyway, when I looked at the packaging before buying this Dewalt kit, the package said "Made in the USA". So I bought with confidence. Silly me! I prefer American, German, and Swiss tools. Unfortunately, the quick change drill bits 1/16" to 3/16" were stamped USA and looked pretty roughly manufactured: they were dull, had a "painted on" appearing finish, and didn't fit snugly into the quick change chuck. The hex ends of these drill bits are not steel: a magnet won't hold them. Maybe they are aluminum? This was a disapointment to me. I expected better quality, especially from something that is supposedly made in the USA. The bits made in China and Taiwan and "elsewhere" fit in the chuck fairly snuggly, but their finish and appearance are a little rough, and I have doubts about the durability of the steel in these bits. Several of them are already developing rounded, "chewed out," edges, and this is only from light use. Dewalt, what is happening to you? Your quality is going down hill and then you deceive the public through false labelling. So the end result is that I like the case and chuck, that's where the three stars come from (actually I would rate this kit as 2 1/2 stars if I could) but consider most of the bits and drills in this kit to be throw away junk. ...
