> 24 hourI ordered this bit in hopes it would give me a nice clean cut with my router table. First one spun the bearing off within the first two minutes of use. I ordered a replacement and the second one snapped in half and flew across the shop after trimming about 4 of 1/4 acrylic sheet. Avoid this one

> 24 hourUsing this bit in a router table with adequate dust collection. The top cut is nice and clean, but the underside cut is ragged. Even with the dust collection, it throws a lot of these shredded wheat shavings around. Causing me to have to stop and vacuum after every cut. Not great for time management. More expensive bits do not do this. For the money, it is sharp, it does cut and it gets the job done, but it adds time when you have to sand edges and clean up the mess.

> 24 hourBought this bit for routing 1/2 plywood from door and window openings with a Makita cordless router when were framing. It works great but you have to pay attention. It will grab pretty easy and want to get away from you. I would recommend this bit to anyone. Definitely worth the $$$ compared to a Whiteside bit.

> 24 hourIve owned 4 or 5 routers and done quite a bit of work with them over the years (albeit not in a commercial or professional setting). Ive never seen a bit do this. I was cutting through soft cedar, moving reasonably slowly and SNAP! Scared the chocolate out of me. I see that most other buyers have given this product a good review, so its very possible that I just got a lemon. But this is my first experience with this brand of bits and it will certainly be my last. I would go with something more reputable. Your safety is not worth $15 in savings.

> 24 hourUsed this to trim some veneer on speaker cabinets. Half way through the second one, I noticed a line in the veneer. Turns out that the bearing was dragging. I could feel when I spun the bearing by hand that it was getting hung up. I can’t recommend this

> 24 hourThis was a great bit for a time sensitive project but buyer beware the ring the holds the 2 top bearings on is only a press fit. with that being sad you can imagine the small ring will eventually come loose. The press fit is not tight and after a 5 mins of use the ring flew off and the bearings came loose. thankfully I caught this before it ruined the piece I wasnt working on or this review would be alot more negative. I knew this upon inspection of the bit when I received it but I didnt have many options so I gave it try. the bit is VERY sharp and cut through the materials with ease but I dont know how long this will stay sharp. all in all good priced product but again you get what you pay for.

> 24 hourI was pattern routing 1/2 and 3/4 Oak removing 1/32 stock to finish. The router bit did not cut smooth and ripped out chunks ruining several pieces before I gave up and purchased a similar bit made by Whiteside which performed perfectly. The Whiteside bit was almost twice the cost but worth every penny. I might add the guide bearing was faulty and I replaced it with one from another router bit. Very disappointed.
