Greater than one weekI bought these Yonico router bits due to their quality for price. High grade finish and build. It did not burn the wood and leaves a clean, crisp and smooth cut.

> 3 dayThe bits come in a beautiful sturdy wood box. The carbide is very high quality and brazing is very clean on each bit of my set. The non-stick yellow coating is applied clean and even. The bearings are high quality and bolt down well and secure on to the shaft of the bits. The name on the shaft is put on neatly on each bit of the set. There was also an surprise coupon in the packaging for future purchases!. Bits run very well on the router and perform very well hand held or on the table. I have routed many feet of MDF, plywood and soft woods like pine. The bits route clean and there is no strain on the router, I feel that I was able to route my stock a lot quicker than with my lonely old round over bit this set replaced. I had only one scrap of poplar to try for hardwood and it did just fine. Tips: 1) as soon you receive the bits inspect them. 2) be very careful removing them from the box as the carbide will cut your fingers and you see it before you feel it. 3) inspect and clean the bits to remove the manufacturing sticky stuff. 4) The carbide edges on the smallest three bits can touch at their widest point when inserting in the box. Take care to stagger the edges so they dont touch. Update: I had an issue with one bearing and emailed customer support. I got a response in a couple of hours and they only asked for a picture of the errant bearing and mailed out a new one the same day. Thats good customer service. The feel good part of this event is that in the initial response, Jonathan the CSR advised that all the bits of the set have the same size bearing and I can swap them to finish my project in time. Saved my weekend. Thats thoughtful customer service. To watch the this brands bits in action view the review by WoodWorkWeb on youtube.

> 3 dayThis Yoniko Roundover bit is excellent. I am new to using a router (not to wood working) and was able to use it within 20 minutes of practice to make this oak display stand for my flintlock. I have to admit, I did watch a few You Tube videos first but I was surprised how fast and easy it was to shape the edge of a piece of oak wood. This is a sharp bit and it cuts effortlessly. Highly recommend.

Greater than one weekI needed this for one job and it worked great. I don’t use these much, but it worked great. No burn marks on wood or tool after using it. As little as I will use these why pay more. I ran these on about 50ft of boards looks as good as the high dollar bit would have done.

> 3 dayUsed it to soften the edges on hard maple picture frame moldings and was satisfied with the results;branded name bits would not have done any better especially when $15 of their cost is shipping....

> 3 dayI replaced all of my deck railing caps using 2 X 6s, but I wanted nice rounded edges on the top. This was my first time using a router so I wasnt sure exactly what I was in for. I borrowed my neighbors because I dont own one. I watched a few videos first and read all of the information. First I tried his 1/2 roundover bit, but it didnt produce enough of a radius for my liking, so I purchased the 3/4. I am so pleased with the way it turned out. The edges are smooth and consistent throughout. Using a palm sander afterwards made it look even better. I did not experience any problems at all with the bit. There was a total of about 80 linear feet of 2 X 6 caps that were all being rounded over on both edges. The bit was still just as sharp at the end of the project as it was at the beginning. Couldnt ask for more.
