seems to be of good quality.
Amazon Customer•April 2, 2018
I haven't used it yet. seems to be of good quality.
Arrived broken, found same thing for less than half elsewhere.

2 stars because it arrived broken in an obviously already opened and reclosed package. If anyone is wondering you can buy the exact same jig from harbor freight for about $30. No joke, exact same. That's what I did. Works well enough once you get it dialed in. Great for drawers and and small boxes but it does have it's limits.
Good joints after fixing clamping issue
PA DIY•March 21, 2017
This company definitely has quality control or design issues. I couldn't get a tight clamp on the fence or template (plastic knobs) so disassembled it. This issue seems to be a reoccurring theme in the reviews but is easily fixed.
I found the t-nut heads all stick up above the slotted bracket (item 11). See my photo. T-nut slotted section height is 0.113 in and the slotted bracket is 0.098 in thick. It's impossible to develop any clamping force because you're clamping the t-nut to the knob threads, not bearing the t-nut face against the slotted bracket. I filled down the head of the t-nuts (slotted end) until I had a 1/32 clearance between the head of the nut and bracket. Took about 20 minutes to do all 4. Plastic knobs secure after 1/4 past snug after filing the nuts. Side stops (items 13) have the same issue but are able to clamp if you really crank on them. I'll file them down later on.
I cut 6 practice joints from scrap wood tonight testing it out and built a small box. I'd never cut dovetails before. I was meticulous with my setup and the joints went together without any issues. Setup is reasonably quick once you do it once a few times.
I recommend this but beware of may take some creativity and effort to figure out. You're cutting dovetails so don't expect to just magically do it without some effort and thought. I didn't want to try the HF clone because they've bit me a few with junk. This is good for hobby woodworkers like me.
