Works great, but some knowledge of materials needed.
Barry S Mitchell•November 19, 2017
I bought a couple packs of these because I wanted a quality insert in which I could mount some leveling feet for some lamps.
The wood was to be light oak (hard). I first went through the route of using their insertion tool with a variable speed drill. That didn't work so well and you can see by the last picture. The hole was as recommended (25/64) but the wood turned out to be too hard and it is near impossible to keep the action perpendicular. This resulted in angled insertion and a good bit of slips (scalloping) on the machined slots.
I then decided I needed a drill press (just for the perpendicular action and a means to keep pressure on it while turning). I also added some pure silicon to the insert threads before inserting. In the end, I got what I really needed and like the job very much. Just check the softness/hardness of the wood, use something that can keep the action perpendicular and it will turn out fine. (I hand turned the drill press pulley - no election motion).

Quality Part

Quality item. You must size your hole according to the wood hardness and grain. Recommended.
Worked well in white oak for me

Worked fine in 3/4 inch white oak. I used a 1/4" bolt with a jam nut to drive them in, my only comment is to be sure the pilot hole id perpendicular to the board surface, so it drives in straight.
So So. . .

Work as described, but threading them into MDF, required a 1/32 bigger bit then instructed, and the soft brass material breaks SO easily. Have about a 50% success rate with threading them in, and NOT breaking the groove for the Phillips screw driver to fit into.
Happy with this purchase
