Great price and superb quality

Finally broke down and got an impact driver to complement my more traditional cordless drill. As such, I wanted to get a set of compatible bits. This set fit the bill nicely - there's sufficient variety for the projects I do, they're Makita-branded so I'm confident that they'll last (and they've done just fine thus far), and they come in a convenient and compact case. It's exactly what I was looking for to accommodate most/all of my project needs with my new driver.

After purchassing a 3/8 inch impact drill, I found I was tearing up all the driver bits I had that were not rated for such use. I purchased these Makita impact bit set and could not be happier. These bits have held up to anything and everything I've used them on. There is a large assortment of bit sizes to choose from, so picking the right size allows you to really hold screws without strip outs. The small shank size allows maneuvering in tight places. Really a good buy for the money.

First of all, let's talk about the variety. This kit comes with a whopping 60 pieces, which is fantastic because it covers pretty much all the different types of screws and bits I encounter in my projects. Whether it's Phillips, Torx, square, or even hex, this set has got me covered. And the best part is that each piece feels really sturdy and well-made. I've had some bad experiences with cheap, flimsy bits that would snap after just a few uses, but these Makita bits seem like they can take a beating.

The impact-resistant design is a total winner. I've used these bits with my impact driver, and they've held up really well. No chipping, no signs of wear and tear even after some heavy-duty use. It's clear that Makita put some serious thought into making these bits durable, and it shows.

Another thing I love is the bit holder included in the set. It's got a strong magnetic grip, which is super handy when I'm trying to reach into tight spots or overhead. Plus, it keeps the bits neatly organized, so I don't have to go rummaging through my toolbox every time I need a specific size.

I also want to mention the precision fit of the bits. When I attach them to my screws, they fit snugly without any wobbling. This means fewer stripped screws and less frustration for me. Plus, the tips seem to have excellent grip, which really helps when I'm working with tougher materials like metal or hardwood.

One small downside I noticed is that the case could be a bit sturdier. Don't get me wrong; it's functional and keeps the bits in place, but I feel like it might not withstand rough handling or accidental drops. So, I'll probably be a bit more cautious with that.

Overall, I can confidently say that the Makita E-01644 Impact XPS 60 Piece Impact Bit Set has been a fantastic addition to my toolkit. As an average IQ person, I appreciate tools that are reliable, easy to use, and that make my projects go smoothly. This set ticks all the right boxes, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch bit set. Happy DIYing!

High quality, not made in China. Works as expected except the bit adapter is extremely tight. In addition to the magnet, there is a retaining ring, which holds the bit very tightly. This is great when going from screw to screw and your bit doesn't stay on the previous one. It is less great when switching the bits. Let's just say it's a feature, not a bug - it definitely has a positive side.
