    if you are drilling a hole once in a blue moon i suppose so but not for somethimg that will be used on a regular basis.

    im a carpenter and I use them.

    they last one go . And can break very easy. But you get what you pay for.

    the expensive type dont last much longer to be honest. Before some one robs them out of your box or I lose them.

    bring on the cheap stuff..

    I've got a set of sawtooth and forstner bits from Lidl that I've had for ages, and they're still going strong.

    Decided against this set- can anyone recommend a good set at a reasonable price and where to get it from eg B&Q or Amazon.

    You should have bought them. None of them last long in the DIY market. you either loose them or buy cheap one's. the dear ones never actually pay themselves back for a diyer.

    as for rec from B&Q or amazon LIDL/ALDI would have been as good.

    If you want square holes, then yes, they are good.
