Milwaukee 49-22-4185 All Purpose Professional Ice Hardened Hole Saw Kit 28 Piece

cuts good holes

I bought this set so I could quit going to Lowes and buying holes saws one by one. I finally had a reason to use this just yesterday. I needed to drill a 4 holes on some 2x12. The canter arbors are beefy and well built. They easily locked into the saw and locked into my drill. I am using a Dewalt 20V drill. I started drilling and as soon as the saw hit the wood, it bound and whipped the drill handle into the wall. Not what I was expecting. most of my other hole saws are Dewalt and do not have this problems. Once I got the saw really working - several bangs into the wall and having my hand forcefully spun around due to the binding - it worked well. The hole it made was smooth and nice. The wood puck as very easy to get out of the saw. The teeth showed little of no wear after 5 holes. Were it not for the binding, I would have given them 5 starts across the board.

I bought this set because I needed 4-1/8 hole saw. The description says its part of the 22 saws you get. Its not. Now I have to order it separately delaying my project. The hole saws are great, packaging awesome, value is top notch. Description is off and pictures need to be updated

I ordered this kit due to needing a couple different sized hole saw cutters to put in some dead bolts. I had purchased Milwaukee cutters prior to this but just purchased the individual cutter for the job at hand. I did decide to buy the 28 piece kit because I liked the idea of having all my cutters in 1 easy container to carry to a job and believe this kit will contain every cutter I will ever need. It does. It has every cutter size I needed and probably ever will need. The container is well built and appealing. I didnt know how the drive system to the cutters had changed since I purchased my last individual cutter. The new system has threads in the base of the cutter with 2 pins that are threaded into the cutter from the drive shaft that holds the drill bit. This is the best system Ive seen. I also believe these cutters will take many cuts through metal or wood before beginning to dull. Its a lot of money but its probably the last hole saw kit you will ever need unless you use them daily. Im very satisfied with this kit.

Showed up in a case about half the size of the one shown in the pictures, it’s a Milwaukee case but rather generic not molded like the one shown. I kind of like it better I think but don’t like surprises stop being lazy and post the actual picture of what I will receive

Came with a much cheaper case than pictured....as a lot of other reviews say. The case I got is very cheap and not what is pictured.

Good set of cutters but the case needs improved.

The case is not the same as in the picture. It is not nearly as good as the one in the picture.

Its disappointing that the product arrived in a different case than pictured on the website. The case in which the bits arrived is flimsy and does not keep things organized. Its basically like using an old, plastic lunchbox to carry around your drill bits. The robust-looking case was one of the reasons I selected this drill bit set. I already had a pile of hole saw bits but wanted to buy this set to have all of them in one organized location rather than digging through tool bags. Now Ive got a lunchbox of bits to dig through. Oh well, it was worth a try.

As many of the reviewers have already stated the product pictured in the listing is of the older set with a different case. The case you receive now is garbage, I bought this set knowing this. However, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the peg system panel in the bottom is removable along with the container for the loose drill bits. I have already bought into the Milwaukee PACKOUT storage system, so I bought the ”PACKOUT 5-Compartments Small Parts Organizer” for my set. I used some Polyethylene (PE) foam that I laying around to keep the hole saws organized and I recycled the “Container” that came with this set to store the loose drill bits. I am very happy with the way it came out! Milwaukee sells a “ready to go” PACKOUT Hole Saw Set, however the set only comes with 6 hole saws. It took some effort, but now I have 22 hole saws in the same storage foot print. At the end of the day thanks to Amazon’s pricing, in total I still have paid less than MSRP for this “28-Piece” set including the extra PACKOUT storage box.
