Also have a set like that. Just a Total one.

There was even a nice looking bosch set on amazon for like R650 which was attractive but I saved the moolah rather since this kit is not likely to see that much use and should do the job.

Do the bits actually last more than a use or two?

For the drill bits, no, they don't.. have tried these drill bits for pilot holes as well as self centring ones and they go dull in two three uses..

that is my worry, i bought the odd one or two before from the china mall and you might as well use a soft weiner to try drill a hole.

I don't even bother trying to use them in steel, even genuine high quality Somata HSS bits can struggle into many steels but for wood/plastic and perhaps aluminium they are fine.
