Agree -- it's like cable TV --- get 500 channels, watch only 10.
I have bought many kits like this but after losing, breaking or wearing out the few bits I actually use/need. I now just bought lots of the same bit. I mean everyone needs one do it all kit, but most of what are in these are never used.
The real standout in this set is a fairly complete set of hex driver insert bits. Metric and SAE are included, with 2x each size. Unfortunately, the metric side only goes down to 2.5mm. SAE side has 1/16 and 5/64, which can usually work for 1.5mm and 2.0mm, though.
There is a very complete set of uncommon Torx sizes, too - all the way up to T50. So if you have a need for those, then this is also golden.
I'd expect to pay $10 for the hex bits alone, so the rest is gravy for me. I don't like the case as much as the DeWalts, but the Milwaukee bits do seem to last longer.
If you don't need the more specialized bits, the 120pc set might be a better deal.

I got a couple of these to have floating around the house, bits are disposable but I'll have to get sets of commonly used bits (tons of Philips) instead of one these days.
I just got my set from the last order today. It contains duplicate Torx T-20, T-25, T-30 & T-50 bits. The hex bits are duplicate metric from 4, 5, 6. They seem very well made. Will find out durability soon enough.

Are you sure about the Torx sizes? The picture indicates only up to T50.

What seems borderline useless is the SAE allen bits. Metric would be better. I can't recall any specific application I used SAE allen bolts on...
