I bought this set in January of last year (for $65.58). I'm guessing that was a SD purchase? Regardless, this is an awesome set. I have used it around the house over the past couple of years and haven't had any issues with it. The quality is exactly what you'd expect from a $60+ set of bits and small handle.

It is a decent set, I have to Facom and got the Icon to compare and they are pretty close. Didn't torture test them but I kept the Facom because I prefer having sockets in the set.
Similar comparison to this set, the Wera includes sockets and the rapid bit holder. I actually like that bit holder a lot and use it with my milwaukee m12 screwdriver and makita xps bits. Works pretty nice because the collar is free floating so i can hold it with my left hand near the screw while my right hand controls the speed. Usually with electric drills you can't hold it near the fastener so you get more wobble.
One advantage on the facom and icon is the ratchet head pivots which is nice in tight spaces and the ratchet converts into a t-bar for extra leverage.
Facom R1PICO is not sold in US so you need to import from Amazon global
Between the three if i had to pick one for usefulness i would get the Facom R1PICO
If i didn't need sockets i would get HF Icon.
The Wera is a nice set. Quality on Wera is not what I would expect from their price point
I had some bits that had faded print for the sizes and one bit had no printing at all. I would expect etched at this price point. Also they changed the case design. It used to have a locking latch on the bits and now is just held by friction.

Edit: Looks like it has a clasp that's missing on mine.
