I have this set right in front of me. If you need a bit to pickup screws, just put on the 1/4" magnetic booster (lower left corner in the picture) first and then the bit. It is so easy. There are 2 more holders (lower right corner in the picture) also magnetic to help holding the bit. The set is definitely an upgrade from I had before (cheap ones from Home Depot and Lowes).
I'm using this kit as my everyday work kit. I've been using one almost 1 year and NO ONE piece is got damaged yet. This guys are working some days by 4 hours non-stop and destroying all screws heads if your power tools have too much torque lol
I REALLY could recommend it for everyone with this price!!!
Bought this last slickdeal for the same price and was one of the original OP's. Wouldn't buy it again after using it for a few months. The bits aren't magnetic and some of the flat head tips have already broken. I was expecting better quality for Makita

Would a home owner need impact rated bits for the occasional use? I have a Bosch 12v drill/driver combo tool.

These are known as some of the best bits on the market, I definitely wouldn't call them crap. My only complain about this set is why not include metric hex bits in place of the Phillips duplicates.

As a homeowner, I use in impact driver and a regular drill. The impact bits are a lot more robust, but if you aren't using an impact driver, then probably don't need impact bits. The force an impact driver imparts is much more than torque from a regular drill which is why you need impact rated bits so they don't break.

I have no idea if these ones are any good, but the cost of impact rated drill bits is pretty much on par with non-impacted rated bits, so better to just by impact rated ones when on sale.

I've really liked my Bosch impact bits. Also, Milwaukee is supposed to make good ones. Both of these you can find in $20 sets when on sale. I'm sure we will be seeing a lot more deals on power tools and accessories as we get closer to BF. I'd hold unless you really need something now.

I have the makita 45 piece and equivalent Bosch set. I prefer the bits in the makita set. They are excellent quality. I have been using them regularly for almost two years. They are all still functional. As the previous poster stated, there is no need to have all magnetic bits. It's actually counterproductive for smaller bits. Magnetic holder plus regular bit does the trick. At 20 bucks, no brainer if you need a set.

The bosch are excellent as well. I just prefer the variety that came with the makita set. Just personal preference... Not that I can tell one is objectively better. I have used the Bosch far less though as a result. If that set came around for 20, I'd jump on that if I needed a set as well.
