Worst experience I have ever had spending $500. Got the order and was shorted part of it. Tried to use the first 2 drill bits and they won’t even go through wood. They’re bent from the Mfg, they’re all about 1/32 out of true so the hole ends up 1/32 bigger than you need for the first 6 bits in the largest set available. Called them and a rude lady said too bad. You’re not getting what we shorted you and it didn’t sound like the bits were for me. I’ve turned wrenches for 30+ years but evidently I can’t run a drill. I was at recommended rpm on drill as well. She was a real tool herself. Avoid this scam.

I purchased the 6" heavy diamond HDII. The quality of the material is very strong, but unfortunately it takes 4-5 times longer to cut a piece of pipe than a standard metabo blade. It also has such a wide cut and leaves an enormous amount of material build up on the inside of the pipe. It seems like it "peels" the material back more than a clean cut. This might be great for other materials, but for carbon steel, stainless steel, and duplex it does not meet my satisfaction.

Could not be happier for the most part. The unit showed up quickly, and it is a solid piece of kit. The cutting is exceptional, and the included spare parts are a solid extra given by Bad Dog. I was not happy with the surface rust on my cutter however. I would think prior to shipping the unit would at least be inspected? Similar to the drill bits I purchased from BD; they did not fit into the storage box, so it was forced closed. Nitpicking? Yes. But at this price point, I would think the QC and customer service would be better. Some companies set the standard (HTP Welders, Baja Designs for example). Some just kind of limp along I guess. Also I should have purchased the BD clamping device from the get go, that was my own fault.

Used Flange Disk 4.5 hDII to cut up an old mobile home trailer frame. Cuts 1/8" material well but wears fairly fast. Ordered another to tackle the 1/4" frame. I was told to go slower and let the Flange Disk cool every few inches and it should be fine. I will see soon. Overall, I am pleased so far. Wish it would last longer though.

I was at a trade show 4 or 5 years ago, they were drilling through brake rotors, tile, and brick simultaneously, but when I saw them drill through a steel file with a 1/8" bit, then price was no longer a consideration. The first tool I grab for the tough jobs. BDT is BA!

Just purchased a set of drill bits from them, great people to talk to and very fair with pricing. I haven't used them to much yet but bought them for a job we needed to remove four cap head bolts on that nothing else in the shop would touch, including heating the heads and trying to drill, we received the bits two days after ordering them this morning, put the bit in and within twenty minutes the bolt heads were gone!! These are great! I also own the 4.5" and 2.5" grinding wheels, they are fantastic as well!! Don't hesitate at all!! If you use them how they are designed to be used you will love them!! Just wanted to add to this, I have been using the bits in my shop now for special situations that a normal drill will not even touch, I did end up breaking about 7 or 8 of them so far and we wore the grinding disc out, I called the other day and spoke with a very nice lady who told me no problem just send them back, include a return label and that there would be no cost to me at all, I received all new drills and a new blade back after about four or five days which is the time it took UPS to deliver and return them to me. She had some suggestions for us to try so we could get some more life out of the bits but not one question or problem with the condition of the old bits. All in all an excellent company to deal with, I have no idea where the bad reviews are coming from but from my experience I was blown away. (And the drill bits WILL get you out of a jam, im talking drilled out broken taps, set screws, hardened steel pins, things that just do not drill ... ever .. )

Excellent products!!!!!! Drill bits work great, just follow the RPM guide on the lid and they'll cut like BUTTUH! Called about a warranty Jessica & Sarah were very helpful. The HDII disc is great to have for cutting flashing and tight corners, and once you wear it out they replace it for you. You have to cover the shipping but it's well worth it!!! Awesome tools and customer service is always great!

Do not under ANY circumstances fall for these people's floozy products. Saw them at the Big E with their drill bits. They showed them drilling through metal and very thick material so easily like no other tool I've seen. I'm a mechanic so I thought it was a great product that I needed for my shop. Spent $106 and the first time I use them THE BIT BENDS IN HALF! THEY DO NOT WORK AT ALL. If I am not refunded I am doing a charge back. Absolutely do not buy from this company and warn anyone you know not to either. Craftsman drill bits work 100x better then this JOKE of an item. Update: What a hilarious response trying to blame me for your failure of a product. You shut facebook posts and reviews off for your company... why? Cause everyone would post what a scam you are but you can't hide google. I'm a mechanic of 40+ years trying to say I don't know how to use a drill is just flat out comical. Will 100% be returning and refunding.

I sent back my two sets of bits for sharping or replacement. I was told at a show they are guaranteed, just pay for shipping. Well just not true, they said it would cost $55.00 . I said for what, it only cost me $11.00 to send to you. Shipping and handling charges. Now I would have $66.00 to get them back. I said you can keep them and I will see you at the show! I will certainly advise against a purchase for this reason and they do not preform like they say and show, period. I am a commercial contractor for 40 years and would never waste my money again. I thought for price of shipping maybe I would get a better product back. The bits just do not hold up under normal use like they claim.

I have been using many of your fine tools for years. I have purchased the saw blade, 1/2 inch router bit set, the drill bit set, and the forstner bit sets. After having used them for years, I have found them to be of excellent quality. Excellent warranty! I would and have recommended them to others. I never miss the chance to see the rep at the Tampa tool show, Chris
