My husband loves these.

Limited use so far. Seem strong, but used on softer wood. Accurate.

Edited.

On first use they seemed OK, but soon I had one of the guide bearings fall off, which cost me in raw material worth more than the bits.

I replaced the bearing with a drop of medium strength lock-tite, and they have been good since so far. So long as you take that step, they seem to be good. A few of the screws holding the bearings on in the set seemed to be easily removed, so I would expect that this problem would have happened to more than one in the set, however they have been good with the drop of thread lock.

Cutting performance wise, they seem to do well with birch and maple, or plywood with some care. There isn't much for scorching and they leave a reasonably clean edge, so the cutting edges themselves seem to be decently sharp and hard.
