Great little tool
Really useful. Some might think it is more expensive in comparison to other options, but this is a sturdy metal jig with a toggle clamp that holds it in position, it self positions with the built in recess. I received a mini tool kit to adjust the clamp and a collet to set the cutting depth. Really easy to use with excellent results really good value for money when it gives you the results.Highly recommended.

Great jig for concealed hinge holes
Sturdy, easy to set up and worked well. Saved me a lot of time fitting cupboard doors. well worth the cost.

Great piece of kit that allows for accurate holes
I’ve just finished cutting 72 holes and have another 72 planned and feel confident that I won’t need another dowel jig for a long time. This jig allows for accurate holes to be cut, time after time, and is much more accurate than the super cheap, plastic jigs (which is what I bought first and was useless). This jig is very sturdy and well made, and gives you a few different options and ways to use it.It comes with the relevant wood cutting drill bits, which were actually better made than some Bosch bits I was going to use.There are some gripes which prevent it being a 5 start product.1) No instructions included. Granted it’s not hard to figure out, but instructions wouldn’t have gone a miss and would definitely benefit some DIYers.2) There’s a measure on the side which goes up to 4.5cm. This is useful as you set half the width of the wood and can cut central holes. However 4.5cm being on the side implies the jig can open up to accommodate wood up to 9cm, which is not the case. The biggest piece of wood you can fit in the jig is 5.5cm in width. Not that you’d often need to drill holes in a 55mm width of wood, but I’ll be using it to cut off-centre holes in 45mm width wood and it’s about 1mm too small (not an issue for my use case though). There might be a way to take it apart to accommodate larger pieces, but with no instructions I’m not sure. It should say somewhere on the item page the largest piece of wood it can accept.3) It’s not the easiest thing to clamp down. It’s a bit of a weird shape and took a bit of creative thinking with window packers, scrap wood, and camps to get it solidly in place so it wouldn’t budge between pieces of wood.Despite what I’ve mentioned, I would definitely recommend this jig. You might get away with one of the cheap plastic ones if you’re doing some rough, quick work, but I had a lot holes to drill and needed something to help me cut accurately over and over again.

Excellent value for money
I had been struggling with one of the many cheaper hand held dowelling jigs and decided to give this one a go. This is in a different league to the aforementioned plastic versions. It has a reassuring heft and rigidity and the clamp ensures the jig stays in place when drilling. I have been able to get extremely accurate results from this.

Nice
When you have to hang 12 kitchen doors you just made this is the perfect time saver, good solid build, would recommend, Ex carpenter.

Limited options
Looks great and feels solid. However, the guides for determining the thickness of the wood should have been notched, I would recommend testing on a "waste" piece of wood first. The drills don't seem to cut it, literally. They work but are poor, had to replace them with my own stock. There is no "bookend" to have a consistent distance from an end. Lastly and perhaps trivial, I found and agree with several other reviewers, that the turning wheel is problematic. Beforehand I was sure my problem would be deciding 4 or 5 stars, but it was between a 3 and 4 star. I have since noticed options elsewhere, with more features, but unlikely to critique as how often are these tools needed?

Einfach praktisch
Sicherlich gibt es auch günstigere Möglichkeiten, aber dann sind sie entweder nicht so wertig und lange haltbar oder umständlicher zu benutzen. Hiermit habe ich schon viele Topfschaniere gesetzt und bin richtig zufrieden. Klare Kaufempfehlung!!
