Pros & Cons
Pros
Price is right! Wish they had ring to keep them together and organized but not a big deal since they come in a little ziploc bag. Awesome price, great deal. Higher quality kit.
Set up your own guitar. Follow the available tutorials. I'm just a beginner, but i know enough to do a basic set-up. These work great at a fraction of the price at stew-mac.
Cons
The fretboard radius gauges seem to be ok but they aren't the most important part of the set, imo. The etching is just a sticker on the metal. Burrs everywhere and the gage was printed off by about.
Highlights
Quality
No rough edges and they are sturdy.
Easy to use and read and measurements seem very accurate when measured against my engineers ruler.
The action gauge is inaccurate, as others have reported, with overly large or small gaps between the edges and the measurement lines.
10 minutes with these and you can have your guitar dialed in.
Price
These work great at a fraction of the price at stew-mac.
Learning to do your own setups will save tons of money, so this inexpensive kit seems like a great deal.
Instead of paying someone $80-$120 for a one time setup on your guitar, you can learn to do it your self.
You don't need to spend a fortune on these to help get your bridge saddled and action adjusted.
Shipping
They were from stewmac and cost me $50 including shipping.
Competitiveness
Compared to some trusted tools, as you can see, this tool can not be used to measure things accurately.

They need dulling around the edges which takes about 5 minutes with a file or sandpaper
