The Kreg Jig K4 comes in a nice carrying box (heavy duty cardboard) with a handle. It is compact. It comes with a "dust collection attachment". The kit contains the following: Kreg Jig K4, stepped drill bit & stop collar, 6" square-drive bit, starter screw se4t and starter plug set. It is lightweight and, I'm sure easy to use. Unfortunately, I had an arm injury and haven't been able to test this product out. I was able to take it out of the box and look it over and it does, indeed, come with all that it says it does. It can be used to "...build with wood - home improvements, bookcases & shelves, storage projects, furniture, outdoor projects, repairs and much more". It will work with solid wood and plywood. The thickness of the materials that it accepts range from 1/2" to 1 1/2" thick. It will clamp conveniently to a workbench. There is a toggle claim that holds the piece you are working with. It says it sets up easily with built-in guides, I can only take their word for that for now, but am not sure I could set it up with ease. They also claim that it works as a benchtop or portable jig. There are some nice illustrations on the box and with the little booklet that came with it showing how to use it, etc. I would recommend this tool.
