Does not work with all tip sizes
I couldn't wait to get these piping bags because I have been looking for reusable ones to save on the costs of buying disposable bags. I was also looking forward to the variety of tip sizes.However, the very first time I used them I needed to use the smallest point tip for some intricate cookie decorating. I easily followed steps 1-2 of inserting the first coupler part into the bag, cutting off the excess fabric, and insterting the tip. But when I tried to screw on the second coupler part (step 3), the base of the tip was too wide for the piece to slip over and fit into the other coupler. I tried it again with other tips and it seems to work okay with some of them that have smaller bases. I couldn't believe that the product didn't work the same for ALL of the tips!! It was extremely frustrating to not be able to use the full functionality of it. The attached image is step 3 (which doesn't work) and in the photo, the person's thumb is quite conveniently covering up the exact area that I am having the issue with!!The only reason I am giving it 1 star at all is because of the fact that they are reusable bags and came with many different tips. Extremely disappointed though.

DO NOT BUY THIS!
I don't often decorate cakes so didn't need anything fancy in a cake decorator set. However, this is NOT what I expected. The product is very cheaply made, even worse than one expects for the price. Several tips were substituted. The metal is so thin that two tips arrived crushed. Worse yet, the cheap plastic coupler that the tips go in don't work. One would not screw and unscrew at all. The other coupler the metal tip got stuck and could not be removed without great difficulty. This is useless. Not worth $10; not worth $5. I do not recommend this product.

Feel like a pro
I had so much fun once I got this set. I feel like such a pro. I watched a couple videos on how to ice cupcakes and just went to town. I feel like I have every kind of tip I'm ever going to want or need plus way more. It was easy to swap out the tips to try out different designs. I love having the reusable bags. Everything was easy to clean. One thing I do wish is that there was room for the bags inside the box. I feel like once I put in the slats and the tips, I couldn't really pack in the folded bags as there was very little space on top. I didn't want to squish them in in case they got ripped.

I'm a beginner!
First of all... this is my first time using cake decorating tools so I notice my errors. But, it was so easy to use and clean! My kids love the taste of my cakes but now they love the look too!!

A fantastic starter set for all kinds of confectionary decoration.
I love these tips because they do the job and then some. The ONLY thing that I wish they had included in this set were the LARGER tips that you can use to frost cupcakes in the blink of an eye with a big swirl and move on. I was able to make use of the smaller tips to FILL cupcakes with goodness that was hidden beneath the decorative frosting on top of the cupcakes I made and they cleaned up like a dream. I used disposable piping bags rather than the silicone reusable bags that were included in the set because I wasn't in the mood to take care of that, but with the decorating tools for flat cakes and the rose piping pick that they give you, you can let your creative muse loose! Plus,anything that doesn't LOOK quite perfect is still going to taste delicious! This is a great set and incredibly easy to use. Believe me, I had never used a piping bag or tips before I cracked into this set and people didn't believe that the cupcakes I made weren't store bought. They are really wonderful and the pricing was spot on.
