First off, I recognize the trade offs when purchasing 'most' aftermarket heads. You're always making a trade-off between quality and price. I purchased these heads to build an inexpensive travel set for myself. I paired them with UST IRN graphite shafts and some $2 grips that I like. My out of pocket cost was about $40 a club, when everything was factored in. That brought this set of irons to $280 for the 5i-PW, AW. I added the Heater H-9 "Spin Wedges" for the SW and LW (more on those in another review). The iron heads look even better in person than in the pictures. I first checked the faces, to be sure they were flat (a problem with many lower cost aftermarket heads). All was fine there. Next, I checked the weights against the stated specs and tolerances (+/-2 grams). I found all of the heads to be heavy v.s. the specs, with a few that were 4-5 grams heavy. Next, I checked the lofts. Every one of them was exactly 2° strong, so I had to bend them back to spec. Once I ran all the numbers, I would have ended up having to add 2 grams to the 8 iron and 4 grams to the PW to get the head weight spacing correct, but I hate putting tip weights in graphite shafts, so I just did a little math and made the shaft tipping adjustment, so they played to the correct flex. I then spined and FLO'd the shafts and assembled them. Swing weights were consistent, in the D-1 to D-3 range. I haven't hit these yet, but will report back with my findings. I suspect they'll be more forgiving than the description states.
