Be very very careful using anything which is just a glorified ezy-out. The "ezy" in that name only applies if the broken stud comes out easily. If it doesn't then you can change "ezy-out" to "hard-in" when the ezy out snaps and you are left with a mixture of broken stud and broken ezy-out.
A lot of mechanical guys positively hate ezy-out type tools for these reasons.
I think these tools sell well because for people not in the know they make the process look so easy and straight forward, and the seller never seem to mention about the tool snapping off when a stud doesn't just "fall out".

Thanks for the tip beefy.
They do look well fastened so this may not be the way to go.
Yet to have a crack at it guys - A little manic with work which hasn't given me the time to try sort it out.
Really appreciate the feedback here - it's been a lot better on this side of the woodworking forum fence than the timber side!

There is a type of eziout that is drilled in reverse IE a left handed drill bit with a grabbing action.
