I purchased these because I wanted to use a non-breadboard-friendly chip (the ESP8266, among others) with my breadboard. Instead of crafting a breakout board, now I just use the female to male cables: the chip's pins go into the female side and I can place the male end wherever I want on the breadboard.
What I like most about these cables is that they're connected ribbon-cable style. You can peel them to use individually, or keep a strand connected for convenience. For example, I used a connected strip (black-brown-red) with a medium sized potentiometer. The wires stay with it, so any time I need to use a potentiometer in my prototype I can just plug it right in. The fact that the wires stay together makes it more stable and less of a mess.
The female-to-female cables are also useful for connecting pins on one chip to pins on another. In some cases this can conserve breadboard space. The male-to-male are just standard jumper cables. The plastic end of each cable is a bit loose, but all connections are secure. These cables would make a good starter kit, or simply a nice addition to your existing collection, to have a more appropriate selection of connection types.
