Love it. Makes mildly difficult jobs a breeze. Has just the right amount of power and versatility I need. I highly recommend this product.
The angle adjustment is extremely useful although I wish it came with more bits. I have a joint hypermobility problem and can't deal with heavy objects for any length of time. This drill is light enough that I can work with it for more than short periods. It has a decent amount of power for smaller jobs, but have come across jobs that it just can't handle. Overall, I am very pleased with this drill.
Nice compact tool. Fits in some close quarters & makes a good Right Angle drill. Only flaw----Batteries might be scarce.
All my old manual screwdrivers were dull and ineffective so it was finally time to invest in new tools. The light doesn't go off when the battery is fully charged like so many other products' chargers do. It comes with a few starter bits, and they couldn't be easier to change out.
It was long overdue to get a power screwdriver, and I'm extremely pleased. I don't need to buy any additional components for this tool for my uses.The only other thing I could wish for is a better way to monitor battery charge. I used to avoid having to buy anything that required screws because I didn't want to deal with the strength required sometimes to drive the screws in as far as I want and calluses/blisters that would sometimes form on my palm from putting too much pressure manually.
It's powerful enough to deal with everyday jobs around the home, yet lightweight and easy to handle, which is all I need. Now I can't wait for reasons to need to use it. I'm a novice when it comes to electric/power tools and this was easy enough for me to figure out how to work with minimal perusal over the brief instructions included.
As it is, I charge the battery by counting down the hours and relying on B&D's opinion of how long it should charge for as stated in the instructions (3-6 hours), and not by the red light on the charger because the light does not seem to go off ever; the purpose of the light on the charger seems to be only to indicate that it's plugged in - not that the battery is still charging. Perhaps I'm missing something there.Good value overall.
It appears ideal for simple home operations and is a great addition to my toolbox. I also made steady use of it for the putting up of window treatments.
Further, I have never been asked to take part in any projects in which I had anything to do aside from digging or simple grunt work. Therefore, the other reviewers are far better qualified than I in regards to judging whether this drill is effective in diverse settings.
First of all let me say that I don't know anything about heavy industrial uses for a drill so I am not qualified to speak of such issues as I have never been a tradesman. It drilled holes perfectly for cabinet handles and cabinet knobs.
I bought mine strictly for home use. I just got a new condo and the 12V comes in handy for everything I need to do.
The model was reliable and I have no complaints. Also, considering that I got mine for 37 bucks--it's financially a good deal.
