Quality Inexpesive Drill
My wife and I needed to hang a few more weighty items on the walls of our apartment. We don’t own very many tools and where apprehensive about purchasing a drill in lieu of borrowing one. For the price we felt we could justify the purchase, even if we only used it occasionally. I was expecting a drill of lower quality, much like you would find for sub $10 at a place like Harbor Freight. We where surprised at how sturdy it was built and how well it functioned.****************** PROS ******************- Made with quality materials. The parts that come into contact with your hand are made of a softer plastic, much like that found on a ballpoint pen with a grip, but of higher quality. I honestly believe I could use the butt end as a hammer given how strong the plastic is, but I of course don’t recommend this.- Very ergonomic, with reasonable reach to the Forward/reverse slider and Lock-on button, all with one handed use.- The chuck is easily adjusted and prevents over-tightening to the bit.- Comes with a Phillips/Flathead bit that will fit most common screws. There is a place to store the provided bit at the bottom of the handle- Very granular control of the variable speed switch, without this feature I would not have purchased this drill. Sometimes you need to start out slow when drilling in a screw, otherwise you may set a screw sideways, etc.- The Lock-on button allows you to set the drill to a specific speed without pressing the switch. This feature is especially useful for situations such as buffing out scratches on a car or using a small sanding attachment.- Anti fray housing where the cord meets the drill, there is nothing worse than having to ditch a drill or repair it yourself because of a now exposed and dangerous power cable- 2 Year Warranty with a 30 day money-back guarantee- Minimal packaging – Comes in a single box with the drill and a small and concise multi-lingual manual, no oversized box or messy cardboard padding.****************** CONS ******************- Like most drills, this has an open grill/air vent that cools the electric motor. I don’t feel comfortable using this outside during inclement weather given that I can see the components inside. For normal use, this should not even be a concern.- The drill bit stored in the holder at the bottom of the handle can poke your hand if held a certain way. If this is an issue, you can move the Flathead over to the left a bit and bear the less sharp Phillips tip, or you can remove the bit entirely.(just don’t loose it)- The drill is a bit heavy for one handed use and does not benefit from the weight of a battery pack to displace how top-heavy it is.In short, if you are looking for an inexpensive general purpose drill that is of quality, I would invest in this drill.**I purchased this product at full price and was not under any obligation to provide a review**Please stop removing my photos Amazon.

Strong power with minor flaw
This perfectly drills holes in my stud. Battery powered drills did not do a good job (unless you buy an expensive one). This one is very affordable.One flaw it has is the bottom slot where you put the drill bits. The provided bits is very sharp and hard to get it out. Easy to hurt yourself.

I am a electric drill man!
Works well and seems to be good quality for the handyman around the house projects. Not to heavy, but enough weight to where it does not seem cheaply made.

Excellent Product. Easy to Use.
If you’re live me your battery powered drill is always dead or dying when you most need it. I ordered this so I can always have a backup when the battery one dies. Plus it’s more powerful for those that need the extra oomph!

None replaceable chuck, first time I came across a drill where there is no release screw down the center of the chuck.

Muy buen taladro de uso casero, pese a no tener función de roto-martillo es bastante suficiente en casi cualquier uso normal que se le pueda dar en una casa, probablemente no sea la mejor opción como herramienta para trabajo profesional.
