Black & Decker AS600, Great Cordless Screwdriver..

Great Cordless Screwdriver uses regular AA batteries
Here’s what I like about this electric screwdriver:
1. Unlike most Black & Decker electric screwdrivers, this uses four standard AA batteries. This means that you don’t have to worry about using B&D re-chargeables that are always dead when you need them. I load mine with Eneloop [...]

Hitachi DS18DVF3 18-Volt, A lot of bang for the buck

A lot of bang for the buck
Although the batteries do not seem to last very between charges, there are two of them in the kit along with a quick charger. The specified torque is impressive, but I think that it may be slightly exaggerated. The ergonomics, weight, and overall dimensions are nearly ideal. [...]

DEWALT DC984IA Heavy, Hammerdrill/ Impact Combo

Hammerdrill/ Impact Combo
This is an excellent buy from Dewalt. The Quality of the XRP tools is superb. Right out of the box I was impressed with the look of the tools. I am a woodworker and the impact driver is a real handy tool. Since I’ve been using the impact driver, [...]

Black & Decker PP360, Very Good Screwdriver

Very Good Screwdriver
I have a Denali rechargeable screwdriver set which I like, but the screwdriver doesn’t have much power. This one beats it hands-down. The rotating drive feature works fine, but I haven’t found a situation where it makes much difference. The important thing for me is that the screwdriver is powerful [...]

Black & Decker DR650 6.5, $75 Junk

$75 Junk
I bought the drill because I knew I would use it quite infrequently. The drill sat in the box for 6 months before I used it. I used the drill in hammer mode twice with no problems. The first time I used it in normal mode the gearbox blew up! I was drilling through [...]

Makita BTD142HW 18-Volt, Still “My new favorite..

Still “My new favorite tool.”
I’m a lead carpenter for a residential remodeler. I’ve owned 11 cordless drills over the years (currently I have 4) and this Makita is not only the best of the bunch, by far, it may be the best power tool I own. I’ve had it for about a month now and [...]

Makita 6347DWDE 18-Volt, Great value at this price,..

Great value at this price, get it while you can
When I first saw the 18-volt powerhouse Makita 6347DWDE drill at this price — which doesn’t even include the significant manufacturer’s rebate — I thought it was too good to be true and quite possibly a misprint. I had to re-read the description and the fine [...]

Panasonic EY6409GQKW, Best Drill you will ever..

Best Drill you will ever buy!
After going through a couple of medium priced off the shelf drills that either locked up or were too heavy to use comfortably in a days work this one proved to go the distance! Lightweight, very quiet, easy to use, and super powerful! One year old and going [...]

Hitachi DS18DL 18-Volt, New technology - best drill..

New technology - best drill ever!
I have purchased several brands of battery powered drills for installing electrical lines in new construction, so I tend to use my cordless drills more than most. This Hitachi is hands down the best I’ve ever used. Not only the superior torque, but the battery life is incredible. [...]

Makita 6935FDWDE, True variable speed

True variable speed
Makita has two 14.4 impact drivers on the market. The older one is the 6932 and the newer the 6935. While both are priced about the same, the older is widely promoted packaged with a drill/driver unit. I chose to forgo the allure of a free drill/driver unit and [...]
