Black & Decker CDC180AK, Great for the price

Great for the price
Some things that aren’t in the description:
-The charger that it comes with is a cord plugs into the back of the handle, and it charges the battery while it’s attached to the drill. It uses the standard B&D removable 18V battery which can be charged in a seperate charger (that isn’t [...]

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. [...]
