 Does what I need it to, but wish it had a bit more power July 27, 2010
A. Huynh
The title kinda says it all. I do low voltage data cable work and I use this product to detach and install internet jack face plates from the walls. This item is ALMOST perfect for me but I wish it had just a bit more torque and power. As it is, I know it'll never go too fast to crack a face plate but the screws still go in a bit too slow.
Upon reading several reviews on Amazon, this is the only Black and Decker item of this type I would buy since I now don't trust this company's rechargeable batteries. The AA's that these use is perfect for me since I already have my own rechargeables.
 Great tool July 18, 2010
Weagle (GA)
I have somehow ended up with 3 of these through moving several times. Got my first one back in the 90's, and it still works great. Being able to put new batteries in once it starts to slowdown is great when I have a lot of stuff to screw in (like rooms worth of Ikea funiture). It takes all the standard driver pieces from any multi-driver, so I use it instead of the little allen wrenches that come with ikea/saunders furniture.
flawless for well over 5 years May 7, 2010
PhD, MA, Maa, Maaaa! (Los Angeles)
I am a contractor but bought this for home use (of course) and anyone who has used one knows just how handy they are. This particular one was shockingly good. I used it quite a bit over 5 years and it just never stopped going. I actually prefer, in this instance, the fact that it takes ordinary AA batteries (4) because the rechargable packs don't last and they are too expensive. Anyways, if u want to, of course u hv the option of using rechargable AA.
 Great screwdriver May 1, 2010
Landon Ashby (Houston, TX)
First off, this is NOT rechargeable. It runs off two AA batteries. Of course you could use your own rechargeables but you get the point.
That being said, I really like that fact because when it runs out of juice, you just pop in new batteries rather than having to charge it. I've owned a lot of powered screwdrivers before and I like some better but this one is still great.
I find it awkward to use the forward and reverse buttons where they are located. I prefer the kind of switches where you push the same switch forward or backwards, but that's just personal preference.
The reason I gave it 4/5 stars is because for the price, you can get a similar item with a tilt head and this one doesn't have the torque of higher voltage similarly priced items.
 It broke April 26, 2010
Stan L. (Honolulu, HI United States)
Had mine for about 4 months, used it occasionally, no heavy torquing of any screws. I really thought this was a good product, till I tried using it this afternoon and it wouldn't make a sound. I think the power switch feels different, so I suspect it broke. It was only $10 at Kmart, so I guess I got my money's worth.
