Ah the cordless drill mans best friend, at least its my best friend.
First of all I have to say im liking the colour scheme on this drill, I know that hasnt got anything to do with DIY but I had to say it.
Of course it does its job, replacing the screw driver for all those tough jobs, such as hanging up pictures. looking at the drill itself there are lots of things that make you life easier. When inserting a drill bit you simple unscrew the end to release the holding mechanism and pop the drill bit in, bu whats clever is its magnatised so its easier to insert and do up if youve only got one hand free.
You can change the speed the drill turns on a dial and also change the direction the drill spins in, handy for annoying backwards screws. There is a clip at the end of the drill which holds a spare drill bit, so you dont have to carry around lose drill bits which could get lost.
The drill is very comfortable to hold and not too heavy weighing only around 4k so its easy to carry comfortably. The 18V battery takes around 4 hours to charge which is pretty good, although if using the drill frequently the battery does run down quite quickly which can be a problem.
The drill will last for quite some time, I have owned mine now for coming up 4 years and it still works perfectly well and still looks in great condition, as if bought yesterday and the battery life is still as good as ever, if short.
The drill is also safe to use, of course there is a certain risk factor using a drill of any type but as drills go this drill is quite safe to use as it has limited power and will switch of the instant your finger leaves the trigger.
The drill is reasonably priced only costing around £40 - £50 and when you think this drill will last you many years its a worthy investment rather than buying a cheap make which wont work as well and could break within the year, meaning you would have to spend more money. It really is worth getting one of these for it will last you for many years.
So overall I would say buy this drill for whatever jobs you need it for it can work for everything and anyone and with a long life you'll be saving yourself lots of cash.
