Bottom-Line:
CORDLESS DRILL STRENGTHS
- Value - Excellent value. This Black and Decker drill is about 1/3rd the price of an average 12V drill.
- Run-time - Battery run-time is average, but still very good.
- Features - "Smart Select" drill. Helps you select the correct torque setting with visual cues.
CORDLESS DRILL WEAKNESSES
- Power - Generates 150 in-lbs of torque, about 40% less than average, but adequate for light-duty tasks.
- Function - No forward/reverse switch

- I've had this drill for about a year, and have been very happy with it... Great tool, would buy again.
- I'm happy with it for what it is, which is a great tool for small jobs at a great price.
- Although advertised as part of this drill package, this drill DOES NOT come with a battery charger.
- Excellent! I bought this product because it makes assembly of furnitures a lot easier and faster. So far this product has lived up to its purpose!
