THE electric screwdriver for basic home maintenance
This thing doesn’t over-torque so you have less risk of stripping things. It is like a home improvement artist designed this thing. It has the best overall fee and utility of any tool I own. It is perfection.When you let off the power button, it functions like a normal screw driver and you can hand tighten things without changing any other settings.The bottom line is if you are a novice at home improvement or want something that won’t destroy what you are working on, this is good.No stupid built in rechargeable batteries either. So if it dies I can change the batteries in 2 min vs charging it. Just get enloop rechargeable batteries if you want to be a true environmentalist.It uses standard drill bits. So say you are putting together furniture with allen wrench type screws. Just go to the hardware store and buy allen wrench drill bits and you are good to go.I have a ton of tools, including a lot of screw guns that are much more powerful than this. This is my go to for basic stuff due to the feel it has. If you have a kid in college or an apartment this would be a good start for them to get into power tools.

Definitely Sticking with Black & Decker
I like the power of this battery operated screwdriver, and that it now comes with an extension attachment, HOWEVER, my only complaint is that I have to carry around or go and find the tips when I need to change from phillips to flathead or vise versa! The older model had the phillips/flathead screwdriver tip so you could just flip it over to use whichever you needed! I’m a bit disappointed this newer model no longer has that capability, but I still prefer black & decker over other brands! My last model of this product has lasted over 30 years and still works! It’s just loose around the lock-in-place area! Another plus is that other brand tips also work with this new model!

Pretty much the only option with removable batteries, works very well too
I had a rechargeable screwdriver for years. The built-in battery eventually died. I had to throw it away despite the fact that the screwdriver was still in good shape. What a waste. I hate the trend of built-in batteries. This is done on purpose to force people to buy new products.Also, the screwdriver battery was often in a need of recharge when I needed it so I had to resort to a hand tool or wait until the driver charged up.I love this one for its replaceable AA batteries . It works very well and it’s powerful enough for my purposes. The only complaint is that I wish there was a separate switch for the light so it can be turned on before you start using it so you can actually see the hole or the screw before you start driving it.

Good screwdriver with few improvements it could use.
I have other chargeable drills/screw drivers and was looking for screw drivers with batteries. As a landlord, I rarely need it. So, when I need it sometimes they are discharged. It seems to be pretty much the “only” alkaline battery (not needing to be charged). Build is strong and feels well in the hands.I am giving it 3(*) because,1. I only used it twice during last few days. The batteries that came with they depleted fast.2. Switching direction needs two hands. I am not sure why B&D couldn’t make switching easier by one hand. Not a difficult improvement.3. I wish, there could have been a way to store at least one bit.I like the feel of this screw driver. If better quality batteries last longer, I could go for a higher rating.I like the LED lights. If there were a way to switch the lights off when needed, perhaps would have improved the battery life.

3+ years and going strong!
Itâs nice not to have to remember to charge it. One of the few things in my life these days that I donât have to go hunting for a USB brick. Three good old AA batteries does the trick about every six months or so. Bought it in May 2021 and still going strong. This is the champ.

Rather use AAA batteries , most of the li-on batts are too weak. This is solid and works well.

Lo bueno es que se le puede poner pilas recargable para no contaminar tanto o, de las normales para usarlo al instante y no como otros atornilladores inalámbricos que cuando lo quieres usar está descargado o la baterÃa integrada ya no sirve y solo funciona unos segundos. Me gusta la extensión, es más cómodo. Muy buen producto.

Powered by standard AA batteries means I can change the batteries easily when they die. This is important for people who don’t use electric screwdrivers often (less than 10 times a year, like me) and worried about the rechargeable battery dying due to ageing. Recommend this electric screwdriver for people who open/close electronic device cases (like PC cases) but shouldn’t be used on woodworks, such as assembling IKEA furniture.

Funciona muy bien para todas las ocasiones

Great little tool, I was looking for a tool that doesn’t have an integrated battery as these eventually wear out over time, especially if we don’t use the tools often. If I run out of juice, just have to change the batteries (works with rechargeable batteries too, I always have a few charged around – I bought AmazonBasics’ slow discharge batteries for my sporadic uses).The only negative point is the extension shaft which is not straight, I suspect the magnet in the bit holder is not flat, hence the bits are wobbling when used in the extension shaft…
