BLACK+DECKER Electric Screwdriver, Cordless, 180 RPM, 3.6V, Spindle Lock with Pivoting Handle, Charger and 2 Hex Shank Bits Included (Li2000)

Firstly, I hate mindless drones giving anything that turns on a 5...and at the same time I detest those who give anything that isn't their favorite color a one star. With that typed, this thing delivers...Appearance - 2/5. Its black and orange, which might not be anyone's favorite colour scheme, but that's not why we buy tools, so we press on.Ease of use 5/5 - It delivers when it comes to ergonomics and mobility. At first you might think the top operated button is clunky, till you actually start drilling and it all becomes rather unexpectedly easy. It might not look pretty, but it functions perfectly for the duty at hand. From cabinets , doors to drawers, its the right size and angle (pivot handle) for the small tasks. Now keep in mind this isn't a Dewalt power drill with 2000 rpm...its a small drill for menial tasks, so don't expect a wall drilling monster.Battery life 5/5 - Was drilling doorknobs, cabinets, a desk (legs), and a desk drawer for more than 5+ hours on one charge. This little guy delivers, really made that 4 star turn into a 5.The cons - It doesn't have a light, the battery is internal, and it has no trigger per say (again its at the top). Which some might find weird, but I got used to it immediately. Again, this could be a strong 4, due to how much it can take and how much I threw at it without overheating or breaking. But that battery life is the real MVP, I don't normally give 5's especially with tools, but B&D delivered here.

It's good for the price. I needed a cordless screwdriver to put together a project for my mother. I was stumped as to which one I should get. Then I remembered many years ago I saw my older brother assembled two sets of bunk beds with the same screwdriver. I remembered how efficient he was with his tool. And that memory prompted me to get this particular Black& Decker product.

I was looking into getting a electric screw driver at a low cost because the battery of my drill die and I didn't want to pay over 50 dollars for a new battery just to use it as a screw driver. So I ended deciding to buy this model because of price and reviews. I received it and opened it right away to use it. It has little charge that worked fort what I needed it. The package instructions says to charge the first time for a minimum of 16 hrs. So I did that after. The weight and grip are very good. The tork and power are perfect. You have forward and reverse to screw in and screw out. You can also set it to manual screw in. Which is good to finalize tightening any screw. The ability to adjust the folding of the driver gives the chance to work around any job. This item comes with wall charger it also includes 2 bits in the package which is good for starters. You will need to buy additional sizes and shapes to get all your jobs done in a jiffy.What I would change from this item is to add a space where to put the 2 bits it comes with. Maybe a design in the actual driver that incorporates them in would be a solution.The battery life has been fine. It did run out of juice one time I was using it for a good while. The other times it has been OK. I try to keep it allways charged.

Great power for a battery screwdriver. Long lasting and easy to use. Highly recommend it for most small projects.

ADDENDUM: 8/6/2018.I just had to come back and up this to 5 stars; 6 if I could! The more I use it, the more I like it. I refinished my kitchen cabinets and used this on all of the hinges - perhaps 40 hinges X 6 screws each(?). It performed flawlessly through each day without needing a recharge and, held torque and speed the whole time. To be honest, I was surprised at just how well it performed. This is unbeatable for the money.END OF UPDATEI read some of the reviews before I bought this, especially the 1 and 2 star reviews. But, after a couple of 4 and 5 star reviews, I decided to try it out.OK; it is definitely a light duty tool but, that is expected. After all it is $20.00 not $120.00. One of the complaints was that it didn't drill very well(?). It most definitely is NOT a drill. It doesn't claim to be a drill so I was surprised at the reviewers expectations. Another was that it didn't have much torque or power. That is also true but, that is why it has a lock setting for breaking loose and snugging up the screws by hand. The very big advantage it gives is speed and continuity. That is, not needing to re-position your hand every quarter turn and possibly loosing contact with the screw head and dropping the screw because you were using your other hand to hold the pieces in position etc., etc.There were also complaints about the battery not holding a charge or, in a couple cases, not charging at all. I would suspect one of two things here. One is that the reviewer didn't read the instructions and fully charge it properly the first time and, the other is they just got a defective product. That's why Amazon has a great return/exchange policy. I've had to use it unfortunately and all was made right.The one complaint I completely agree with, and the reason for only 4 stars, is the location of the power switch and the awkward way it operates. However, this is not a big problem to overcome.In short; it is what it is and, there is no reason to fault it for not being a full size drill/driver tool. If you want to drill and drive torque and power, get a rechargeable hand drill, not a cordless screwdriver.
