Fine for driving screws or boring wood/metal etc.

Fine for driving screws or boring wood, metal etc. but don't even attempt using this on hammer action on anything harder than breeze block. Barely made a dent on red brick (with a brand new, quality, masonry drill). I should have known better, from past experience of DIY grade battery guns, than to try, but, I hoped it would, at least, cope with 5.5mm to save me taking out a heavier duty drill. Understand it's limitations & it's a fine enough product.

I think is a beautiful product, I would recommend it to anyone who’s looking for a similar product.

Great for all your home jobs

I have recently purchased a property that needed a lot of work doing to it. This drill set has allowed me to smash through all the jobs around the house that I have thrown at it. Having the spare battery pack is perfect to allow you to keep going once one has run out. I would say that the battery seemed to last longer than the stated timeframe. Not sure if this is just as it’s new and over a few more charges it will come down to that listed time. For its price point don’t think you can go wrong at all with it.

Excellent

Had reservations about battery operated equipment, but this product is easy to use, very efficient, and makes a job easier. Would highly recommend. Good value for money.

Exactly what we were after, very functional and comes with a handy spare battery.
