Editorial Review

Black & Decker's 3.6-volt PowerDriver is perfect for assembling furniture, mounting shelving, changing hardware, or any project where turning a standard screwdriver would be a painstaking process. The rocker switch toggles easily between forward and reverse, and the automatic spindle lock allows you to manually start screws or finish them without stripping or overtightening. When installing hardware in hard-to-reach places, the narrow nosepiece gives you an extended reach. --Dori Anvinson ... Read more

great for the average do-it-yourselfer
I got this for my spouse and he loved it.Its easy to use, runs as long as he needs for the minor projects and repairs he does.If you are a professional who'd use a tool like this, it won't last nearly as long as you'll need.The target audience should be the average John or Jane who really just wants to make the few times a screwdriver is needed a month less work so things get fixed in a timely fashion.

JUNK - Broke after using TWICE
I received this driver for Christmas, used it twice, and then heard a loud grinding sound.After taking off the drive head, I noticed that two metal posts securing plastic gears had sheared!

By comparison, my Skil driver is going on 10 years!

B&D is JUNK!

Useful, sort of.
I used to use a B&D cordless screwdriver, but gave it away when I found it often took as long, or longer to use this tool than using a manual screwdriver. Sure, it's faster when you have a LOT of screws or very long screws, but a cordless drill is faster still, and has the advantage of variable speed and more power. Using this screwdriver to drive long wood screws is an excercise in patience as you watch it sloooowly drive the screw in and then quit halfway as it runs out of power.

Cordless screwdrivers are cheaper than drills, true, but overall I think the classic 7.2volt Makita cordless drill is just about as compact, much more versatile, much more powerful, lasts much longer and will drive a lot more screws on a charge. ... Read more

Great for carrying around while hiking, etc.
I use these mainly while I'm hiking, they're fairly light, they fold up nicely, the focus is smooth and quick, and they're made by Canon. For youtechheads, the technical specs on Amazon.com don't say, but the exit pupilis 2.5mm. They have a cord/strap attached to them, and it is NOT removable,just an FYI. And another note, these aren't waterproof. They also comeboxed from the factory with a soft/padded carrying case which attachesnicely to a belt. ... Read more
