    • Good and Convenient Hand Tool
Review Image by Captain Captain
I find this cordless screwdriver is an excellent tool for my small household repairs and electronics projects. It's convenient to use and now I find myself reaching for it far more often than any manual screwdriver. I especially like that the tool includes a 9-piece bit set. The Skill tool design is built for convenience with one-handed torque operation with an automatic built in light source. ... show more

    • If you need a power screwdriver, get this - you can thank me later.
I originally purchased this rechargeable screwdriver for my instrument repair technician intern, but it works so well that I decided to keep it for myself. I bought a peg winder for it and now string changes are a breeze! I use it all around the house, and even in the garage on occasion. It's a Skil unit, so I am comfortable with the quality and I know that as long as I take care of it, it will continue to work for me for years to come. It charges up quickly, and the batteries last through just about any task you attempt. Very easy to use and super easy to change bits. If you need a power screwdriver, get this - you can thank me later. ... show more

    • Amazing for electrical work
I bought this purely out of curiosity as my first (and thus far only) small handheld electric screwdriver. It always feels like a bit of a hassle to use it because of the need to keep bits separately and look for and insert the correct bit. If this screwdriver could be revised to store a few bits like MegaPro AmazonBasics or LTT, it would be much better. So I generally reach for a fixed screwdriver when I need one for PC/laptop work and most other things. However, it's an absolute godsend when doing electrical work. Especially when up on a ladder, when often I only have 1 hand to work on things. It's incredible. So far the electricity indicator hasn't been needed but I can see how it would be helpful. Torque... I've used it to install screws into drywall, it can do that easily enough. And re-install screws into wood. Or put screws in with pilot holes, it's okay. Obviously it comes with a pilot hole bit so it's intended for that. It's fine for that purpose. However there are misleading reviews saying that the shaft locks when you power it down. It depends on what you mean by lock. It locks enough to thread a bolt/screw/nut. Sure, no problem. But if you want to put a screw into wood and need max torque, you need the power on and to give it a little bit of a twist. There's a lot less torque available when the power is off. (if you turn it manually with "too much" torque, it will just spin the mechanism and your screw won't turn. So it doesn't actually LOCK at all. It's just that there's a lot of inertia within the gearing when it's powered off, such that you can manually screw/thread or whatever light duty stuff. Like getting machine screws/bolts/nuts threaded into metal etc. It's a bit slow. Even doing electrical work. I'm often wishing it were faster. The locking collet is amazing. It doesn't hold on always, but will hold on 98% of the time. If you shove a screw driver bit into a tight terminal block, then try pull it out, the bit will be left behind inside the terminal block. But if you give it a wiggle and pry it slightly while pulling, the bit will stay inside the Skil. For all normal use, the bit will definitely stay inside the collet. Compared to the Bosch. I've used the Bosch briefly, only to drill pilot holes. And I was thoroughly unimpressed with the bosch. It doesn't hold on to bits AT ALL. so the drill bit stays inside the wood. Really lame. I also strongly dislike all that forward/backwards "play" in the Bosch's hex shaft/mechanism. They think they're being clever with that whole "push forward to turn on" gimmick. It's stupid. The "play" is terrible. Give me a solid mechanism for crying out loud. Some people complained about the microUSB saying it should have been Type-C. Well unless you're an assembly line worker, it really doesn't matter. This screwdriver battery lasts forever and hardly ever needs to be charged. So that's a really lame complaint. Yes Skil should have not been so cheap and should have spent an extra 10c on a type C connector instead of microUSB. But I wouldn't ever dock a star for that. I'm docking a star because: * No bit storage * Slow * Would prefer more torque Torque - RPM - Mechanism - Retention Skil 8.5inLbs 1Nm - 230rpm - Twist ring (good) - Excellent retention Worx 44inLbs 5Nm - 300rpm - Button (good) - Unknown retention Bosch 44inLbs 5Nm - 360rpm - Push (really lame and fiddly) - Zero retention So it's not perfect, but was the best available choice for me. I'm still happy with my purchase but there's a lot of room for improvement. I don't care if they make it bigger I want In order of preference 1 Bit storage 2 More speed 3 More torque Anything else is frills/gimmick/nonsense IMO. When I say I want more torque, it's really not a big deal. This is meant for delicate/light duty stuff, like electrical work and computers and so on. That's what I actually bought it for, and it's PLENTY MORE than powerful enough to handle all of that. It's just that because it starts becoming so useful, you've done your electrical terminals and now you want to put some screws in wood, and it's just not quite powerful enough for some things, like long screws or no pilot holes or whatever. It just seems like for all this size/weight and trouble of having/making an electric screwdriver, they could have just added in a gearbox to give us more speed and more torque. For the torque I'm quite tempted to try another brand, maybe Worx. But that doesn't mean that I don't love this tool. I'm happy with it and if I didn't own one, I'd buy one again. ... show more

    • Fantastic little cordless
Awesome! This thing has a lot of torque, long battery life, intuitive controls a useful light and a couple of other bells and whistles. The one con is that the charging port is not USB-C but micro. For the price point it's an INSANELY GOOD bargain.

    • Construction level quality.
This thing is incredible. I work in large scale construction as an electrician. So I know a good bit about how to use tools. This is the best purchase I’ve made in a while. I’m going to have my purchasing agent order one for each person on all 3 of my crews and encourage the other general foreman on my project to do the same. I put this thing to work building IKEA furniture all weekend as a test run. I was pretty rough on it. The battery life is great. The torque is good. Not a drill or impact level torque obviously but plenty strong enough for screwdriver work. It even worked to screw in EZ anchors into Sheetrock. When it taps out you can finish the screw yourself like any regular screwdriver. It’s really quite impressive. As an electrician the induction tester will be handy too. The 1/4” shank fits standard bits in the cases you can get from Milwaukee or dewalt or any other brand too so that’s really handy. It’s comfortable to hold and the twist to operate function is very easy to use. It’s lightweight and easy to use. ... show more

    • Buy it. You’ll love it. 😁
I love this screw driver. Easy to use. A favorite tool to do simple jobs. The on switch is a dial type. It has surprised me when I gripped it and accidentally turned it on when I didn’t intend to. I also like the feature to check if switches or outlets are “hot”. I also recommend buying the nice little zipper case for keeping it and accessories all together. ... show more

    • Does what it is supposed to do. Great value.
I give this 5 stars because it worked fine for what I purchased it for. I bought it to assemble furniture for my house to replace/upgrade old outdated furniture as well as changing receptacles/switches/cover from old beige to white. To me it was worth the price just to aid in completing those jobs. I was a little disappointed when I assembled a printer stand as it didn't seem to have enough torque to fully tighten the screws, but I noticed that the pre-drilled pilot holes were not deep enough as it worked great on other "assembly required" projects. All in all, it is a light duty power tool and works exactly as it is advertised. Paid for itself in a few hours with time and effort saved. Charges fast too. ... show more

    • Decent Driver, Low Torque.
Very low torque. I wish it was a bit more. When fully charged it will run for a few hours assembling holsters. But... I have to go through and hand tighten everything after using this. It does help prevent fatigue by doing a lot of the work, but just a bit more torqu would get the screws more snug. The weight is nice, I do prefer previous ones I bought that have more of an angled handle. ... show more
