A true workhorse August 18, 2008
So i decided to give my father my batteries to use while i went to purchase this drill. I broke out my extension cord, and started driving in 4in deck screws like they were being shot in with a nail gun. This 8amp has so much power. And its probably the most comfortable drill I've ever held due to the placement of the handle and weight balance.
Bottom line: Best 3/8in drill I've used. Its cheap, very powerful and renewed my faith in 3/8in corded drills. When it comes to drilling tons of screws on bigger projects, I'll grab for this in a heartbeat.
Excellent corded drill January 4, 2010
The chuck spins easily when changing bits, so it's fast to switch the chuck from a thin to a thick bit (or vice versa). I've never had a bit slip in the chuck - those teeth clamp down securely.
The variable speed trigger is quite sensitive and there have been times when I've given it a little more power than I was wanting to and stripped a screw head or over-driven a screw deeper than I wanted to. In those situations, I might have opted for a cordless drill/driver since they're not as powerful or aggressive. It's taken me some time to get used to the sensitivity of the trigger and now I'm much better at squeezing gently and gradually. I didn't have all of this extra power in my previous drill and I was accustomed to giving the trigger a full squeeze all the time.
But those cordless power tools will never be able to mix thinset (and if they can it won't be for very long!). If you do use this drill to mix thinset (with the appropriate mixing wheel, of course), take it slow and rest the drill plenty. It will overheat and smoke if you push it too hard.
Another note - it's a fairly loud drill, especially compared to the wimpier cordless drills. And if you are doing finer work with it and like to have your face closer to your workpiece to the right of your drill (remember your safety glasses!), you'll get blast of air in the face from the side vent....
