| Reviews | After about 6-8 months of regular professional use, the fitting between battery and tool degraded such that about 1/5 of the time the battery has to be pressed in to get contact and power. This is annoying, and caused me to switch brands. Otherwise, this is a perfect tool for light-to-medium duty. It was an excellent starter tool, and still a great value (in the drill + driver 2-tool combo kit). | I bought this a few months ago I use it everyday the other guys on the job all have DeWalt 18 volt and my little 12volt stands right there with them if not above them | This little impact driver has been incredible for everything I've thrown it's way. From burrying 1/4" lag bolts building fence, to building cabinet storage sets, this tool has performed very well | I had used the product for about a month. Battery last a while. I just did my first recharge after several uses in a 3 week period. I am a teacher/educator and overseer of a private school. It is there and at my home and parent’s home where my Bosch tool kicks in. It does it with enough power. I no longer carry my impact corded one. This little dude does it. Hard bolts, tough wood or cement, etc. Totally recommend it. Bosch is still one of my favorite brands since I was a teenager for its spark plugs. Now, its tools. Hope they add more 12v accessories like the other brands are doing. Love my case also | Really like the compact size, I have been using the product for 4 years and no complains. | This compact drive holds a charge and is always ready to be used. It's small size allows it to be used in tight areas. Even though it is small in size it has the torque and impact to perform in most situations! | I got this tool because it’s compact size, works great with those aluminum bolts on oil pans. Outstanding control speed when lightly trigger is activated | I bought this thing all because I had the 12v Sawzall and figured it would compliment it and also figured it was to small to really use on anything I have the bigger freak and it does great but this little joker is compact as it gets for impacts and its got the butt behind it completely blowed me away honestly this now gets used more than my poor Ole freak but winning this drill would compliment my freak and grinder which is all Bosch | I own the Impact Driver set. I used this tool on many different jobs and applications. I use the Impact Driver for exactly that driving large screws and bolts. The trigger is sensitive enough for small jobs so you can't strip the holes. The size is great for tight areas when you need the strength of a large driver but the small size of an electric screwdriver. This is the tool to use. I do like that the Impact Driver came with battery and a charger. Other brands sell the battery and charge separate. I have purchased several other tools from the Bosch line-up. | I bought this over a year ago and use it all the time. Works perfectly-batteries just as good today as day one. | I bought it few months ago. It works perfect so far. Enough power, light weight |
