I have never used another brand or model, but this thing sure seems weak to me. I know this product is recommended for home use, but hey, some screws found in the home are just as difficult as those found on a construction site, or so I am told. I purchased this as I hate screwing things.
Even my wimpy sister has more power than this thing does. I fear I am still having to do everything by hand. I cannot in good faith recommend this product.
I know little to nothing about power tools of any sort but I do have things around the house that need fixed now and again. Now I have extremely strong hands for a girl, actually stronger than many men, but screwing simply bores me and I don't like it. I will give it two stars though, as it does work with small screw jobs.sort of.
I fear to tell you that this item was really not worth the money I paid. I have to start a hole with a nail to screw in a screw and more often than not this thing does not have the power to finish the job and I have to end up screwing by hand anyway.
Unless the material is soft, it should not be used to tighten a screw. The gears inside are plastic and cannot take the torque of driving a screw without a pre-drilled shank-diameter hole that is deeper than the screw. Unlike what the Black & Decker Marketing department says, don't even think about using the Black & Decker 9072CTN on furniture. It is suitable only for driving small screws into pre-drilled plastic or sheet metal, or with plastic screws.
It is okay for very very light duty things, but nothing more. I believe this is 4, and IT MATTERS. I have a more powerful black and decker cordless screwdriver and was aniticpating the same with this version. It is very weak.the one I have that works very well is 6 volts.
I will use this vendor again in the future. I love this new screwdriver. It was sent to me in record time with no problems.
I cannot ask for anything else. I got exactly what I wanted in a timely manner.
