Makita DF001DW 3 6V Lithium-Ion 1 4 Hex Screwdriver Kit Teal 3 6V

This is a great little tool for taking screws out. It has a lot of power, a light. The downside is that there is no speed control or torque setting. That means that you can't really use it for putting in screws because you don't have any control over how tight they'll be. This is great for something like Ikea furniture where you have a LOT of screws and sometimes they're very long. Not good for putting up shelves or anywhere where you want to be careful how tight the screw is. Also, the motor assembly has some intertia, so when you're tightening something and let go of the button, it runs on for a moment and can cause the driver to twist. It is round-ish, so if it's in the 'long' position, it will roll off any un-level surface ( roof, driveway, etc). Also, it has an accommodation for a wrist strap, but does not some with one, so hanging it from a tool belt or on a workbench is not convenient, you have to hunt down your own loop if you want to hang it. If you're on a roof or something you may want a wrist strap of some kind. A regular driver will typically not roll off a roof or un level surface. So, in summary, great for stuff like taking apart computers and such. Not great for workworking. Read more

The battery seams to hold up long time. However, there is anything that tells you it's time to recharge. Then the next issue is, there isn't an indicator that tells you the battery has recharged. Other than those 2 issues it a great tool but and do every larger jobs, would I buy it again, No. Read more

This is the best value for the money and the torque is amazing. And a battery life is great Read more

Recommended. I got this as I was doing many outlets in a cabin build and using a manual screwdriver got tedious. If you need to finesse the last bit with a manual, sure.. but this item is great. I looked for a decent screwdriver and figured I couldn't go wrong with a Makita. I stand by that.. Excellent product. I can only suggest adding a charge light on board to make this a better tool. Otherwise, the power and feel of the tool are great. Hope to have this in my arsenal of tools for the long run. Read more

Owned this for three years now and am very happy with it. Back to get one for my brother's birthday, so I thought I'd leave a review. It's a huge timesaver and will slash your Ikea build times. For more sensitive applications, I use it 90% of the way and hand-tighten the rest. I mostly use it for furniture assembly, my PC, bike, skateboards, and general house things (socket covers, grates, handles) as well as a few off-label uses where a little motor comes in handy for (improvised cat toy, reeling up twine, buffing out stains, etc.) Included bits are good, but the hex shank makes it easy to swap in others. I have a flexible extension that helps get to some hard to reach screws. Read more
