Metabo HPT 3 6V Lithium Ion Cordless Screwdriver Kit Compact and Lightweight Power Screwdriver with 2 x 1

Works great. Just like the high priced Panasonic and Milwaukee brand equivalents. Best battery powered screw driver at a reasonable price. If you are unsure just pull the trigger and buy it you will be happy. I use it everyday and the clutch is a must works great so you don't strip threads. Battery last forever, for $75 it's a no brainer. Read more

This is my 3rd Hitachi / Metabo drill screwdriver. Got my 1st one (a Hitachi) as a gift from my kids about 20 years ago and thought: "That's pretty lazy if you need to use an electric screwdriver!" But after a few uses, that's pretty much all I use! Fits in my carpenter jean rule pocket, a set of bits and sockets and I'm ready for almost anything! No, it doesnt have the torque to drive in deck screws (yes, it'll remove them but wont drive them into virgin wood- unless you pre-drill a pilot hole) I pretty much wore out my first Hitachi. It still works ok but pretty beat up! LED doesnt work (the switch) but it keeps torquing away perfectly! Sometimes it bites my hand when it goes from straight to pistol grip but it keeps chugging along! Finally decided to get another one and retire this Hitachi! Well... Hitachi sold and changed names to Metabo! Same product- kinda snazzed up but definately cheaper plastic! Thinner, motor is somewhat slower and less torque than the Hitachi- but basically works just the same! Great unit! Out of all the electric screwdrives I checked out, thios one it tops. ALL the batteries are the same 3.6v - plenty adequate. I did replace the charger unit with a smaller one and relegated the original Hitachi driver to my 'go-box' tool bag in my truck (I have a couple of rental units) Decided to get yet another one- while they're still available. Amazon keeps playing with the price- up and down- and this time when they dropped the price- and had a coupon discount too- I jumped at it! Great, practical and useful tool. Maybe I did get 'lazy' in my old age but once you use it, you'll use it often! Now that I have 3 of these, I have one in my house garage, one in my shop and one in the truck so I dont have to go searching for one! Now I have 6 batteries that only take about 30 min to recharge and seems to last quite a while. It's a great product. Not as 'solid' as the original Hitachi but certainly not one of those cheap flimsy generic Chinese no name screwdrivers! If I needed another one- or needed to give one as a gift, I'd certainly get another on of these. Hopefully, these Metabo's will last as long as the original Hitachi stuff! Read more

I am writing a review based on having bought two of these. The first one served me well, but the charger died after several years. I bought a new one because it was more cost effective than buying just the charger. The new one does sound rather gravely compared to my original so we will see if that is an issue down the road All of that being said I really have enjoyed the first one and and this new one seems to be performing well. The batteries have lasted and generally have enough torque for most household jobs. HItachi/Metabo was my goto brand before switching to Milwaukee for cordless tools. This screwdriver better suits my needs than the Milwaukee equivalent. I have liked this tool enough to buy as gifts, which is about as high of praise as I can give. Read more

I didn't buy this for the brand name but for what it did and it performs very well. I am a technician that installs PC's in medical offices and I have to assemble 10-100's of monitors & PCs with many small screws. This power screwdriver does exactly what I need it to do, to relieve stress & fatigue in my hands working with many small screws. With a good magnetic screwdriver bit set this driver works very well, particularly the spare battery which is very useful though a full charge usually lasts all day. It is comfortable in the hand either straight or with the handle bent & the buttons are all in the right position. My only critique is that you can leave the light on by mistake which does not turn off by time and you could drain the battery but I didn't need the light so it was not a problem. If you are driving large screws in a building environment this isn't really powerful enough. you are better off with a full size battery drill. Overall a great, well built, very useful power screwdriver. Read more

Used this in construction, and it got the job done. Light weight and small enough to carry in pouch. Warranty is great on it too, I did have some motor issues but I sent it in and true to their word they fixed it free of charge. Just make sure not to abuse it, you don't want to burn your motor out. I would happily recommend this to anyone in the market for one. Read more

Picked this because Project Farm reviewed it a bit back and test showed it was good. No regrets so far! I wasn't looking for a High Torque one, just something that'll get basic screw jobs snug. This will do it! I have used it a lot for everyday things such as building/tweaking my gaming computer, tightening cabinets, assembling IKEA stuff, but more recently electrical work. I've been replacing all the outlets and switches in my house and this thing provides the right amount of torque and battery life needed! It has a nifty light button allowing me to leave it on or off based on my needs, even when not using it. I keep the settings on Low Speed and Max Torque., except for faceplates. Makes things snug. If I need to REALLY torque something, I finish by hand. This isn't crazy high in torque, but will do basic screw jobs well. Don't expect it to act like an impact driver. Only 'CON' so far is I wish it had a battery life indicator on it. But you do get 2 batteries that charge somewhat quick at least. Read more
