Great Cordless Screwdriver uses regular AA batteries [Posted on 2007-10-29]
Here's what I like about this electric screwdriver:
1. Unlike most Black & Decker electric screwdrivers, this uses four standard AA batteries. This means that you don't have to worry about using B&D re-chargeables that are always dead when you need them. I load mine with Eneloop low-discharge rechargeable AA's, which retain their charge for up to a year. When they go dead, I just replace them with another set and I can continue using it.
2. It is smaller than other B&D electric screwdrivers.
3. It has a manual mode that allows you to use it as a regular screwdriver.
4. You can switch the bit from flathead to phillips.
Decent screwdriver -- you get what you pay for [Posted on 2008-02-02]
This is a totally acceptable screwdriver for the price. The power is not great -- I was putting up some shelves and couldn't get screws into the wooden studs at all. I had to put it in manual mode. Manual mode is pretty good -- it feels reasonably solid, if just the tiniest bit wobbly. The bit included (phillips on one side and flathead on the other) is easy to use. The grip is rubber and feels secure in your hand.
The screwdriver includes four double A batteries -- so there's no need to rush out right away and buy them. Overall, I would say spend a little more money and get something with more torque. But if you need something cheap for light chores, this will suffice.
Very handy [Posted on 2008-02-08]
Very useful for light work. I like how the switches are positioned and in seems to be running a long time on the first set of batteries.
A Little Disappointed [Posted on 2008-02-27]
I was a little disappointed with the product because I thought it would have more power. I tried using it a couple of times, but the drill bit just spun without tightening the screw. It required A LOT of pressure to get the screw to move, and I could have put that much pressure into it and done it myself.

This is quite a powerful cordless screwdriver, not the strongest on the market, but it is a lot more efficient than working with a manual screwdriver until your hands are blistered. Probably not powerful enough for professional use, but every kitchen drawer should have one. Puts the "power" into "girl power"
