Customer Reviews:

Good value / good Skil quality [Posted on 2007-01-11]
Very pleased with the quality, condition, and price. It even included a hard shell case! For the price, I don't think you could find anything comparable. I am no drill expert, but this Skil drill has a solid balanced feel to it and works quite well. Although this was labeled Skil reconditioned, it looked like it was factory new.

Drill is OK but the changer and battery did not work. [Posted on 2007-05-19]
I bought this drill because already had a similar one and thought I'd get two and share batteries. From day 1 the battery charger that came with the drill did not work. I ended up using the battery from my old drill. Then a few days later the new battery stopped taking a charge.
I have emailed Skilshop numerous times in the past month. I also emailed Amazon about this problem but I have not seen a response.

a good value [Posted on 2007-05-29]
Overall, this is a satisfying tool to use for the small jobs and it is a good value. The ergonomics are good: it is well balanced; the grip is comfortable; and the torque, with variable speed settings, is reliable.

The lock release for the battery is not real smooth however; it takes a real squeeze to get it off for a charge. The charge might last 10 minutes of continuous usage; the refresh rate on the charger is around 2 hours.

Still, I am quite satisfied with this tool; it has given me 2 years of reliable service so far and is still stepping up to the plate.
