This Drill is a Star! [Posted on 2007-07-16]
I have never owed a Skill product, although I have owned several Black and Decker and Dewalt and no name cordless drills over the past 10 years. They have preformed well but my biggest complaints have been the operation of the keyless chuck and the lack of a second battery (except for big buck models). The chuck invariably (even Jacobs chucks) slips under load ruining the bit or the project. This drill seems to have a no name chuck but it offers a split chuck which allows you to twist one end of the chuck tightly against the other end fully securing the bit. In terms of torque, it has plenty to spare for tough (drilling into green wood) projects and has excellent balance and 'feel/touch' allowing very positive control of speed for spinning screws. Further, the compact size makes it fit into spaces my 19.1 volt could not fit into. I would say, with a charger and second battery and the overall 'feel' of the tool, that this should be a legitimate 150 dollar product. Well done indeed!
tremendous power and long battery life [Posted on 2007-10-19]

I have purchased more than a few reconditioned tools and have yet to be disappointed. The tool was in excellent condition and shipped in a very timely fashion. The few cosmetic blemishes that you will find upon close examination is more than made up for by the price reduction.
Nice Drill [Posted on 2008-04-10]
I love this drill. With variable sspeed and torque controls, and the power of 18v for a low price. I can't believe they even include an extra batterey. I had a 14v drill previously that I paid the same amount for that only came with 1 battery
this is a good purchase [Posted on 2008-05-15]
Since I have purchased this gun, I have built several projects in my shop and around the house. I would reccomend this product to any home owner or craftsman. It is well balanced, and the battery life is very good, also you can't beat the price
