The Impact Screwdriver is much more. I've been using it on various projects at home and it works great. I love how long a charge lasts. Works great as a screwdriver and drill!

I bought one of these and I really like it.

I have used it to hang many pictures in my house, and its awesome for building furniture. You never have to worry about stripping out screws, or screw holes, because of the impact feature - the bit just slows down as it gets tight. Its loud as heck but its super nice and the most useful electric screwdriver or drill I've owned.

The included bits are very nice, and makes this an "out of the box" solution. It includes some drill bits and some screwdriver bits. Not every single one you might need, but it works out of the box.

My gripe: A case for the bits (even cheap vinyl sleeve) would have been nice. However, its not advertised as having such either.

I can see where one size does not fit all customers. I have never felt that the lack of speed control really matters. It is one speed, but that doesn't bother me at all (especially for the price). If you don't apply pressure correctly (the way you do with any screwdriver, electric or not), you might strip some screw heads. I have never done this with this unit after many projects.

If you need to do some really fine work, using an electric is a bit of a maverick approach anyway. You could crack the PCBs in your PC or crack plastic housings (or whatever). If your use falls into of those two project types, you really should not buy this unit, but more accurately, you shouldn't buy 99% of the electric screwdrivers on the market either.

I'm very disappointed at this driver, it's too fast to keep control of what you're doing, you end up biting off screws all the time and since the speed can not be adjusted there's no way to get a handle of it. It sure does have good torque but the speed makes it hard to keep your bits on the screw. I like the size and the grip but I have no use for it. I do not recommend this product.

It seems most purchasers don't get what this is: it's an _impact_ driver. It works on different principles than your standard electric screwdriver.

An impact driver creates impulses of torque to the fastener and does not output continuous torque like your normal driver. Where this feature really shines is when driving in something like a long screw that has a fair amount of resistance. When using a normal screwdriver, the bit will often try to back off of the screw head and you can end up with a mangled screw head. An impact driver will give an impulse of torque followed by none, allowing the bit to reseat itself after every impulse. An impact driver will also spin very fast when lightly loaded and slow down significantly when it's heavily loaded. I consider this a plus for many things, but it can make it likely to snap a small fastener that has little resistance to being driven in. That's not really this drivers purpose.

I've found this very useful for driving long wood screws into studs and putting masonry screws into cement block/brick.

This is not a super powerhouse, but it does generate nearly 30 ft/lbs of torque, which is plenty to snap smaller fasteners. For something that requires a lot of torque to drive in, I need to use my much larger/expensive Makita drill/driver.

I'm dinging this a bit for shorter battery life than I'd like, but otherwise I like it a lot for _some_ jobs. It's not a general purpose powered screwdriver, though. If you need a screwdriver, buy a screwdriver.

It's powerful. The battery lasts long. Used it to assemble a work center table without recharge. It could be better if supports more than 1 speed (fast and slow).
