5 out of 5 stars great tool   September 6, 2008
Gerald L. Bunker (New Mexico & Fl)
I purchased this about 2 years ago, and it is invaluable to me.. They have a much nicer, stronger, lighter model out, but this one has done a great job for me, and I use it almost every day,

My old Makita 9.6 volt unit died and I wanted another 12 volt model for light duty use in a shop for cabinet/furniture making, and general use. Unit qualtiy is equal or better than my other Makita 12 volt models and I may buy another.

As a cabinet maker I used this drill every day. This is a very powerfull 12 volt drill and the battery life is amazing. the flashlight is very powerfull and comes andy when needed. I highly recommend this product.

I've had this tool for five years now.

Everything still works like new, though I'm wondering if the batteries might be loosing their charge a little quicker... probably not, I'm just using them more.

Anyhow, I just purchased the 14.4v set to compliment this old tool so my staff doesn't have to fight over the one Makita.

As a professional contractor, I've used it bore 1" holes through studs to run electrical, drive deck screws, and even to assemble corporate cube-land (where you don't want to be rounding out Phillips screws!

Either I've been real lucky with Makita's products, or the just make quality stuff - you judge.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent versatile little dril and light set   October 15, 2005

the only reason I hesitate giving this a 5 star is because the batteries don't last forever. But I've had this for the last 6 years or so, and I love it. I only use it occasionally for light work around the house - I imagine if I was constantly remodeling my house, then I'd need something with a touch more power or battery life. I am certainly keeping this until it dies, and don't expect to replace it any time soon (I'm just visiting this page to say I own it and like it, so I can get recommendations in hardware). The version I bought came with 2 batteries.
