Quick review

The good
Easy to use, ideal for light jobs
The bad
Not powerful enough, Push & Go is annoying when it comes to unscrewing
Verdict
Too much attention has been paid to making it look appealing to the iPod generation rather than making it powerful enough to work effectively

  • I bought one at WalMart and found it okay for easy jobs, the removal of screws works okay but a little tricky. I have a hard time charging the unit even though it appears easy. My christmas lights haha are not appearing which tell me the unit may not be charging. I havent had it long for this to happen. Tried to call the number in the book and its disconnected. No other number avail. Unable to find company on box on line as yet. Posted by LMK, USA
