Makita just keeps creaming the competition!

This is my 3rd Makita drill/driver, my 1st I keep as a spare and my 2nd one was stolen out of my garage (grrrr!). What floors me is not just the brilliant design, build quality and reliability which I now expect from Makita as much I expect it from most other Japanese-designed products---it's the astounding BANG FOR THE BUCK which this packet offers. ^M

You get an excellent quality impact driver that puts screws through wood or metal like bullets through butter, plus an excellent general-purpose drill, and last but not least a fluorescent work light that is actually very practical and useful rather than being just some worthless freebie...for about the same price that I originally paid for just the impact driver (the one that was stolen) by itself! I also appreciated that the carrying case now has metal fasteners instead of the plastic ones all my previous Makita carrying cases had...nice improvement. ^M

My advice is, snap this kit up before Makita comes to its senses and stops offering it!

Fast & Powerful!

Got this impact driver two weeks ago after reading a whole bunch of reviews and while it takes a little getting used to, once you've mastered it things go really fast. First off, it's small, smaller than a comparible drill. That makes it great fitting into tight spots. It's also lighter, which is a real blessing on the arms and hands. But most of all, it's fast -- considerably faster than using a conventional drill. It goes so fast and is so powerful that I was leery at first, so I started by using it to remove hundreds of screws (I'm a hobbiest and I'm making a major change in one of my projects). Then once I got the hang of how to adjust speed with the trigger, I started using it to sink the new screws. Bam, Wham and it's done! Highly recommended!
