Makita 18v cordless drill
, April 2, 2008Reviewer: wisconsinbigcheese - See all wisconsinbigcheese's reviewsPros: light weight and works well
Cons: battery and charger failed
I purchased this drill from Home Depot and used it probably 3 or 4 times for light work around the house . The battery both went bad after one charge . Took it to local repair shop and the batteries and charger were replaced . Now 7 months later and after building a stand for my aquarium the one of the batteries has gone bad again after 4 charges. I think I spent $200 for a piece of junk. I originally chose Makita as they are usually a well put together product. But this 18v cordlless really SUCKS ! I would look to another brand for my cordless 18v needs. Thanks Makita for a piece of Trash! ...

Pros: Lightweight, Quick Charge, Powerful
Cons: Cheaper construction, shorter battery life
I got this drill as a present, but I've been very happy with it. This model is sort of a "Value line" type, a lesser version of the BDF451.
I haven't experienced the problems mentioned by the others. The drill charges very fast and has been able to handle everything I've used it for, from drilling steel to driving screws and nuts to polishing and stripping paint and finishes. The battery life (with the 2 1.5a cells) is decent; you can also use the more durable-and heavy-3a/h ones used for the "pro" model.
If you can get a good deal on the price, I highly recommend this drill. ...
