Review on Laxia Variable Over Molded Aluminum with 0-3200RPM by Chad Mills

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Don't let the low price fool you

This is a very good drill. Slightly heavier than most 3/8s. Good stop. The internal fan moves a lot of air. It's good. It stops slower than I expected. The motor sounds like it has quality bearings, smooth up and down, forward and reverse. I'm an old mechanic who had a lot of drills. This one doesn't fit my 1/2" Milwaukee, it shouldn't. I can hold the trigger up to a steady 250 RPM, below that it falls off. This drives screws into wood with ease. 3 amps will do for wood. It has a chuck (not Jacobs) that closes to hold a .016 drill bit with ease. That's good. What it doesn't have are brush covers for replacing the brushes. Any competent handyman can remove the screws and remove the cover, to replace the brushes. Probably standard 1/4" or mm equivalent. It comes with 2 screwdriver bits and 4, 5 and 6mm HSS bits. Nice drill, good price, bought a second one.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Crumpled
