Review on πŸ”§ Bosch Power Tools Combo GSR12V 140FCB22: Compact and Versatile DIY Powerhouse by Genene Locson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great little drill for precision jobs

More than 10 years old, this is still a great little drill. I use it primarily for cabinet installations where its size, versatility and precise grip save a lot of time. It has enough power to ride a 1 1/4 Dare Devil or speedboard in a pinch, but if you think you'll be using it for rough electrical work or deck building there are obviously better alternatives. I would also like to mention that I have never had an accidental blackout. This was a big problem or I read some of the reviews but it's just not a problem for me. I don't know if this is due to a design change or user error on the part of some reviewers, but once it's locked I don't see it coming off on its own and I've certainly never experienced it. I wish the drill had some sort of belt clip, especially since the one on their 12 volt punch is the best I've used.

Pros
  • Reliability: Locking bit holder included to securely lock hex bits in place when driving or high-torque drilling
Cons
  • Crumpled
