Review on 🔧 PORTER CABLE PC600D 8 Inch Variable Speed: Versatile and Efficient Power Tool for Precision and Performance by Adan Hudson

With so many power tool brand mergers and acquisitions these days, it's difficult to keep track of which traditionally trusted brands are still delivering consistent quality. This Porter cord drill seems to live up to its reputation, especially for heavy-duty home use. She really has a plastic suitcase, but she's really strong, doesn't give up and doesn't play. I'm not keen on the plastic near the cartridge but I can live with that. Other reviewers have noted the noise level - to me the noise is fairly consistent with the electric motor revs being reduced, so it's reasonable. No wobble at working end, at least on what I got, so drilling should work properly. I also found the trigger to work well - it's a short hit, but most importantly it's very predictable so it doesn't feel like a "trigger" to me. A great use for this drill is as a corded drill. and a lightweight drive for larger assembly jobs around the house, such as B. assembling furniture or installing shelves. Plenty of torque, fairly light weight, and no sacrifice in battery life. It also seems to ventilate fairly well for prolonged continuous use with abrasive discs, wire brush wheels etc, but I haven't had a chance to test this yet. I wish it had come with a factory installed Porter Cable hard case. but I found a solution by spending ten bucks more for a small, sturdy, hard-bottomed, soft-sided Porter Cable tool bag. A little more than just a drill, but still room for a few sets of bits and drills. So it's handy as a complete "drill bag" and you never have to fiddle with precisely winding and inserting the power cord into the hard carrying case's designated spot. The factory calls it "Power Tool Bag with Porter Cable Soft Sides" (OEM replacement). part no. A11901). Please note that 1 inch in the 21 x 13 x 1 inch product dimensions refers to the folded bag.
