Good idea, bad execution.

I thought it would be nice to have as I do a lot of simple woodworking. It should have been good. It could be good, but no. The drilling shaft "vibrates" strongly. I used the supplied Allen wrench to tighten the set screw but that wasn't a problem. The real problem was where the part was with the drill bit on one end and the #2 Phillips slot on the other. There's plenty of play where you put it in the collar. It doesn't stay in place very well so there is some wobbling. Not good.

Pros
  • Contoured handle for comfortable ergonomic use
Cons
  • unreliable

I really wanted this contraption

I really wanted this little contraption to please but after 45 minutes of trying to drill countersunk pilot holes and the bit got stuck in wood I ended up throwing them it in the trash. The set screws don't hold the drill in place and the long shank wobbles. Great concept but poorly executed. I had to believe some of the other reviews. I wouldn't buy it again and honestly don't recommend it at all. look elsewhere As for me, I just go back to one drill with a countersink and another drill with a

Pros
  • Quick change mechanism for easy one step loading

Dewalt Missed Target

I'm a Dewalt guy, I mostly have a yellow garage so I was going to love this drill bit but it's missing. First, mine is a little wobbly. The bit is not bent, hitting occurs in the middle of the bit as if the alignment of the parts was broken. Second, yesterday while I was working on the project, the drill bit came loose three times no matter how hard I tightened the hex. Third, the thing is gigantic and heavy, so I don't see why you can't fit the necessary hex tip into the device like other…

Pros
  • Black Oxide Split Tip Drill Bits start at Contact
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Good sturdy tool, fits screwdriver accessory

I have used the 'quad driver' version of this Makita accessory for many years. I like the concept. My only criticism of the Makita version is that the locking and unlocking mechanisms wear out over time. And this ponytail is sleek. This means that hitting the tool tip too frequently will bend the shank. A bent shank means the tool wobbles and I've never been able to get it back into the exact position. DeWalt solves this problem with a stronger shaft. And the lock/unlock mechanism is slightly…

Pros
  • Black oxide split drill bits start at contact
Cons
  • Not bad but...

If you want to save time and frustration, this is it.

I can't work on my drill press without this little genius. I love how this thing saves me time and the countersink feature makes my work look professional. Guys (and girls too), you know how slow screwing lumber can be. First you choose the right size drill bit to drill a pilot hole and prevent the wood from splitting, drill it, take a countersink or a larger drill bit to make a cover for the screw. flush with the surface, then take a screw and a screwdriver (manual or electric) and tighten the

Pros
  • Quick and easy switching between drilling and hammering allows the user to finish the job faster
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other chisels

Feels a bit cheap.

Updating my review... Although my warranty has expired, Dewalt customer service sent me a replacement that was free from defects and this one looks a lot more reliable.4 months later....changed from 3 to 1 star - the part that slides out and folds over doesn't snap anymore.I've only used it twice and the fact that it's already broken is a Signs it was cheaply made I've only used it for basic household items... Nothing major so if you plan on using this for commercial work I'd look elsewhere the

Pros
  • 5/16" shank for extra strength; multi-cut countersink for a great finish
Cons
  • Some minor things
