Review on πŸ› οΈ Enhance your DIY projects with the BLACK+DECKER BDEDMT Matrix Driver! by Eric Temple

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Black and Decker upped their game.

The medium could not be loaded. Update at the bottom: The video says it all. Good product. Especially for household items. This thing will withstand even medium and slightly heavy projects. It feels good in the hand. It's not as heavy as some drills can be when they need a lot of power. All fixtures are great. And you get a lot for your money. I would buy more but I don't think for a long time. It's strong and doesn't overheat. Black and Decker improved his game. Ps I was not paid nor did I receive any compensation for this review. I really like these products. Update: 3/25/18 So I had to laugh considering I had just done my review on this drill and gave it glowing marks THE NEXT DAY. It gave me shit and almost caught fire. So that's lean. I used this drill to mix some materials (mortar, grout, cement, etc.) in a 5 gallon bucket, which wasn't always easy, but I realized how powerful this drill was that it didn't twitch at all, but man did it... and BIG TIME. it smoked like crazy and then it made that crackling sound you hear from power lines and crackling. I made sure to leave it outside and put it on a surface that, worst-case scenario, wouldn't pose a problem because I literally thought the thing would catch fire. smoke was everywhere. I was stunned that this thing was complaining so aggressively. The weird thing is that I used a cordless drill and did it without too much trouble. It wasn't like it was overheating or severely overloaded at that point, because it was fresh just before it happened. The only thing I can assume is that the drill spins more comfortably very quickly. Run it at a lower speed so you don't wreak havoc like I've tried. Maybe that was a problem for him. I do not know. I have no answers. All I'm saying is that whatever works at full power and on an easy to medium difficulty level, you'll be fine. but push that kid too hard and he'll remind you he's in economy class. Stay away from this line and you'll think you're using the best in the world. I still don't regret this purchase. It still works, I just know what its limitations are. Given the cost etc they are still impressive. However, if you need industrial power, remember that it is intended for medium-intensity home use. The high level of difficulty should be left to the names you know so well. Kind regards
