Yes it's cheap for a li-ion battery drill, but I think I'd pay a bit more for a better one. 18nm max torque is seriously low, might be fine for drilling soft wood, but this is really going to struggle as a screwdriver.

to put this in some context the Bosch professional £99 Screwfix is 63nm max torque. You do get what you pay for but it's a million times better than buying a Nimh battery drill and having to replace it in 12 months time. Great deal for what it is but don't expect to get through a lintel. :wink:

Erm, no. The company I work for only supply a Bosch 24v drill, it's rather a beast, great for when drilling concrete or through a stone wall with a 1M drill bit. But it's very cumbersome when putting 3mm screws into metal/upvc etc.
So a drill like this fits the bill perfectly, as long as you don't expect it to perform like an SDS drill and realise it will only hammer drill into breeze block then it's a good tool to have.
Heated OP and tempted to buy

Tbh years ago I paid £22.50 for a cheap BnQ battery drill NiMh type. Used it fairly often done some decking a few times general putting fixings and drilling through the odd wall. It's still going strong now, I'm sure this will be up to the task no need to pay the earth for jobs round the house.

won't last five minutes. I'm a professional joiner and I bought my old fella a 12volt Makita over 10 years with 3 batteries. not had a hard life just average Diy use but it's still going strong and I expect it will outlast him! seriously spend a tad more and get yourself a drill that will last you decades.

You may be right, you may be wrong but you have absolutely no evidence on which to base that statement and it comes with a warranty for longer than 'five minutes' (2 years in fact). Arguably a Makita is way over the top for your 'old fella' and I bet it was more than £26.39!

I have got one of these and I use it on a daily basis and it's pretty good i would put it up against a dewalt and Bosch but I have only had it about 7 months so I'll see if it lasts.
