Saying "these are terrible" is not very helpful for people. Can you give some constructive feedback? Eg - reasons, examples.... it may be that for the casual user, the issues you experienced are acceptable at the price.

I bought this from Argos last time. Don't waste your money on it. It's rubbish. Worth £12 at the most. Spend a little extra on a Bosch, Makita, DeWalt or Milwaukee.

little extra? Like atleast 3x the price. Although I do agree that these are terrible.

Single gear ie slow, minimal torque, single battery AND slow charger. As said, OK for occasional light DIY at best.
For a cheap drill, their next model up for £33 looks much better value:
Two gears, nearly double the torque, two slightly bigger batteries, fast charger. Should be quite capable of some moderate DIY. :smiley:

If ur an occasianal DIYer,this will do perfectly.. Im happy with mine. Got it for £29.99 from argos when it was on sale.. Cant complain much u get what u pay for..if this is intended for everyday heavy use,dont be surprised if it packs up.. But it comes with 2 yr warranty which is a peace of mind for ya...

And is also double the price, as said this will probably be fine for occasional round the house

Not a good drill with a 5 hour re-charge time,the similar priced drills from Aldi or Lidl have a 1 hour recharge time and 3yr warranty.
