I have an embarrassingly extensive collection of cordless drills and drivers. The problem has always been that one works great in one situation, but not in another. The large drill motors have plenty of driving power, but are heavy, bulky and impossible to get into tight places. On the other hand, the tubular shaped cordless drivers with the breakover handle usually get to the screw but either don't have the power required or the torque required makes them very hard to hold onto. This tool takes care of the job from every angle. There is plenty of power, plenty of torque and great ergonomics that keep the driver stable in your hand. It is very light for it's size, but not in a "cheaply made" kind of way. The variable speed trigger gives great control from dead slow, to full speed with plenty of increments in between. The three LEDs provide great illumination on the fastener, without shadows and dark spots. This really is a great tool.14 of 16 people found the following review helpful.I'm thinking about returning it.By Eugene I. KimI happen to have all three Dewalt 12 volt Max: Impact, Screw Driver, and Drill Driver. Like another reviewer here, I too am puzzled as to why this Screwdriver is better than the Impact for most situations. Having used all three Max drivers, I find that the Impact driver does pretty much everything the Screwdriver would do, but better. Only thing the Screw driver would be better at is if you are screwing in to more delicate (electronics) or fragile material, but if you were doing that then you really don't even need this much power since much cheaper & more compact alternatives exist. The "IMPACT" feature on the Dewalt Impact Driver, only comes on automatically when there is a need for it; so even if you were doing delicate screwing, it still works fine if you can just adjust finger pressure a bit; so I'm really puzzled as to the existence of this Dewalt Screwdriver product. I also find that I'm far less likely to strip phillips screws using the Impact Driver than this Screwdriver. One reviewer commented that this driver has impact-like feature. I don't think that is true. I think he might be referring to the torque control knob similar to a drill driver. This is nothing like the Impact Driver. You can really feel the difference when you use both. When challenged, the Max ScrewDriver will either strip the screw or just start free spinning because of the torque control setting, but the Impact Driver will really drive the screw in when you hold the trigger all the way down (imagine a vice tightly gripped around the screw and a hammer tapping the vice repeatedly--that's the impact motion). If you didn't want the screw to over tighten, then you apply, say, half the trigger pressure on the Impact Driver, and it will tap lightly, still without stripping or free-spinning.This is an exceptionally well made tool. The build quality is much finer than most other tools I've tried around. The power on these Max drills are surprisingly strong. I also have a bigger 18v lithium Hitachi, but I really can't tell the difference in power between the Max (12v) and the 18v for most of the stuff I do around the house. However, I regret purchasing this one from the Max series, because I seem to favor the Dewalt Max 12v Impact Driver for most jobs. For me, this is an over-powered screw driver that I might use only on delicate parts connected to electronics or something; again, I would rather have less power and smaller size for that though. It doesn't make sense for me to own this, but I'm no expert, so if anyone can explain to me why I should keep this, please make a comment soon. I would return this right away if I hadn't purchased it as a bundle with the other Max drivers.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.Becoming my most used drill/driverBy MatthewI bought this Dewalt DCF610 (the 1/4 screwdriver, with adjustable clutch settings, but no chuck) to do general woodworking and as a "carry around" cordless drill/driver. Although DeWalt calls it a screwdriver, I use it as a drill too. I use quick change drill bit and driver bits almost all the time, and I wanted the compact size more than I wanted a chuck.The size, weight and ergonomics are perfect for me. It has a bright white LED light that comes on before the drill starts, which is great for working in dim areas. The clutch has a nice range of torque settings, to keep from stripping or "camming out" small screws. On higher settings, the tool has plenty of torque for larger jobs. The trigger range is smooth and predictable, and has a lockout position on the reversing slider that leaves the LED light available, but keeps the drill off. The upper speed is 1050 RPM, which is fine for me. I also like the you can set it upright on the battery housing, which is a nice touch.Will it match or replace a 18V impact drill or hammer drill? No. If you are fastening down decking or drilling holes in concrete, this is not the tool to use. But it is the right tool for most of my work, and is the first drill I reach for in the shop or in my carry around tool box.It comes with a basic charger, two batteries, and a decent if not fancy bag that I will find a use for. I paid $139 for it at home and farm center, but received a $50 gift card rebate that is as good as cash to me. I have learned to check replacement battery costs before buying, and the $40 batteries are a welcome benefit.For the general woodworker and DIYer, this is a really nice tool. Thanks for reading!Update after 3 months: this tool has served be very well. Right now I am installing some built in closets, and the drill lives on my hip. I really like the quick change bit setup (glad I did not buy the chucked version), and the power and battery life is great. As before, if you want only one cordless drill, this may be too small for your needs, but for most of the drilling and driving that I do it is just great. It is convenient, compact, and oh-so-handy.MatthewSee all 17 customer reviews...
