Compact, powerful drill driver with excellent control
This brushless drill driver is extremely well made and performs brilliantly for its size. It’s compact and lightweight, making it ideal for working in tight spaces, yet it still delivers plenty of power for drilling and driving tasks. Control is excellent and it feels very balanced in the hand. The brushless motor runs smoothly and efficiently, and battery life is impressive when paired with LXT batteries. Build quality is exactly what you’d expect, with a solid and professional feel throughout. Overall, an excellent drill driver that’s reliable, powerful, and well suited to both trade and DIY use.

Lightweight reliable and robust .
Makita has become a byword for quality and reliability in the construction , and hobby world , this is no exception . Brushless, so very light , which makes it easier to use , which means you will probably use it more often for those jobs round the house that just need a quick fix.

Fanstastic drill
Needed to replace my Bosch IXO Screwdriver which I recently burnt out on a job, and opted for this. While it is a little bit bigger, costs more and would still need an accompanying battery and charger (more cost), this trade-off is well worth the robustness and power capability from a still relatively small driver, which ultimately saves me time and money at the end of the day. Makita is a well known, quality brand so I'm sure you could find similar items by other brands if cost is an issue, nonetheless, if you are screwing a lot of equipment in to place, and in particularly tight spaces (such as in my case) then this is a god send over the otherwise powerless compact "screwdrivers". Also don't be mistaken by the size and shape, this is a drill driver so it has a clutch and therefore you set the torque to prevent over-tightening; in contrast to an impact wrench which would probably tear the screw through your equipment and then the frame. This doesn't include the other multitudes of uses this item has being much more powerful and durable. Recommended this drill to anyone.

A great Makita bit of kit that deserves more time in the spotlight
I've got a couple of Makita 18v devices and while I really like the impact driver - which is great for big stuff like framing, fences, etc. - I needed something with a bit more control for the things that required a bit more finesse. So the idea of a non-hammer action tiny hex chuck drill crossed my mind. I was looking at a few and almost bought a cheap Bosch screwdriver thing and then I found this. It was a bit weird because I couldn't find (m)any reviews on it, but it's not going to be a lemon, so I bought one. Wow! I'm glad I did. This thing is dinky and allows me to get right into corners when assembling things. Two speeds and around 20 torque settings enable you to find the sweet spot for various woods and screw diameters, and batteries on it last an age. The device has the usual Makita layout; forward/reverse on a push in switch behind the trigger, and a nice bright job light. Build quality - as always - is great, and the chuck has nice positive action. The bits when inserted are a little loose in the forward/backward direction, but I suspect this is due to it being able to take double-ended bits. I'm using it with Wera bits (PZ2, TX20) and there's no lateral wobble at all. It came with the belt hook and a double-ended PH2 bit. the hook only allows the drill to sit flat on a work surface with a 3AH or larger battery. If you have 1.5 or 2AH ones, it'll not sit flush on a workbench. Overall though, really pleased. It means I can keep a bit in the drill and swap quickly between tools and has speeded up my work rate immensely. The impact driver still has a place, and - if anything - I'd see this replacing my combi drill in future, with heavy duty hammer drilling being farmed off to an SDS+ drill or something similar.

At last a decent electric screwdriver
Having tried the cheaper smaller so called cordless electric screwdrivers without success I have eventually found the ideal bit of kit. I already own other Makita drill and impact driver so I was a little concerned that the size of this screwdriver might be on the large size. I need not to have worried as this is a really compact unit. Battery packs for Makita tools can be on the bulky and heavy side so I decided to get the smallest 1.5Ah unit and also added some 15cm long bits. I'm really chuffed, as chuffed you can get over a screwdriver!!! The down side,,,,the belt clip, when fitted, extends below the 1.5Ah battery which means you can't stand it upright without it being unstable. Overall a nicely produced, fit for purpose tool which I should have added to my toolbox years ago. I strugle to see how anyone can be dissatisfied with this even if it is on the expensive side but there again you do get what you pay for.

Worth the investment for sure for an 18v screwdriver
There are times when an impact driver is to noisy and a drill is just to big. This fits the bill on both counts. Quiet & not cumbersome, fitting the job in hand just right. Tbh I do (after purchasing) find myself using this tool more than I thought I would in more & more situations where I use to use my impact driver. Small top unit that allows you to get in to the arkward spaces. Weight is average for an 18v makita. You do have to pull the collet forward to insert bits which for me is not an issue (makes sue the bit is in for piece of mind). Torque collar can be a little fiddly when in use as in awkward to get a grip of & keep changing. Other than that can't fault it tbh. Price is phenomenal £90 for an 18v screwdriver! Milwaukee 12v screwdriver is £100 - £130 depending where bought. DeWalt £170 for a 12v as well. This tool has plenty of "Grunt" power being its 18v & not 12v. If I had to use this all day for all my jobs on its own would I recommend....... Hell yes! Battery also lasts for ages.
