Great assortment of bits for any project. Only three stars bc I bought it with a B&D drill and the description of the set said it was compatible with most drills yet the drill bits in this set have no hex mount! Those seem to be made for drills that you have to use a key to lock into place. All of the screwdriver bits in this set have the B&D hex mount. I guess I would need some sort of adapter but that is not in this set. My main peeve is that I selected the drill first and the Amazon site recommended buying this 66 p set with it- so I assumed complete compatability.

This item is being displayed along with some of Black & Decker chordless screwdrivers. The screw driver bits work fine, but the drill bits do not fit the PD600 chordless screwdriver at all. Purchased another brand of drill bit & screwdriver bits that have the proper fitting ends for the electric screwdriver chuck.

By definition a "set" means that they go together. Well the bits don't fit this drill! Bad! Don't get it. The drill itself is nice, but try to find the right set.

I bought a cordless Black & Decker screwdriver/drill combination. Correctly assuming that there would be little selection of bits included, I looked to the section of Amazon.com that tells you what other consumers purchased with the screwdriver/drill. This set was shown, so I purchased it to fit my new screwdriver/drill. Unfortunately, the screwdriver/drill was a "quick connect" model and the bits didn't fit properly. I found the correct bits at a store near home. The "quick connect" feature should be part of the description so matching additional bits would be easier.

I use this set all the time with the rechargeable screwdriver I bought on here as well. Works great on all types of screws/bolts. Definitely worth the price I paid for it. Much cheaper than the stores when I purchased the set.

You have to be really good at guessing when to release the button --
or you will over-tighten and/or damage the screw you are driving.

Imagine driving a car with a stick shift and ONLY 3rd and Reverse gears.

Everything else about the unit is well-designed, too bad.

Wish I had read the web page more carefully before ordering.

Ease of storage and usage. Perfect with individuals who have arthritis and\or tendonitis.
