4.0 out of 5 stars Very good Tool to have around, December 6, 2000

This review is from: Hitachi W6VB2 0-2,600 RPM 5.5-Amp Drywall Screwdriver (Tools & Home Improvement)

This tool is very convenient. It spins much slower than a typical drill and has clutch that is surprisingly consistent. Why only four stars ? Because the chassis is assembled in 3 pieces ( most are two ), the nose/ clutch diaphragm, motor housing another, and the pistol grip is the third. The resaon I took away a star is because although you can't see the separate pieces flex, it feels like it, but only when drilling 4" deck srews which torque the housing just enough. If you typically use screws that are 3" or less, you'll never notice it. Kind of a minor quibble but one that takes away from the overall feel of quality. Aside from that, the gun is lightweight, the grip is comfortable, the motor has plenty of guts and sings like a sewing machine. The unit has triple dust protection and the green body is easy to locate on the job. Great tool, I just think they should have molded the grip and motor housing in one piece, not two. Does the job without fault, would have given 4 1/2 5 stars, but that was not an option!
