2.0 out of 5 stars There are better ones for better prices..., February 5, 2002

This drill is very well designed, but the "Variable Speed" feature just doesn't work. I bit the bullet and purchased this drill after searching for a reversable air drill that was variable speed. After hooking it up and pulling the trigger, I wondered why I'd spent all that money. The speed can be varied, but to a very small extent (unlike electric). It takes both hands to very easily let the throttle out and take advantage of lower RPMs (several hundred RPMs). Another issue with this drill is the noise. I've used air tools for a while, but I've never hear a screetch like this one. I would absolutely recommend hearing protection when operating this!
I'll stick with electric and cordless until I can find one that does what it promises.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality worth the price, June 29, 2000

I work on automotive restorations and have experience with several brands of air tools. This is by far the best air drill I have owned. It has quality construction, is light in weight, compact, and powerful. When it comes to air tools, you get what you pay for and this tool is definitely worth the price.
