I've had 2 Skil cordless drills so far. My first was a 9v, very plain, worked fine. Until the charger died. They wouldn't sell me a new charger because there was a safety recall on it but they did send me a completely new drill (that was nice), which is this one.

I've had it a bit over a year and this charger has now died, too. The drill is fine. It has nice power, the torque clutch works just right. The only thing that bugs me about it is that the chuck is at an odd angle from the body, which is angled from the handle. For me, this makes it difficult to drill a straight hole.

I could have replaced the charger for a bit less than $20, but I didn't, and I used it as an excuse to buy a Craftsman. We'll see how that does.

The Drill is a good one for around the house type of tasks.
I have had the Skil 2467 for maybe a year and the charger quit working.
I'm not sure I would buy another Skil 2467 drill.
Skill needs to improve their chargers because this is the second one that quit charging.
The first one melted.
Might have to spend a little more money and buy a DeWalt or Milwaukee.

The charger failed and ruined the battery. Replaced the charger and battery and the replacement charger failed. Bosch did a recall on the 14V model due to the charger, but I have not seen a recall for the 12V model although there must be a similar issue.

we have had the skill 2467 about 2 years and used it only 4-5 times and the charger went bad . i found the problem on the label: MADE IN CHINA (FOR ALMOST NOTHING) !!

I have have now gone through two Skill 12v Drill/Drivers and three chargers. All three chargers have failed, very early. At least one battery pack has failed, as well. I am afraid to buy another (worthless) charger, so I have two driver motors and three battery packs.. all useless.
