The only other reviewer of this product gave the 14.4 V Skil a "3"; I think it's better than that.

First, it's a helluva' bargain, at 14.4 V, with a keyless chuck, and 2 rechargable batteries. Big-name competitors are typically $40 more.

As far as the problem with the bit slipping out of the built-in holder, it's: 1) a minor problem, and; 2) probably can be avoided in the long term by sliding the bit out laterally rather than "popping" it out (stressing and stretching the plastic).

I'd give this product a 4.5 overall. Not a 5, because nobody's perfect. With the 1-hr quick charger I don't see the battery problem as important.

Bottom line: Good product. Good price.

the drill holds up under heavy household use however the batteries don't hold up as well under heavier use. The screwdriver bit constantly falls from the built in holder. Overall, it is a very good driver for a homeowner.

The drill is ok, but not heavy duty at all. my problem is that first the latch on the case broke. Now the charger fails to charge my batteries. Also, the batteries do not hold a charge long.... but this may be because of the charger. I would think most rechargeables would be about the same.

I owned two Skill High Performance 14.4 volt drills, one has been stolen and the other was involved in an accident and I need to replace them. I bought a B&D 14.4 volt drill but have been less than pleased with it's performance. I have been unable to find new SKILL 14.4 volt High performance drills and want you to know that I'm very disappointed. Why, when you come out with a good quality product at a reasonable price does it suddingly disappear from the market?
