4.0 out of 5 stars Pros and Cons, January 13, 2000

By	Alan Gerard Moore (Falls Church, Virginia USA) - See all my reviews

I went looking for an inexpensive cordless driver to use for general tasks. Basically, I had a drawer guides in a cabinet that needed some work. It was in a hard to reach spot and I didn't feel like wrestling with a normal screwdriver. I bought the Skil driver for two reasons, price and removable/rechargable battery. Price you all understand. As for the battery I hate it when the battery develops a memory and you cease to get optimum performance. The Black and Decker cordless driver (non-pivot) had the same performance specs as the Skil but did not have a removable battery. Now instead of getting rid of the whole device I only have to replace the battery. Additionally, I can buy extra batteries and have one charging while one is being used. You don't have this flexibility with the Black and Decker (non-pivot) driver. The price was the same. As for cons. I would have liked something with variable torque and the pivot point. These are available in the Black and Decker Versapak pivot driver for about $10 more. Given everything, I feel the Skil driver does the job and I am getting what I paid for. What else can you expect?

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product at a better price, January 24, 2002

By	Doug Gangi (Phoenix, AZ) - See all my reviews

I have had the Skil Twist Xtra for nearly 5 years and the product still works as good as it did when I bought it. The amount of torque the screwdriver puts out is quite good. Obviously, all of these small screwdrivers have their limit, but this is better than the Black and Deckers out there. Better yet, if you do get into a jam and the motor can't finish the job, there is a lock-out switch that allows you to lock the shaft and complete the job by hand. After 5 years of use, my battery is still working good.

This is by far the best of the home-oriented electric screwdrivers. The B&D units are all ...compared to this. I oughta know - I bured out 2 B&D's before I bought this unit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Old battery lasted 7 years, January 21, 2002

By	VIOLA YORK (BATTLE GROUND, WA United States) - See all my reviews

One of the best things to mention about this screwdriver is the fact that you can't possibly over-tighten (and possibly break something) if you hold it with a soft grip. I have owned one of these since 1994 and just now have had to replace the batteries. I have two batteries to insure that the screwdriver is always ready to use. I bought a cordless drill and found that I could not control the force of the driver nearly as well as the Skil-Twist.
