 a solid companion to the Makia 10.8v Drill and Impact Driver December 8, 2009
B. Byrne

I have a Dewalt bit set that I've broken enough bits with, or lost that a replacement was due. When i saw this set show up on Amazon, I immediately put it on my wish list. This fills a perfect need for the Impact Driver and Drill set I already own from Makita. I do lots of small and medium home projects, and this has most of the bits you will need. If they added a a few hole saw bits, it would have everything, but otherwise complete. The bits are sharp and true unlike some cheaper sets which have a noticeable wobble in the smaller diameter pilot bits.
Update: 4 months after "weekend warrior" projects, I have yet to experience any of the issues listed by other users. However, as I am not driving through hardwoods as an every day carpenter or doing exterior pressure treated woods, this may be the reason why. Also, Impact driving (when you should be using the drill) a small a 3/32 bit is going to break the piece no matter who makes it. Ive broke many small good and bad bits by just twisting the drill off plane a few degrees. The metal heats up, bends, then snaps in short order. Its why groups like Kreg is in business with their pocket joinery jigs. To keep delicate bits running true and remove much of the user error. Metal does break from fatigue.
The high points remain. Quickly switch from drilling small pilot holes to driving screws for common household needs. Hang drapery rods or blinds, remove and replace light switches and cover plates, install new hardware pulls and knobs on kitchen or bathroom cabinetry. I've also used it to drive sheet metal screws and other self tapping metal screws of all sizes you might find in the home. I had to replace some sheet metal elbows to fix some rattling and poor airflow related to use of my vent fan in the kitchen over the cook top.
Perhaps the expectations I have were always intended for home related jobs. Swinging an 18volt+ cordless with expensive Carbide bits and carbon steel is just over kill for a non trades person. I'm not doing basement and bathroom remodels with these bits. If you need those bits, they typically cost you a couple bucks per bit, and last a very long time with proper use. Heck, I have a hand-me-down Milwaukee 1/2 drill with some old (20 year+) 1/2 shank carbon steel bits. I only use that on rare occasion when I have to run Romex through ceiling joists for something like a new ceiling fan.
The point is. Small jobs with lots of odd size screws, or softer materials, this works perfect. For some of the harder jobs, tougher materials, with lots of repetition, just test it and take your time. If they don't work, get the right tool for the right job... and don't forget as the user, do it The RIGHT way.
Good Deal for the Price July 12, 2010
Edwin Poy (Fairfax, VA)
This was an Amazon Deal of the Day for $14. Nice bit selection, sturdy carrying case, name brand. Although there was some feedback questioning the durability of these bits, I couldn't resist at this price. Nevertheless, under normal household project use, these bits should do the job. "Impact compatible" does not necessarily mean true impact quality--for heavy-duty use, especially when the impact feature isn't the main advertising hook to get you buy these bits. (I.e., water-resistant does not mean water-proof.)
Great product and good price January 30, 2010

I recently recieved a Makita 10.8v Drill driver and impact driver in a set and needed quick change drill bits. This has an amazing amount of bits and drivers for the price and they work quite well. I am an intermediate do it your-selfer and would recomend these for light to intermediate tasks. Easy to change and and access and not to big.
A must purchase a Makita drill/driver! April 8, 2010

A selection of bits which allow you to actually use the drill/driver. The shaft and base are retangular, a requirement for the Makita; you can't use the bits you have laying around the garage. It was very easy to figure out; I fixed my fallen gate in just a few minutes the on arrival of my drill/driver and bit set.
Just the drill I needed June 17, 2010

My previous drill was a 14.4V Makita I have owned for 10+ years. Used it for routine home maintenance. I alway found it to be adequate. One of the NiMH battery packs had finally gotten to where it no longer provided much power. Since the drill still did everything I needed, I thought... why not just get a couple of new batteries. Wrong... $190 for batteries (I purchased the drill and batteries for about $100.) So lots of reviews read later, I abandoned my first thought to go with the yellow drill due to my aversion to NiCd batteries. (Yep, I know that Li batteries are available but for a premium price.) So, looked at the Porter Cable and Milwaukee reviews. It seemed that most of the former quality brands had cheapened their products in the interests of the quick buck and the disposable commodity model. Not subscribing to that model, I decided to go back with the brand (Makita) that had served me so well for so long. I ordered the unit, it arrived within a couple of days. I popped the screw driver head on and drove a number of screws (that the 14.4 would have handled). The power and torque of the 18V unit is noticeably higher than my old Makita. I absolutely love the high intensity light that lights the work. The light should have been a feature from the beginning. I did not experience any chuck-wobble mentioned in other reviews. The batteries do indeed charge quickly. I have not run either battery down to the point of exhaustion yet but with Lithium batteries, this is recommended practice (not to exhaust batteries). I don't know how you could go wrong with the Makita. By the way, this drill is black and white (rather than Makita Turquoise). Highly recommended.
