Customer Rating:      Summary: Identical to Black&Decker Comment: This unit gets the job done & performs exactly as comparable Black&Decker units sold at Amazon. Only drawback is the awkward placement of the reversing switch.It is located just above operating trigger which allows it to be moved sometimes while pulling on the trigger.A plus is the directional red/green arrow lights which were non-existant on the competitor product.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Fantastic! Comment: The Skil ixo is one fantasttic little screwdriver. Compact, lightweight and still powerful. I highly recommend it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This is a great, reasonably priced light duty drill/driver. Comment: I just got this and couldn't be happier. I have had to change numerous electrcal outlets, lamp wirings and so forth, and for this its small size is a strength. It has more than enough torque for this type of thing, and the use of Lithium ion batteries is a plus, as is the handy storage case.
For bigger jobs I can recommend the Makita BDF452HW 18-Volt Compact Lithium-Ion Driver Drill Kit, which is much larger, more powerful and has more features appropriate for its type of driver.
BTW, both these drills got recommendations at the following website, which is a good source, in my opinion:

Customer Rating:      Summary: A Must Have for around the house! Comment: I've owned this little Skil cordless drill for about 3 years now and still love it. I used it just today in the kitchen, even though I also have a full size cordless DeWalt now. It just comes in handy for so many of the smaller jobs around the house.
Even though I said "smaller" jobs, don't be fooled by its size - many of the men that have had to use mine have been surprised by its capability & power. Mine has done hundreds of jobs for me from just tightening loose screws to putting together large furniture, and I think every household should have one. It's just so easy to grab & go.
I've never had a problem with the charger; in fact, mine sits on the charger all the time, and it's never run out of power during a job. I had to get the larger DeWalt for drilling larger holes and doing larger jobs now that I have a house, but this little Skil is still my first choice for inside jobs.
Customer Rating:      Summary: very useful Comment: Once you get over the fact that this thing looks like a toy compared to your other manly man tools, you find that this drill/driver is really handy around the house.

iXO is a palm-sized cordless screwdriver that has several advantages over its bigger brothers. It fits easily into your tool belt or pocket. It has enough torque to drive wood or sheet metal screws, and the 3.6-volt Lithium Ion battery has power equal to larger NiCad batteries at half the weight. The driver including the battery weighs in at only 10.3 oz. Another advantage of lithium ion batteries is that they hold a charge for an exceptionally long time. Place the iXO on a shelf or in a drawer and 18 months later the lithium ion battery will still be charged and ready to go. The iXO has a 1/4-inch hex head to accept any of the 34 included bits, or simply use the head to drive 1/4-inch sheet metal screws. Add your own 1/4-inch drive and socket set to use on hobby projects to remove bolts or nuts in small or hard-to-reach areas. The forward/reverse button is located on the soft-grip handle just above the trigger for ease of use. You can switch directions without switching hands and you're good to go in any direction. This is an ideal lightweight handy tool for any job that requires either limited usage or for constant use of a drill/driver. Just a few examples are; hanging curtains, picture frames, shelves, bathroom fixtures or mirrors, for hobbyists, home inspectors, electricians, computer or cable installers, moving companies, retail store owners, and appliance repairmen. I could go on and on about this exceptional tool. --C. Dwight Barnett
