Tools and Hardware Reviews of Makita LCT300W 18-Volt Compact Lithium-Ion Cordless 3-Piece Combo Kit
Customer Review: Drill& Driver
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great unit. I bought one two years ago for work and liked it so well I just bought one for home.Customer Review: Drill's great - the Driver is the hidden secret in the combo
Summary: 5 Stars
I knew I wanted the drill from having played around with a friend's. It's outstanding.
I bought the combo based on a few reviews saying how outstanding the driver is.
I must concur. The driver is outstanding.
What the reviewers didn't say was that it has an automatic transmission that grunts it out to low speed/high torque - and the kicker - switches into a hammer-driver mode at slow speeds to realy torque it out.
It will drive deck screws through 2x4's without breaking a sweat - or spinning your bit - and then back them right out again.
So do get either the 2 or 3 piece combo to get the driver. it'll be your default "power screwdriver" for everything but the gentlest applications.
I have to say I like the flashlight too. Nice, bright, and positionable, I use it more than I figured - having it always in the combo kit bag.
Customer Review: Enough power plus rapid recharge is a winner: lets do CHRISTMAS
Summary: 5 Stars
After 10 + years of trusted service from my 1ST MAKITA cordless Nickel-Cadmium rechargeable ML902 flashlight and 2 drills, the batteries became "tired", recharged poorly and had little power. I fortunately blessed myself with the 3 piece MAKITA 18-Volt,. Lithium-Ion Combo kit - Wow! Now, a full recharge time is 30 minutes, the power is superb - and by using the Impact Driver even the largest of wood screws is effortless, but I still soap them per my Father, Ralph). Though the handle design differs, it is now even better by being standing upright; and the belt clip is clever. The only change I'd make is to have the chuck accept a key to tighten larger drills bits. The price for the new 3 piece Combo Kit was almost unbelievable - and shipping within the week allowed Jennifer and I to install the High Tech Power Pet electronic cat door for the 4 cats (Tiger, Sebastian, Creamer, & Missy) the next day to keep out raccoons (Procyon lotor). This will be my favored Christmas present. Thomas Edison would be proud of Makita Cordless.Customer Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
I have owned this set, driller, driver and flashlight for two years. I have owned several cordless drills in the past, but this one is by far the best. First, the battery maintains its charge better than any other I have encountered. The tool doesn't weaken until the battery is virtually fully discharged. The battery charges rapidly; less than 30 minutes. Second, the tools are extremely well balanced, better than any drill or driver I have used. Third, they are very powerful, always able to drill or driver whatever I throw at them. In the 2+ years they have been durable. Fourth, they are smooth running and ergonomically designed. Nice touches like the LED light on the drill make drill in tight, poorly lighted places easier. The keyless chuck on the drill grips very well and doesn't loosen. The flash light is a worth while addition. It lasts long, lights very well and with an adjustable angle makes working under sinks and in other dark places easier. After two years of ownership, I enthusiastically recommend these tools.Customer Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
3 piece set was much lower than 2 piece at Home Depot. Driver allows you to get into those tight places. Compact design, lighter weight still plenty powerful yet reduces fatigue, especially when working above the waist. Highly recommended.
