Tools and Hardware Reviews of Milwaukee 0490-22 4-Volt Lithium-Ion Screwdriver Kit
Customer Review: Buy it for the Bit Holder
Summary: 5 Stars
Not much is said in the reviews I've read about the bit holder on this device. It's great. You can truely do one-handed bit changes. Pull the release out and it stays released. Then you can take your hand off the release and pull the bit out. When you put a new bit in all you have to do is push it in. No more pull-out-the-release-and-put-in-the-bit-at-the-same-time business. I'm sure the light on other devices is nice, but this easy to use bit holder trumps a light any day in my book.Customer Review: Can't beat it for the price (especially if you got the daily deal)
Summary: 5 Stars
I got mine for $50 when it was listed as the deal of the day on Amazon. But I see it's only ~$70 now.
I've owned a couple of different power screwdrivers, and never bought a "high end" brand before, mostly because of the cost. This Milwaukee model is well worth it. Built like a tank, has torque and speed settings and a seperate lock lever. Pistol grip or straight. Comes with 2 batteries and a charger.
Highly recommended.
Customer Review: Excellent screwdriver!
Summary: 5 Stars
It's fast on the high setting and the clutch works very well. Battery lasts a good while as well. I've owned several powered screwdrivers over the years and this one is definitely the best.Customer Review: Excellent! Milwaukee has another winner product!
Summary: 5 Stars
Although I've only been using the screwgun from Milwaukee for about 1 month now, I can say that it deserves 5 stars! I did have an older Milwaukee screwgun which used the older type batteries which after about a year of recharging the batteries just could not hold a good charge anymore. With these 4-volt Lithium-Ion batteries (2 are included!) and the updated charger I do not think this will be a problem anymore.Customer Review: Good all around tool
Summary: 4 Stars
Bought the Milwaukee mainly for doing electronic assembly.
Pros:
Overall a really good product
Plenty of power
Really like the auto stop clutch, as it is very accurate.
Lithium Batteries are a huge plus over older models
Cons:
Ergonomics are pretty horrible. The design of this type of tool really hasn't changed much in 20 years and needs an update. I don't get the handle that doesn't fold to a full 90 degree angle. The angle it stops at is very awkward to work with in my opinion. Overall the tool really should be about 30% smaller by now if it were following the trend in drill design. Overall length is way too long to be comfortable doing assembly work and there are no contours in the shape to fit your hand at all. Next time i am going to try the Panasonic as it looks like it has a little better ergonomics to it.
