Black & Decker CDC180ASB 18-volt Compact Drill Reviews
| 66 of 66 people found the following review helpful  Great drill for the price, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Black & Decker CDC180ASB 18-volt Compact Drill (Tools & Home Improvement) I was looking for something cheap as my first drill. From checking many different stores and drills, this was the best choice for the money. I used this successfully for installing 3 over-the-range microwaves. I bought large Irwin drill bits to cut big holes through drywall and cabinetry, and this drill performed fine. This alsosaves you a ton of time having to use a screwdriver to assemble something. FYI: The 20 accessories that come with this drill are drill bits and screwdriver bits. They are of good quality and that alone saves you some $10-$15 bucks from having to buy it separately with another drill. This is not a hammer drill so you will not be able to drill through concrete or other strong material. Some places of drywall was difficult for me to drill through, but with maximum drill power and forward-force I was able to make it through. The battery lasts well for me, one thing that is good is to keep charging it in between working, or...

It's adequate for most tasks, but no better.The battery can only be charged when it's plugged into the drill, so you can't alternate between two to keep working. It doesn't have a variable speed setting, so controlling the speed when driving screws is hard. The battery capacity seems small, plus there's no charge level indicator on the device or charger, so you don't know when it's fully recharged. Finally, the RPM is very low compared to equivalents--getting through steel is going to take you a while. If you can get it on sale for a reasonable price, and don't want to do too many adventurous things with a power drill, consider giving it a look. 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful Black & Decker Drill, By This review is from: Black & Decker CDC180ASB 18-volt Compact Drill (Tools & Home Improvement) I asked for this particular drill (battery powered) for Christmas - and got it :-) I have several Black & Decker items and am pleased with all of them. Jig saw, two electric drills, weed whacker, tiller, small work bench, wall paper steamer (yes, B&D doesn't make them anymore, but I loved my original one that I had for 20 years, which finally gave out after many hours of use not only by me, but also by some of my office colleagues. But I found a "brand-new/old" one, never used, on e-bay.) Some of those tools might not be suitable for a professional handyman, but for a do-it-yourself woman (or some of the more clumsy, helpless do-it-yourself men!), they are wonderful, reliable products. |
