Black & Decker Cordless Screwdriver

This is a must for anyone who is considering buying any flat-pack furniture. I struggled for years without a power screwdriver but after a trip to MFI sale I ordered rather too much furniture for both bedrooms and my office. When all the flat-packs arrived one of the delivery guys said I hope you’ve got an electric screwdriver. I had to agree and promptly popped out to B&Q for the Black and Decker electric screwdriver. This rechargeable power driver worked well with six torque settings to adjust the amount of power applied to the screws. The screwdriver came with a good selection of nine interchangeable bits (three sizes for each of the three types ...  Read the complete review

Firstly, the Black & Decker cordless screwdriver I have is slightly different from the one pictured, but it's much the same so I'll write the review anyway. The first question you might ask yourself is, why waste money on a cordless screwdriver? I'll try to answer that. At home, we added an extension to the house to give an extra bedroom. We bought a whole set of flat packed furniture which of course needed assembled. I decided to invest in a Black & Decker cordless screwdriver, I thought it was better to invest a little more and get a decent DIY brandname. I simply bought the screwdriver on it own with a reversible screwbit, giving you a ...  Read the complete review

I have just broken my second Black and Decker cordless screwdriver. Compared to a humble screwdriver it's a complicated tool. The more bits and pieces in it the more to go wrong. They are great time and effort savers when they are fully charged up and working,especially when doing a large job like fitting a new kitchen, but how many times do you fit a new kitchen? I do more small jobs like fitting a plug or putting up a shelf, a simple screwdriver will do most jobs easily. I don't want a new cordless that only lasts a couple of years, for the same price I can get couple of really good quality ordinary screwdrivers that will last me a lifetime. ...  Read the complete review

BLACK AND DECKER CORDLESS SCREWDRIVER As a disabled person with limited mobility of my right side, I found that this type of screwdriver was one of my essential tools. This is my second screwdriver and I have found it very easy to use but it is very important to keep it fully charged, because there is nothing more frustrating not being able to finish the job. One problem with this is it needs clear space directly above the screw due to the length of the tool and holding it sometimes can be difficult,I prefer the type that have a pistol grip. Charging this driver was very rapid and the torque produced ample for most types of screwing job and material being ...  Read the complete review

had always wanted a cordless screwdriver and I recently treated myself to one. I am an enthusiastic though not particularly good do-it-yourselfer and whilst putting a screw in is not the most tiring thing to do all these things add up and anything which can ease the burden is welcome. The Black and Decker cost £34.49 from Argos (Catalogue number 710/8857) which puts it at the top of the price range for such screwdrivers. It comes with a wall mounted charger unit and putting this on the wall was the first job I did with the screwdriver. It also has a neat carry and storage case. There are enough bits included with the screwdriver to do any job you are ...  Read the complete review
