Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.The greatest screwdriver ever!! Gyro is amazing!!
The greatest small screwdriver I have ever used. The gyroscopic action of this thing is absolutely amazing. I didn't quite know what to expect when i bought it, I just needed a small electric screwdriver for detail work. It took me a minute to get used to the gyro action. It's different than anything I ever used before but after using it for a little bit it became second nature. This is the most amazing screwdriver ever designed. The gyro system is just intuitive. It works so good. It's hands do...

A Clever Design with Decent Power
This has to be the best tool in the industry for doing automotive interior trim without causing any damage to the panels or the hardware. Has plenty of muscle, no internal hammer and uses a slower rotation to help avoid cross threading machine screws and cracking plastic panels. I've been using one daily for 2 years and would now like a 2nd for my other shop. Only problem is I now see that everyone is currently out of stock, Including the OEM? Could someone please tell me if item will ever be ba...

Design Flaw
Hello, I am writing this review so as to possibly help people out that might be having some issue with the driver. I had a similar problem where the driver would work sometime when you pressed the button. And having a engineering background, I tend to find and solve a lot of design flaws in products I purchase. And after buying a second unit to troubleshoot the original unit, I found that there was nothing wrong with the driver itself, when the new battery was put into the older driver it worked...
Seriously Disappointed!!!!
This is my second one of these. The first one I bought was the first time they came out about 10 years ago. Still works fine but the batteries are old and wouldn't hold a charge. Bought a new one since it was cheaper than buying the batteries. The new has been back for repairs 3 times in one year due to a failure in the gyroscopic switch. It's about to go back again and I just got it back 3 months ago. Mind you I only use it a couple of times per week and the tool still looks brand new. So disap...

Buying again for both shop and truck
I've been using the other gyroscopic screwdriver for a couple years now. I will purchase this version immediately for full price if I ever find it in stock locally. I would have bought this and the fixed handle model without hesitation if it were ever stocked. Once you get accustomed to how sensitive these are, they are really great for specific tasks. These are intended for lighter duty, more exacting work. They have a surprising amount of power for an 8 volt system, and the lock up for using ...

I'm buying more to have in shop and truck
I've been using this tool for a couple years now. I found it on the display Shelf with a battery so I was able to test it out. I purchased it immediately for full price I liked it so much. Once you get accustomed to how sensitive it is, it's really great to use. It's intended for the lighter duty, more exacting work. It has a surprising amount of power for an 8 volt system, and the lock up for using it as a screwdriver is excellent. If I find it in stock again, and the other version, I'm going...

Great tool- battery contacts loose, easy to fix.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an awesome product with a common failure mode that is easy to fix but drives you nuts if you don’t know about it: the contacts of the battery come loose and it doesn’t activate the gyro reliably. 100% fix from Reddit is you just bend out the contacts on the battery a little bit and it works like a dream. Dewalt needs to fix this, but trivially easy to do on your own—so, in the end, it is a ‘yes, buy it’
