What Customers Are Saying

The screwdriver has a mix of positive and negative reviews. Customers appreciate its good variety of bits, strong torque, and convenient ratcheting handle that reduces wrist strain. The 6x speed feature is also praised for driving screws faster. However, common issues include a weak magnetic bit holder causing bits to frequently fall out, the 6x speed feature losing torque and becoming difficult to use with resistance, screws holding the mechanism coming loose over time, and some units being defective or damaged. Despite these flaws, many still find the tool useful and time-saving, though the quality control and design problems prevent it from being universally recommended.

Nice little gadget

Would Recommend

I really like this tool. It is the main screwdriver in my toolbox now. The ratcheting works great and is helpful so that you don't have to reset the tool every time. The speed drive also works great, but only when there is no load on the tool, like when removing long screws after you already get it started. I use this feature most often on machined screws like into metal or electrical boxes. Fits comfortably in your hand and has a nice weight to it so it won't bounce out of your tool belt.

6x screwdriver set

Would Not Recommend

When I tried to use the unit the bits fell out of the handle. Unit mot magnetized! Poor quality control if one of the prime features was missed.

Awesome Design!

Would Recommend

This is the best screwdriver I have ever used! It cuts the time of inserting a screw in half as it works while twisting in both directions!

Worst Kobalt tool ever

Would Not Recommend

The only way the 6x speed drive works is if there is no load on the tip as in trying to drive a screw. It is not even a good screw driver if using it without the ratchet.

Not an Electric Screwdriver

Would Not Recommend

I thought it was electric; it's not I will be returning it and it was impossible to get out of the hard plastic packaging!

LOVE this screwdriver!!!

Would Recommend

I am obsessed with this screwdriver. I love that it doesn't take up a lot of space and it has many different types of bits.I love the rachet feature. I got it at a great price for Black Friday, so even better. We ordered it online and it shipped out quickly.
