great product nice size great price, overall performance to get small jobs around the house finished in tight places perfect. Fast to recharge long battery life.

This is an excellent set for casual or infrequent use. The collection of drill bits is useful and the system uses the excellent 20 V batteries you find in other B+D tools, which is nice. There's no case or bag though.Unfortunately my battery came DOA. Just wouldn't charge. Thankfully Stanley/B+D sent me a replacement for free. Thank you! Excellent customer service.

I didn't have much experience with drills, and ended up being misled by the product description and reviews into thinking I could use the drill bits provided to drill into metal. The drill bits this comes with are "brad point drill bits", which are not multi-purpose: These are intended specifically for wood. They have a point on the end that prevents drilling into hard material - it will just spin in place without getting anywhere. You technically can manage with these bits, but it takes a long time and is likely unnecessarily dangerous. This is what I did, and how I know it manages metal just fine: I ended up accidentally breaking off the tip of one of my bits, and it drilled through metal pretty easily at that point.I initially thought that the product description was misleading, but taking another look, it just says that the drill *can* be used to drill metal (which is true), not that it includes the hardware necessary for it. However, a response from "STANLEY BLACK+DECKER" in the Q&A explicitly says that it includes bits for metal, which is untrue. I would be willing to believe that's out of ignorance of the product specifics, rather than malice though.Either way, judging by reviews and Q&A answers, this is definitely a big point of confusion which could have easily been cleared up in either the item description or manual, but wasn't. This seems like a bad decision for both customers and the manufacturer, since they got a lot of negative reviews from people thinking the drill is too weak to drill through metal. I'd deduct at least one star from that.Apart from that, it's worked well for me. The battery life seems pretty impressive - I had it sitting unused for years, and the battery still had a charge when I used it. However, initially after that wait I started seeing sparks from inside the vent. The manual says to use compressed air to clean it out regularly, and it had probably accumulated a lot of dust inside, so I'll take the blame for that. It no longer happened after cleaning it out.
