To me I know it is a cheap drill for manufacturing but it is on the upper end of cheap drills. It is an 18volt, not a Black and Decker 12volt, or a better HR 14volt, but this is a good powered drill at 18volt. It's not lithium, but hell it's $20. It might not last you for years building decks like a Dewalt, but I think for five times as cheap it might last half as long which is a pretty good deal.

I agree. :thumbsup:
I had no idea posting a deal on a cheap drill would be so controversial. We all have our own budget for tools and this was in no way to undermine the American worker. I try my best to buy American first. It's not particularly the drill for me... I thought it may be a deal for some.


It would be interesting to see how long this one lasts for the money. :D Danny

the big problem is not unions or competition from over seas. the problem is the MORONS in office that can't keep their hands off of your wallet.. think about it.. the most expensive thing you own is not your house or car, it's the debt these idiots are spending and taxing you AND YOUR CHILDREN into.. if you don't get with it and vote these incompetent A-holes out, there wont be an America as we know it anymore. 40 years from now the Chinese will be having their durable goods made in America because they can get it for less.. the choice is still yours for a while.. wait a little more and you'll have NO CHOICE

I'll stay out of the political debate, but I will say I have some harbor freight tools that I've had for almost 20 years. I use them rarely, and because of that, the price point was perfect for me, and they still work!

I have other tools that are used on a regular basis, and I will spend the money for quality on these.
