“Great impact driver for decks, walls, etc. ”

I purchased the impact driver because it was on sale next to the 20-Volt drill/circular saw set. I usually research tools before I buy them, but I was intrigued by the price and could use another drill for the deck we were building--so I purchased it with out researching it. In fact, I wound up using... read full review »

“Craftsman 20 volt 1/4 " Impact Driver”

I purchased this to replace another one I had that had developed a dead spot in the trigger. I really like the unit, but the dead spot is in the low speed area of the trigger. I use it alot on small delicate hardware and can't always use the 1250 inch rque, excellent Battery Lifepounds of torque that...

“Does what no other driver can do...”

My son was removing screws from concrete.  He broke two regular 19 volt drills (not Craftsman drills) trying to get the screws out.  He borrowed this driver and they came out as if they were normal screws, amazed both of us.  I'd suggest getting a 1/4 and 3/8 socket adapter for the collet so you can use your sockets with it.  For such a tiny, lightweight tool it is anything but light weight.  I used my compressor to install an awning and had to take it down to clean it...this baby treated it like a normal activity and the 20 volt Lithium's maintain the power so it doesn't get wimpy on you...

“powerful!”

This impact driver feels tough yet not too heavy.  It's much smaller and lighter than my drill yet drives screws as deep as you want to go!  Fantastic piece of equipment.  Can't believe I've never had one till now!

“Great, useful tool”

I bought this tool to expand my 20 volt lithium set. I already owned the circular saw, drill, and flashlight. Great for use as an electric screwdriver and works great for driving long screws into wood. It's a little on the heavy side, but it feels sturdy and the battery life is excellent. I recommend it to anyone who already has the 20 volt lithium set.

“Hammer time does it up fine!”

The Craftsman Pro 20V Lithium 1/4" Impact Driver is in one word ... amazing.  I've never used a true impact driver before and often wondered how a little "tapping" inside the drill could really make a difference.  WOW, I'm so glad I bought this driver.  It made my yard projects (fencing, decking) soooo much easier when putting in the longer screws or attaching or removing lag screws.  It's a huge advantage over a standard drill.  I found myself using the hammer more than my standard drill for this reason.  I picked up the 31 piece Impact Drill and Drive Set (with Speed-Lok) and glad I did...

“my favorite tool”

i am an auto technician at a new car dealership and i purchased this impact nine months ago for light work around the shop. i was impressed right away with its awesome power and soon began using it on almost every job. it has enough power to do all of the jobs that i used to use my 1/4 air impact for and most that i used my 3/8 air impact for. battery charge lasts all day with constant use and several days with intermittant use. the charge leds decrease the need for a second battery because if i see it is getting low i just charge it during lunch or in the evening!!! quick change bit is a nice... read full review »

“does it all”

This little guy is great!!!!! Used it to work on my atv, was just gonna change out some tires, eneded up striping the entire thing down and cleaning it. Also used it on a deck, drove in lag bolts with no effort. The trigger responce is smooth and true, no jumpy starts and stops. Great additon to the drill, saw, light set that i have already.

“Unhappy with 20v ion batt life,power is ok”

I was very disappointed with the 20v ion batt life. the power is ok. weight is great. I have a 19.2 system that appears to have same power and batt life. For the big differance in price compared to my 19.2 the 20 ion is not a good buy. I won,t be buying any more and will probally try another brand. I use my tools hard every day on the job, the 20v just wasn't that much better.We call that bang for the buck.

“Excellent power tool to own”

Excellent quality, very light and powerful impact driver. The price is bargain in comparison to other named brands such as Makita, Hitachi, etc. It took me less than 3 minutes to drive in 20 4" lag screws on my arbor. Do this job with a wrench and it would take more than 1 hour plus you get a sore hand and wrist for a week.

“They've done it!”

This Impact driver has serious torque, a very bright LED facing up and forward and is pretty well balanced in your hand. I work on cars all day and use it like I do my 3/8in air impact. Its rugged and very powerfull, will take off spark plugs without even ratcheting. Variable speed helps you to not overtighten and break a bolt. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone looking at the Snap-on level of impacts. This will save you alot of money and more compact and powerfull. Just make sure you buy the Battery and Charger which come seperatly from each other as well. So you will need 3 iteams total to get... read full review »
