the rpm’s are extremely fast! i wish it had a potentiometer so i could vary the speed. im going to have to add one onto this myself i guess. also, the power on/off switch in a bad location

My entry level Dewalt drill with 1500 rpms was struggling with drywall screws into 2x4s. I’m doing a complete kitchen remodel. No problem with 3” star head screws in 2x4s through the new cabinets. Impressive strength. Wish I bought earlier during my remodel.

The screw gun worked as expected and is lighter than I expected, since I own the corded version. It took a while to adjust the screw set depth, which on the corded version seemed easier. Overall a good tool if you have a lot of Gyp Board to hang.

When using drywall stilts on a jobsite, I hated having cords from cut out tools and strip fed drywall screw guns. This had the same power as the corded and along with the cordless screwgun and strip magazine attachment, I enable to maintain capacity and capability while keeping a cord free floor. The quick change feature was an issue until we changed our method to hold the twist lock stationary and turn the tool instead (works with old fat fingers but strong full hand grip). The guard is the same as ever other style, so no wow factor for comparison. This tool NEEDS to be sold with a hook since cordless is meant to be with you for convenience, especially for stilt walkers, lost a star for that having to be separate purchase even when sold as kit. Had it for 4 years with no issues, cleaning it off daily before going back in the work bag.

This tool works awesome on drywall. But some of the reviews I saw said it would work on plywood and composite decking. It is very hard to control when cutting anything but drywall

Works really nice and battery lasts long. Make sure you hold it straight and keep inward pressure all the way until the screw seats and you’ll love this!!
