The 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Drywall Screwdriver (model XSF03Z, tool only, batteries and charger sold separately) breaks new ground for drywall contractors. It’s powered by a Makita brushless motor for longer run time, increased power and speed and longer tool life. With the exclusive Push Drive Technology, the 18-Volt Drywall Screwdriver can be set on lock-on mode so the motor starts only when the fastener is engaged. This gives contractors a quieter work environment and also saves on battery power. It’s built for added durability with Extreme Protection Technology (XPT), which is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh job site conditions. It is ideal for hanging sheetrock, metal framing, installing subfloors, backer board and decking applications. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18-Volt Lithium-Ion series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by 18-Volt Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Makita 18-Volt Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.

Best purchase ever from home depot.

These batteries are the best: I’m a self employed carpenter and I haven’t seen better running life than the Makita batteries.
Claudia Shanahan (verified owner) –
Powerful drill, stops on a dime, and very long life batteries. I used this kit to build a tree house and it worked fantastic.
Charley Quigley (verified owner) –
As expected, quality product.
Ludwig Jacobi (verified owner) –
My last one lasted 20 years, dependable and durable, I would not be able to do the type of construction I do without something that is powerful enough to do the job, The belt clip makes overhead work much easier, I would only use Makita products, they have proven to make the job easier

Variable speed, it can’t get any better and cheaper than that in polishing granite.
Matilde Goodwin (verified owner) –
Works great and real heavy duty. It’s worth the money.

I own a set of these and whenever my Son-In-Law started a project he would ask me to bring my set over. I decided it would make a great Christmas gift for him. I love mine. I’m sure he will love his.
Rocky Christiansen (verified owner) –
Great tool but way overpriced!
Walton Hagenes (verified owner) –
The saw is smooth and powerful
Patrick Fisher (verified owner) –
I was hoping it would have a little more power than it does. The 4.0 battery I use didn’t last as long as I had hoped.

I’ve been using Makita tools for years and bought this as a gift for my son to get him started on the Makita platform.I use this particular saw and believe it’s one of the best 18V saws available.
