    I've got this as my "small" drill for assembling furniture etc etc but is a capable little drill. I would recommend.

    I bought this as a loaner so I don't have to lend out my more expensive drills. It's pretty basic, doesn't have a ratcheting chuck. Chuck is 10mm and it is fairly low powered. It is quite light and good enough for basic tasks.

    At $39 it is good value for what you get. Certainly far better than any 4V screwdriver type drill, and stuff all more expensive. Just add a $20 charger/battery combo and good to go. https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-pxc-18v-2-5ah-battery-and-…

    Ehh. I mean this was $49.98 last Black Friday with a battery and charger.

    Damn. I want the impact. Have too many drills already.

    so tempted to get a second for when drilling and screwing…. no more need to swap drill bits for phillips and back again, over and over.

    • +3

      May as well wait for a deal on an impact driver so you get something extra on top of not having to swap.

    • +1

      A drill + an impact driver is definitely better overall for drilling and screwing without changing bits.

      Don't forget the third one for countersinking

    • +3

      This is probably going to be somewhat controversial. But my least used power tool is my impact driver. I have a few drills, and use one for drilling pilot holes, one for putting in screws, and another for countersinking if needed.

      I find I have far finer control using a drill. Impact drivers in the hands of a novice is a bit like giving them a hammer to kill flies.

      With someone not used to using power tools, using an impact driver often results in broken screws, cammed out screw heads and stripped out screw holes.

      I have seen it it so often on jobsites and wasted so much time over the years fixing their F/ups.

      Impact drivers have a place, but not for finesse.

        100% this, until you hit the limits of a drill you probably don't need an impact driver.

      • Then OP could get an electric screwdriver instead (cue my usual recommendation for the Bosch PSR Select or Worx slide driver, i.e. change bit onboard ones). Will be good for their flatpack builds in future too.

        IMO someone with one drill then just getting another of the same type unless it's $10 of FB Marketplace or something is poor use of money.

    10mm chuck vs 13mm on next model up

  • Bought this one some years ago for $39 but never used it. What are the main differences for use between the two?

    • +2

      that's an impact driver, aka rattler. they're better for drilling screws etc into a material where there is significant resistance, whereas drills a better for drilling holes

    • You gotta use a plug-in chuck for regular bits. It'll shatter ceramic and probably warp sheetmetal.

  • it might be cookie-cutter but it is decently powerful as far as cookie cutters go, and on gear 1 it will snap the screws if the torque dial isn't wound back

  • +1

    This is quite a good little drill. Bought it to use as a screwdriver for assembling things in the house, but used it once on the fence, drilled many holes for driving screws in (didn't use it to drive screws though, should have tried), it performed pretty well.

    No idea how durable or reliable it is, but for the DIY'ers who use it a few times a year, this is definitely great.

    • Do you think this would be sufficient for drilling holes into brick walls for hanging shelves / paintings indoors as well? Seeing some conflicting comments here and elsewhere online re. power and capability.

      • +1

        No, you need a hammer drill. As mentioned above if you want to drill into a brick wall as if it is butter get a sds rotary hammer drill.

      • +1

        This drill is definitely weak, but for drilling into pine, it's fine, there's no chance to use it on bricks.

        If you think you need to drill into bricks every now and then, the $200 Ozito rotary hammer drill is pretty darn good. Or you could get a small size hammer drill driver, which takes very long (a few minutes vs seconds) to drill into bricks.

  • Looks very Ozito, said by a person who just bought some DeWalt 1/2 price deals ;)

  • This drill is weak. It won't be able to drive a 60mm chipboard screw into timber. I don't recommend it for daily use.

  • If you bought this one : - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/921463 . Is one of them the same as the specs seem to suggest they are different?
