DriveMaster has clearly chosen to make voltage their strong point. At time of writing, you won't find another 14.4-volt drill/driver at anywhere near this price. A couple of 9.6-volt models only come close. A higher voltage means that you will generally be able to operate the drill longer between battery charges. You can work with the DriveMaster for a good, solid hour without having to recharge the tool, which is important for things like putting together "assemble-yourself" furniture. The last thing you want to do is leave a table standing on two legs while you wait for a battery to recharge.
At 4.5 pounds, this is one of the lighter drill/drivers available, which is nice for the less burly, or anyone who wants to avoid wrist fatigue. There is a clutch with 8 torque settings, which is what makes it a drill/driver instead of just a drill. Just set the drill to the tension you want. When the drill meets a certain resistance level (for example, when your screw has been set), it will just spin without applying force to the screw. This helps prevent stripping screw heads and damaging whatever it is you are screwing into. The forward reverse switch is conveniently located above the trigger for quick and smooth directional changes. There is built-in storage for 2 bits on the base. The keyless 3/8-inch Jacob?s chuck provides quick bit changes and a strong grip.--Tod Harrick
