Tools and Hardware Reviews of Factory-Reconditioned Ryobi ZRD46CK 3/8-Inch VSR Clutch DriverCustomer Review: New model D47CK has BUBBLE level on TOP Summary: 5 Stars
New Ryobi model D47CK has BUBBLE level on TOP, and costs $40 at Home Depot. Mini screwdriver bits were moved to bottom of handle. HD's (SKU 839977) internet still shows model as D46CK, but the HD near me, in San Jose CA., has the new model.
I LOVEEEEEEEE this drill!
I drilled about 20(qty) 1 inch holes, with an augar, through 4 inches of hard, dried 50 years old, double 2"x4" wood, for electrical remodel. I had to set the clutch on the second to highest level, level 22. It goes to level 24. When I had it set to level 21, it would drill about 1-2 inches, then slip the clutch.
It has the power to whip your hand, and bust your knuckles if your not careful. But not as often, and not as hard(fast)as my electic corded 1/2in Porter Cable drill, which has to much power. Previoulsy more then once, the augar would stick and the my Porter Cable would whip and bust my hand, thus why I was looking for another drill. The Ryobi's clutch and variable speed gave me more control drilling in and especially out, when the augar would get stuck.
Let me say a "charged" good quality 18V or 19V battery drill, (ie., a DeWalt/Craftsman), could have done the same job. But not having to worry about the charge or buying a replacement battery is worth the $40. The other side of using corded drills, is having to run extension power cord, and making sure no one trips or accidentally unplugs, or fight the cord while your on a ladder, or etc.
The drill does get heavy after a period of time (but so do the 18v/19v battery drills). The Ryobi D47CK has good balance. Drill comes in a gray plastic carry case. The electric plug is 2 prong, no ground prong.
The "lock" button never once accidentally locked. The protected rubber ring around the D47CK's "lock" button, looks exactly the same as the internet images of the D46CK. hmmmmmm, as I review this drill, I have to ask, if different size hands, with bigger thumb knuckles, or maybe smaller thumb knuckles, or could the lenght of the hand grip, with longer or shorter knuckle location, accidentally trip the lock? I am 6ft0in tall, and would say my hands are average. Sorry for my day dreaming, but I hope it help.
And thanks to all who take the time to write reviews :' )
