I don't use this as often as a regular drill but when I need it , I'm glad I bought one. I tried a couple of those awful angle head adapters before I bought this. What a waste of time and money ! There is simply no comparison. This takes all the work out of it. You just slap a bit in its jaws and go to work. It fits just about anywhere. The gearing is about right for speed and torque. 9.6v doesn't supply a lot of power for heavy drilling but that's not what this is for. I have an 18v Milwaukee for that. For light duty fastening and drilling in tight spaces you can't buy a better tool.

I've had my Makita angle drill for about eight years. I work with crews of eight to ten men and my angle drill has been popular as a borrow tool. Sometimes nothing else works. It has been dropped, over-torqued and just plain worked hard but keeps on ticking. I just replaced my three 9.6 standard drills with new 9.6 ones so I could keep my angle drill in service and keep a standard battery.

This is one of Makita's best products. I use one everyday andit has been extremely durable having been dropped and stepped on. Itwill get in many tight places you couldn't dream of fitting another drill. I've even had to drill a 4" hole saw with it. Its only short coming is its lack of torque, but it will always keep on turning and still get you the results you need. END
