Amazon.com Review
If your work requires you to drill or drive in a lot of tight or awkward places (under sinks, overhead, inside cabinets, between pipes, etc.), this Black & Decker five-position drill/driver may be the perfect tool for you. The drill features a compact design and swiveling head that rotates 90 degrees front and back of center, with 45-degree stops along the way. A straightaway, inline stop even provides added reach for tight spaces in which a standard power drill might not fit. Lightweight and nimble, this Black & Decker drill is extremely maneuverable, as well. A comfort-grip handle and three-finger trigger provide excellent control, while a 24-position clutch and variable speeds of 0 to 700 rpm allow the drill to power through wood, steel, or masonry without damaging bits or stripping screws along the way. --Carl Thress

 Good Idea January 4, 2007

I describe this as a cross between a drill and a power screwdriver. Is has the power (12v) of a good cordless drill, but has a smaller head that articulates. It can get into spaces a normal drill won't go. It can't quite manage as tight a space as a power screwdriver, but they don't have 12volt umph. It's well made and has a clutch feature. It uses quick realease 1/4" hex bits. It can't accept standard drillbits, unless there is some sort of adapter out there. Several drill bits,screwdriver bits, and nutdriver bits are included and store in the hardshell carrycase. An easy to use around the house tool. Bosch makes a similar tool that costs double what this does.
Versatile and easy to use June 16, 2007

I received this Black and Decker XD1200K drill/driver back in May '07. So far I like it. It's easy to use, the battery works great, and it recharges quickly. It comes with enough drills and screwdriver heads to do most jobs. I have been using it to replace the protruding nails on my sundeck with galvanized screws. I also used it to drill holes for a new latch in the metal frame of my sliding screen door. One of the things I like about it, is that you can use it in angled gun form but you can also use it as an inline straight drill/screwdriver which makes it easier for me to drill a straight hole. I think the 12V battery gives more than enough power for household repairs and projects. If you need an excellent, all-around, flexible, versatile cordless drill/screwdriver for a variety of applications, this is the one.
NOTE: It is now October 2007 and I still love this drill/screwdriver. I can adjust it easily for drilling or fastening screws (I actually read the manual). Plus I haven't needed to buy any additional drill bits or screwdriver heads for it. It even comes with ratchet sockets, which I used to fix my air conditioner fan in August. This is a wonderful, powerful all-around tool that I use a lot more than I thought I would.
NOTE: Well now it's May 2008 and yes I still love this drill/driver. I use it all the time - I own a house so there's always something.. It never wimps out. Also the battery seems to last a long time between rechargings. I'm glad I bought it.
NOTE: It's now October 2008 and this is still my favorite tool. As a gift I received a B&D drill index thingie full of drill, screwdriver, and ratchet/wrench bits that fit. So far I have only used the 2 screwdriver bits, one of the ratchet bits, and most of the drill bits that originally came with it, but I'm ready for anything now..
NOTE: It's now January 2010 and I still love this tool. I keep it on a shelf in the kitchen so I know where it is. Last week I assembled a desk with it. I still use it all the time.
Great Product- ready when you are. January 26, 2004

I recently bought a house for the first time and did not have a cordless driver. I picked this up, thinking that it might come in hand. Little did I know that EVERY single project I encountered, would involve this little guy. I have had it for several months, now, and have only recharged it a couple of times- it holds it's charge well and run like a top. I have to be honest, I have not used the rotating head on it at all, but it is narrow enough to fit in tight places and the accessory bits are just about all you could ever need. My 12v CORDED DeWalt is going to be doing nothing but collecting dust, with this thing in my arsenal. This is one of the best $50 I have ever spent.
Great Drill January 3, 2007

Although we purchased this drill as a gift to my in-laws for Christmas, We needed to borrow it to hang out new kitchen cabinets it made the job so much easier we also have a black and decker but it doesn't have the option of flipping the head to a straight or other directions which we needed to do for our do it your self job! Its a great drill! We have bought a lot of Black and Deckers products and we couldn't be happier with the products and the price.
great for small jobs November 3, 2006
