Very handy tool!
I am giving this tool 5 stars simply for its versatility and price. Being able to remove the ratchet from the handle and use in a drill is great for light duty tasks. The twist handle ratchet action is also good for when you are working in tight places where you can't easily spin the handle. It is comfortable to use and so far has not had a fault or issue. I love using this tool for outboard and light duty mechanical repairs. I'd buy another if this one broke down for any reason.

Good design, a little pricey
Like the compact design, feels heavy enough that it won't break if you actually use it as a tool.Seems a bit pricey at $30.

Dangerous Junk
Clunky and doesn't execute very well. Dangerous. Forget drilling with this. You need included bits and one broke in 10 seconds into soft wood - too much wobble in system. I'd give it no stars if they let me change it.

Not quite the chomper I'd hoped for.
I saw the Black and Decker Alligator on the Today Show. It sliced through thick branches and was easy to use. I ordered it and looked forward to swishing through my hedges with a nifty lopper/chain saw. It was not to be.
First off, The Alligator was heavier than I thought it would be, or felt heavier. Then, it jammed up with alarming frequency as I worked on my hedges. I know this isn't a hedge trimmer, but didn't perform the way I'd hoped or for what I wanted. Sad to say, it went back last week and I finished trimming my hedges with my hand driven old-fashioned lopper. It did a great job, but took a little extra time. Back to the drawing board for me. This machine might work better for someone with different needs, but for me, it was not what the woodsman ordered.

Total life one minute
Out of the box, it worked on one bolt, then the selector handle got all jammed up and the ratchet would not work at all.
