Very well made, comes with a steel box and bits 2 tips.Everthing fits very nice in the box with room for extras. It performs like it should and has loads of power. The drill is a Milwaukee, what more do I need to say.
I have no idea how they do it. It has driven tens of thousands of screws (wild guess, probably low, mostly Philips #2) since then into all kinds of materials, from PTL to wallboard. I bought my Milwaukee Screwshooter Model #6753-1 in 1975. I can fully endorse all the comments re the precise clutch operation, the massive torque, the indestructibility that previous reviews have cited. Mine was of course "Made in the USA", so I cannot vouch for what Milwaukee achieves these days in terms of reliability, durability, etc., now that they have this tool "Made in China", but I just wanted to offer my own experience and advice to go check this tool out first. Mine works today as well as the day I bought it.
Maybe the quality is just as good, only time will tell. I ordered this screwdriver recently thinking it was at a good price, considering it's a Milwaukee. One of the first things I noticed with the tool was that the aluminum label plate read "made in China." This made me reconsider the value of the price paid. I was, and still am, a little disappointed though about the "made in China" surprise. I own a Milwaukee drill that was "made in the USA" and I assumed this tool would be as well.
Easy to use, light, balanced, powerful and Milwaukee smooth. NO NEED TO ORDER ANOTHER ONE. THIS KIT COMES WITH THAT STEEL CARRY CASE. Other reviewers have already said how good this tool is. They make such good motors for screwdrivers and drills. Just order this kit and you'll have it covered. This gun is a pleasure to use for hours on end.On Amazon's page, they suggest you add a steel carry case.
I've used it for a couple weeks now and don't know how I managed to hang drywall without it. In the end, it came down to Milwaukee's name, this driver having a hard nose (as opposed to soft plastic) and the torque of an electric tool. If you have to angle the gun to get screws in tight corners sometimes requires a hand screwdriver to finish them after the gun has driven them as far as it can. The only way I can get the trigger lock pushed in far enough is to use a finger on my "free" hand. This is my first drywall screwdriver, and I researched alot of them before I chose the Milwaukee. After taking a few drives to set the depth, I haven't broken the paper once, haven't snapped the head off one screw, and have hung full sheets of drywall by myself without using nails. And of course since it is electric there's an extension cord that follows you around.I may consider purchasing a cordless screwdriver in the future to elminate the cords, but this tool is going to be in my arsenal for as long as I'm working. Now my only concern has been missing the stud.Now the cons: I have big hands and cannot get the trigger lock engaged with the hand holding the grip.
