Editorial Reviews:

Torque, torque and more torque! This package is nothing but power. The 14.4-volt cordless impact driver and the MForce drill put super strength in your hands for the toughest tasks.

Despite being beastly powerful, this impact driver is shockingly compact and lightweight, with a total length of under 7 inches and weighing in at a mere 3-1/2 pounds including the battery. But don’t let that mislead you -- impacts per minute range from 0 to 3,200, with a maximum tightening torque of 1,240 in./lbs. And the power doesn’t quit, either, because the nickel-metal-hydride battery packs a greater capacity and longer run time than standard nickel-cadmium versions. Even though it fits snugly in the hand, it’s an absolute dynamo in the power department, and the variable speed is smooth as silk.

There are two nifty light-related features on this Makita, and we weren’t all that impressed with them on paper. But in reality, the phosphorescent rubber bumper immediately catches your eye, whether you’re rummaging in your truck, fumbling in your garage or scanning the job site for any left-behind tools. And the integrated high-output LED really does light up the workpiece, saving you time and frustration. We always like to see tools with easily accessible and easily replaced brushes, because if your tool’s in the repair shop, it’s not making you any money.

The MForce drill/driver is just as powerful and just as rugged as the impact driver, with the same high-efficiency nickel-metal-hydride battery power. Speed ranges from 0 to 400 and 0 to 1,300 rpm to tackle just about any drilling or driving job, with a Makita-made Shift Lock Drive that lets you switch quickly between modes, locking out the clutch for drilling work. And like the impact driver, the drill in this combo is compact, lightweight and easy on your hardworking body. The rubberized grip absorbs any vibration and feels great in your hand.

The fluorescent worklight will come in handy, too, whether you’re in a crawlspace or under an engine. All three pieces are Makita quality, and the price on this combo beats buying them separately. -- Kris Jensen-Van Heste

User Comments about the Makita 6935FDWDEX 14.4-Volt NiMH Cordless Impact Driver Kit with 6337 MForce Drill and ML143 Fluorescent Work Light

Superior goods as Makita usually are, plus quick delivery from the Vendor. - Stagehand Jim The light has proven to be much handier than I would have anticipated.



Bummer. I'll review each component separately:Case:The case fits all components well. Carry a spare battery if you have to crawl into some dark place.Impact driver:Just excellent. I have enjoyed this drill so much that I found myself using it more often than not when I should have been using the impact driver. This is a sweet drill and an excellent set if the manufacturing is comparable to that of five years ago when I bought this. It has a nice wire hanger that is very useful and I haven't managed to break the light cover, which is impressive. In a word, impressive. I discovered that one day in a very dark attic.


It lasts a long time on a full charge. The drill is very well-balanced and has a good feel; the forward/reverse slide button is very easy to actuate while holding the drill. (My drill was made in China, by the way. It has never sprung open, cracked, or broken, despite years of dropping, stepping on, tripping over, and general abuse. Though worn-looking on the outside, the drill still performs reliably, every day, almost like new.Alas, after using the drill and driver for five years, the batteries are beginning to lose their charge.


The dual speed is a good feature and you will be surprised at the torque on the low setting. I have used this daily for years, dropping it from ladders, using as a hammer when I shouldn't have, used it with ridiculously large wood augurs, and overloaded it and abused it at every opportunity. Usually this gives me pause, but everything in this set has been nothing but top-notch) I can recommend this product unequivocally. I have found it to be sturdy, quiet, powerful, and very well-made. I have been using the drill and driver in this kit since 2005 and have considered them among my most reliable and useful tools. Yes, it would be nice to have a directable beam, as with a flashlight, but after using this I actually prefer the fluorescent tube.


I wish I could give this kit six stars. The only drawback to the fluorescent light is that it dies all at once instead of fading. This is the tool to have when driving screws of any kind and is fantastic for decking projects and the like.


Not bad, though, after five years of continuous use and occasional abuse. The NiMh batteries have been excellent and long lasting. Mine had metal clasps- not sure if the new ones are the same or have gone to plastic.Light:The light throws off considerable illumination and has really come in handy.


It drives surprisingly well for it's size and battery rating.Drill:Outstanding. My 18 volt-using friends have always been impressed and surprised at its capability and battery life. (sorry, drill) It has NEVER let me down.



I use it anytime I need more task lighting and especially when working on electrical with the power out. At the same time it's light enough to use with finesse or use overhead. I've never had any mechanical issues with any of the tools. I work as a remodeling contractor and have owned a number of cordless drills. This kit is usually the first thing onto the job site and the last thing to leave. The drill has enough power to drive 3-4 inch wood screws, install drywall, install decking, and drill holes up to 4". I've replaced the batteries once in the three years I've owned this kit. I have a larger corded drill for mixing thin set and joint compound, but wouldn't expect any cordless to be able to do that.


This one is by far my favorite. I use the impact driver for installing lag bolts, quickly removing/replacing any hex head screws, and for putting in concrete board with ease. I would buy this drill again in a heartbeat. The light is bright and lasts 1hr+.


I bought it for use at home and occasionally for woodworking and handyman jobs with friends. This set of tools is powerful enough that I'm not embarrassed when I show up to work on something. The charger is fast and I haven't had any trouble with the batteries. This kit is just what I expected. It has performed marvelously for the last few months, and I have come to really like the worklight. I'll certainly let you know if they go bad. I use it for overnight camping and reading often.



Still, its a great deal even with the [now] useless light.Update: I happen to live 5 miles from the Makita headquarters and service center in La Mirada and they fixed my light for free in 3 days. I just bought a house and use them both often, and used the light for almost everything since we were working mostly at night after work. This drill/driver set is an excellent deal. That is, until is started flickering a few days ago and finally just shut off completely last night. I haven't used it as much since I got it back but it seems to be fully functional again. The drill and impact driver are well made and work excellently, but the light failed after only 8 days for no reason.
