Deko Impact Driver DKID600W
A Disappointing Drill for the Price - Power Falls Short of Expectations
summarizeEditor's Summary
I was really hoping to love this Deko drill, but unfortunately, it's been a total letdown. I needed a reliable corded drill that wouldn't break the bank, but this one's just not cutting it. The build quality's decent, and the packaging's top-notch, but the power's just not there. I've used it for a week, and it's struggled to drive screws, let alone drill through tougher materials. I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty disappointed in this one. I've tried using it for some small projects, but it's just not up to par. The cord's nice and long, which is a plus, but that's about where the good stuff ends. I've had to use my heavy-duty drill to finish the job, which is just frustrating. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this drill's just not it. I'd recommend looking elsewhere for a drill that can handle the job.
